Day 46 - Bank

[dotinthesky]

After 7 months of living in Brazil, I finally opened a bank account.

I’ve set myself up as a translator and need somewhere for my future fortune to go. My new account also allows me to generate invoices.

Took them an hour to call me over. Then I got moved on to the bank manager. She was curious to know how long I’d lived in London – she’s planning a holiday there in May. She was even more curious about my birth in South Africa. She asked me to write down “Johannesburg” so she could look it up later on Google.

I can imagine how complicated it must feel, especially when you consider your own son as well and his own experience of these cultures.

When Soleimani was killed, the media painted such a WWIII scenario - but it seems to have died down a bit, hasn't it? Though I imagine the US are planning other strikes.

I have suspected that the impending 'impeachment' thing had something to do with it. Sadly, 'fear' is a rather effective currency of the world these days.
