The record and its context.

Life is very much about the people around us. Our development is deeply connected to the people we interact with. Each person is the sum of the experiences they have lived. If you see me talking to someone, I am either teaching something or learning something. Usually, both! 😁

Photos from some recent meetings here in Portugal, with people from dozens of nations, different cultures, worldviews, ways of seeing the cosmos and perceptions of life, with different dreams and ideas. It has been incredible. 😎

And you, how have you been expanding and nurturing your network lately? 🚀

[EN After] A vida é muito sobre as pessoas que nos cercam. Nossa evolução tem relação profunda com quem interagimos. Cada pessoa é a soma das experiências que viveu. Se você me ver conversando com alguém, ou estou ensinando algo, ou estou aprendendo algo. Geralmente, ambas as coisas! 😁 Fotos de alguns dos encontros recentes aqui em Portugal, com pessoas de dezenas de nações, diferentes culturas, visões de mundo, cosmo-visões e percepções sobre a vida, com diferentes sonhos e ideias. Tem sido incrível. 😎 E você, como tem expandido e nutrido seu network ultimamente? 🚀 ….. Life is about the people that surround us. Evolution has a deep relation with who we interact with. Each person is a sum of all the experiences they have lived. If you see me talking with someone, either I am teaching something or learning something. These are just a couple of recent meetings here in Portugal with people from dozens of nations, different cultures, worldviews, cosmo views, and perceptions about life, with different kinds of dreams and ideas. I am enjoying a lot connecting with them. It has been amazing! How are you expanding and nurturing your network recently? **Reference:** “We are the average of the five people we spend the most time with.” — Jim Rohn 😊

The next chapter could start here.
