I am here for Friends

About Me


I'm an urban princess. A mix of Portugese-Chinese-American and I'm the result. I love to travel and Tuscany and Paris are two of my favorite places in the world. I love sports particularly windsurfing and wake boarding. Basically I'm either in stilettos or barefoot. I love to have fun which is translated into clubbin' and kickin' it back with my crew.
I am temporarily living in South Africa and so far it has been amazing since I moved out here. I have met a good mix of people and I'd like to say that I have grown as a person through these new established relationships. I am still a hopeless romantic and I'm happy to say that I am blessed to be with the kindest, most loving and beautiful person who makes me fall in love with him every single day. I enjoy waking up everyday knowing I'll go through the day with him. It was surely worth the wait.
Thank you all for the kind words and compliments. There's a lot of mail to just go through in one sitting so if I don't get to personally say thank you...know I really meant to say thank you.
XOXO, Yana

Books:


When I close a book I open life. I hear faltering cries among harbours. Copper ignots slide down sand-pits to Tocopilla. Night time. Among the islands our ocean throbs with fish, touches the feet, the thighs, the chalk ribs of my country. The whole of night clings to its shores, by dawn it wakes up singing as if it had excited a guitar.The ocean's surge is calling. The wind calls me and Rodriguez calls, and Jose Antonio-- I got a telegram from the "Mine" Union and the one I love (whose name I won't let out) expects me in Bucalemu.No book has been able to wrap me in paper, to fill me up with typography, with heavenly imprints or was ever able to bind my eyes, I come out of books to people orchards with the hoarse family of my song, to work the burning metals or to eat smoked beef by mountain firesides. I love adventurous books, books of forest or snow, depth or sky but hate the spider book in which thought has laid poisonous wires to trap the juvenile and circling fly. Book, let me go.I won't go clothed in volumes, I don't come out of collected works, my poems have not eaten poems-- they devour exciting happenings, feed on rough weather, and dig their food out of earth and men. I'm on my way with dust in my shoes free of mythology: send books back to their shelves, I'm going down into the streets. I learned about life from life itself, love I learned in a single kiss and could teach no one anything except that I have lived with something in common among men, when fighting with them, when saying all their say in my song. -Ode to the book, Pablo NerudaIM A BIG PAOLO COELHO AND ISABEL ALLENDE FAN!!! BY THE RIVER PIEDRA I SAT DOWN AND WEPT, VERONICA DECIDES TO DIE, THE ALCHEMIST, THE HOUSE OF SPIRITS

searching and satisfaction

I've been on a string of dates for the past month and looking back, unexpectedly, an enormous weight of weariness sets in. I feel like I'm caught between idealism and reality and its a hollow place...
