I visited 8/MG Grupo Escoteiro Ouro Preto today and I enjoyed the time engaged in their activities. They are preparing for camping in the near future and, next Saturday, they will learn about tents and backpack.

When moving cities, one of the challenges that I face is to rewire my brain to know the local prices and where I will find good deals.

I searched for a Android app to help me keep track of prices of grocery shop and I decided to give a try to Price Reminder (Price Book). So far I’m happy with it.

Price Reminder (Price Book) isn’t open source. I searched at F-Droid but I didn’t find a similar app.

In 2019, I read a few books and watched some YouTube videos about minimalism.

This year, I decided to try live as a minimalism. I’m limiting my possessions in Ouro Preto, Brazil but I still have some possessions in the UK that I didn’t have time to discart or move to Brazil.
