It’s been quite a while since I’ve really traveled to a faraway place. Getting out of the routine, changing the scenery, breathing different air? Yeah, the desire is there, but the rush of daily life, work, responsibilities — the lack of money — all of that keeps pushing me to stay put. My last “trip”, considering traveling as actually taking an intercity bus and leaving my town, was last month, during the long Easter holiday. We went to a nearby city, where my boyfriend’s mom lives. Not very far, but it was already something different.

It was fun because, besides getting out of the routine, we met up with my boyfriend’s cousins who were there, and it’s really fun like that. We talk, play some games, cards, go to the court, play soccer, volleyball… The feeling of being with people who are part of your world, even if they’re from his family, brings a mix of belonging and comfort that’s hard to describe.

But deep down, I miss a trip that’s more “mine,” you know? The kind that I plan, dream about, and throw myself into with all my heart, even if it’s just for a few days. I really want to feel the smell of the road, listen to music in the car while the scenery slowly changes, heading to a new place. I want to lose track of time a little, wake up without rushing, discover hidden spots, observe different architecture. But mainly, I want to feel that freedom that only a true trip can give, where time seems to expand and you find yourself in the middle of the immensity of the world.

My next real trip, if everything goes right and nothing goes wrong, should be in August. I’m planning to go to São Paulo for the I Wanna Be Tour festival, where one of the headliners will be Good Charlotte — my favorite band, which I’ve never had the chance to see live. I already get excited just thinking about it! It’s going to be a unique experience because, besides finally seeing their show, it will be a festival with other bands that I also really like. I’m already imagining the songs I’ll sing along to, the energy of the crowd, the São Paulo heat, and that feeling that only a live show can give.

I also have this huge desire to hit the road and get a little lost — in the good sense — somewhere I’ve never been. I want to disconnect from the routine, put my phone on airplane mode, and just live in the moment. I want to take those trips that are remembered not only for the places but for the sensations: the wind on my face, the smell of wet earth after the rain, the taste of simple food made with care, the song that plays at just the right time.

This next trip — which doesn’t even have a set date yet — also carries the promise of being a moment to take care of myself, to recharge my energy and return to routine with a lighter mind and a full heart. Because traveling isn’t just about seeing places, it’s about finding yourself again, it’s about making a necessary and urgent pause in life to remember what really matters.

[PT]

Faz bastante tempo que eu não viajo pra lugar longe de verdade. Sair da rotina, mudar de cenário, respirar outros ares? Pois é, a vontade tá ali, mas a correria do dia a dia, o trabalho, as responsabilidades - a falta de dinheiro -, tudo vai empurrando a gente pra ficar no lugar. Minha última "viagem", considerando viajar mesmo como pegar um ônibus intermunicipal e sair da minha cidade, foi no mês passado, durante o superferiadão da Páscoa. A gente foi pra uma cidade vizinha, onde a mãe do meu namorado mora. Nada muito distante, mas já foi uma coisa diferente.

Foi divertido, porque além de sair da rotina, a gente se encontrou com os primos do meu namorado que estavam lá e é bem divertido assim. A gente conversa, joga uns jogos, baralho, vai pra quadra, futebol, vôlei... A sensação de estar junto com pessoas que fazem parte do seu mundo, mesmo que sejam da família dele, traz uma mistura de pertencimento e conforto que é difícil de descrever.

Mas, no fundo, eu sinto falta de uma viagem mais "minha", sabe? Daquelas que eu planejo, sonho e me jogo de corpo e alma, nem que seja só por alguns dias. Quero muito sentir o cheiro da estrada, ouvir músicas no carro enquanto o cenário vai mudando devagar, indo para um lugar novo. Quero perder um pouco a noção do tempo, acordar sem pressa, descobrir lugares escondidos, observar a arquitetura diferente. Mas principalmente, quero sentir aquela liberdade que só uma viagem verdadeira consegue dar, onde o tempo parece se dilatar e a gente se encontra consigo mesmo no meio da imensidão do mundo.

Minha próxima viagem de verdade, se tudo der certo e nada der errado, deve ser em agosto. Estou planejando ir para São Paulo para o festival I Wanna Be Tour, onde um dos headliners será o Good Charlotte — minha banda favorita, que eu nunca tive a chance de ver ao vivo. Já fico ansiosa só de pensar! Vai ser uma experiência única, porque além de finalmente assistir a um show deles, vai ser um festival com outras bandas que eu curto muito também. Já tô até imaginando as músicas que vou cantar junto, a energia do público, o calor paulistano e aquele sentimento que só um show ao vivo consegue proporcionar.

Ainda tenho também uma vontade enorme de pegar a estrada e me perder um pouco – no bom sentido – em algum canto que eu nunca tenha estado. Quero me desconectar da rotina, deixar o celular no modo avião e simplesmente viver o presente. Quero fazer aquelas viagens que ficam marcadas não só pelos lugares, mas pelas sensações: o vento no rosto, o cheiro da terra molhada depois da chuva, o sabor de uma comida simples feita com carinho, a música que toca na hora certa.

Essa próxima viagem - que nem tem uma data marcada - também tem a promessa de ser um momento para cuidar de mim, para recarregar as energias e voltar para a rotina com a cabeça mais leve e o coração cheio. Porque viajar não é só conhecer lugares, é se reencontrar, é fazer uma pausa necessária e urgente na vida para lembrar do que realmente importa.

Our move?
🔹 Unite voices: Use #bilpcoin or #bpc to highlight censorship & demand accountability.
🔹 Document abuse: Share evidence of unfair downvotes, self-voting scams, and double standards.
🔹 Push for reform: Advocate for transparent governance, vote caps, and community-driven rules.

Decentralization isn’t just a feature—it’s a fight. Let’s model fairness, rally allies, and pressure Hive to live up to its ideals.
