hTHANK YOU FORTALEZA; ON MY WAY, MACAPA

Hi all,

I’m leaving Fortaleza after two amazing days…these pictures are from Urussanga…as the visit unfolds, I can confirm trying to see so many friends and visit so many different places is extremely challenging physically, even more mentally. I love a challenge…it is fun and the sense of accomplishment drives me to do more…anybody can do something…can you enjoy it, make it the most fun thing in the world as you are doing it…100% mental…so many hours are spent traveling, so few time at each destination…trying to cram as much as possible in a very short time…a continuous cycle of travel to airports, (often long drives); waiting in airports; all flights with connections; waiting for bags; trips to a new city, (often long drives); visiting schools…always the best part...is limited because of such short time at each destination…only one day…just one…34 times…it’s going great but extremely full days.

The time in Fortaleza was simply amazing in every way…last year I met amazing sisters, Bia and Yasmin…with their mom and dad...they are part of a rocket club of truly amazing kids. They asked me if I wanted to stay at a hotel or their home…I always enjoy spending time with families as it gives me a chance to get to know the parents and them to know me…I was only there 2 days, one day was Saturday, one of only 2 days on this entire visit that I was not traveling of at schools. The time there with the girls and them was so very special…I am shown so much kindness by so many friends…there really is no way to describe it…we had such an amazing time…visiting 2 schools on Friday after a late night flight, getting to sleep around 2am on Friday morning…despite all the crazy travel, the time at the schools was excellent although many IT issues at the first one

We have to stay positive and always be thankful
remembering to do our best, enjoy everything we do, believe in ourselves, and let those we care about most know (I always say this, we all need to take it to heart) …hugs and smiles …STAY SAFE, TAKE CARE, Love ya, Gabe

OLA BRAZIL, ON MY WAY…
Hi all,
After midnight…, trying to finish so much correspondence and finish so many loose ends before I leave in the morning to the airport…I’ll be gone 33 days…last year when I was heading to Brazil at this time I was fighting a very serious knee injury…I really could not walk but I went and it turned out amazing…each day I got a little better…it was really awesome…I’ve had that knee replaced, getting around very good, this will be a real test as the schedule is crazy full…each day is an adventure…the challenge is to enjoy them all, equally…
While Norway launched my speaking career, Brazil blasted me into so many amazing opportunities…I was going to Brazil 3 times a year and involved in so many different venues, all giving me international exposure and opening so many doors…I know this visit will be amazing because I have so many very good friends throughout the country…
I still have to pack…75% of what I take are gifts for the schools and for kids…I love giving gifts…especially if it has NASA on it…it makes the kids feel so special…
We have to stay positive and always be thankful… remembering to do our best, enjoy everything we do, believe in ourselves, and let those we care about most know (I always say this, we all need to take it to heart) …hugs and smiles …STAY SAFE, TAKE CARE, Love ya, Gabe
