Alegria is the Portuguese word for happiness and joyfulness, a little bit of each, and it has a good reason to be the title of this post, the first one of many I hope. I would like to start this blog, which has is no other purpose than talk about the subjects of my interest, speaking the beautiful spectacle named Alegria from Cirque du Soleil.

It is definitely the modern circus, blending beautiful melodies with astonish performances that demands the max of the human body. But what really impressed me was that they are the perfect example of a successful project, thought to entertain people for almost 2 hours with a journey, with a beginning, middle and an end.

And this exactly how I think that a good project should be developed. A well thought start, full of energy, a development over helmed in sweaty and tears and a delivery followed by smiles and compliments.

After five years involved with internet and software, using and developing them, I believe this is how things work. No pain no gain, and a lot of fun in the middle!

This blog will not be about me, but what interest me, which means, Life, Work, Design, Games and the daily life of a human being. My name is Diego Homem and welcome to my blog!
