This was found outside of the Vila Madalena Metro Station in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
“More Love, Please” (It rhymes in Portuguese)
On my way to work on Friday I was intrigued by the people standing around the crosswalk with a video camera, but crossed on the other side of the street so as not to get in the way.
On my way home I saw this in the crosswalk:
Turns out it was a city-wide public art project, and crosswalks everywhere were being painted! I even found a video of this specific crosswalk being painted.
Also, here’s a view of the plaza I have to walk through every day on my home from work…kinda cute, no?
When I was in Santiago I started doing a Wall Art of the Week posting on my blog…but I only made it to Week 3. Unfortunately, I still can’t promise a weekly post, but the alliteration is just too good for me to change it to Wall Art of When I Find Something Beautiful and Remember to Post It. So here I am, picking up at Week 4:
“Quando nasce um filho, nasce uma mãe” –
“When a child is born, a mother is born”
Shout out to my cousin Kristen and her little fishbowl. ![]()
Unfortunately, I will have to temporarily retire Fabulous ‘Do of the Week until I once again make my way to a location that has ridiculous hairstyles.

This photo was taken in Valparaiso somewhere around Cerro Alegre. I took it as a shout out to Dignidad Sin Fronteras, the theater troup I worked with last semester.
When we were walking downtown exploring in our first couple days we walked past this mural as it was being painted! It’s painted on a temporary wooden wall they put up in front of a building that burned down, it’s located across the street from Casa Central, one of the campuses of La Catolica.
