Quinta da Regaleira-Sintra ~ Portugal
An underground tunnel with a spiral staircase, supported by carved columns, down to the bottom of the well through nine landings. The nine hole round landings, separated by fifteen steps, evoke references to Dante’s Divine Comedy, and may represent the nine circles of hell, paradise, or purgatory.
The well is connected to laberíticas caves that lead to a spooky garden surrounded by a lake.
The land that is now Quinta da Regaleira had many owners through time. But in 1892 it belonged to the Barons of Regaleira, a family of rich merchants from Porto, when it was purchased that year by Carvalho Monteiro for 25,000 réis. Monteiro wished to build a bewildering place where he could gather symbols that would reflect his interests and ideologies. With the assistance of the Italian architect Luigi Manini, he designed the 4-hectare estate with its enigmatic buildings, believed to hide symbols related to alchemy, Masonry, the Knights Templar, and the Rosicrucians. The architecture of the estate evokes Roman, Gothic, Renaissance and Manueline architectural styles. The construction of the current estate commenced in 1904 and most of it was concluded by 1910.Take me there. Now
AAAH

This guy stole my friend’s phone does anyone know him? Here is what she had to write about it.
“Guys, THIS KID STOLE MY PHONE FROM BETA AT WESLEYAN THIS SATURDAY. He just uploaded this picture of himself and it came up on my icould. Does anyone recognize him? He was hanging out with me when I realized my phone was gone AND HE PRETENDED TO HELP ME LOOK FOR IT. It looks to me like a might be in high school from the background. HELP ME FIND OUT WHO THIS A HOLE IS.”
Let’s pass this around and help my friend Molly out.
I’ve had my phone stolen before and it would’ve been extra frustrating had the jerk been taking selfies that uploaded to my cloud on it. Help this lady!
(Also whoever knows Molly - I’ve only met her a couple of times - maybe Wesleyan can help? They seem like a generally nice place and it’s a small school, so someone’s gotta know who this dude is…)

Did you guys know I used to want to be an architect? Pictures like this do for me what pictures of like… fancy weddings or jewelry do to other ladies. To each her own, but I’ll take an interestingly designed home, please.

I don’t think I’ve ever posted anything anywhere of me singing despite having been a singer for 16 years, so I feel slightly weird about it but I’m doing it anyway cause I need to get better about stuff like that.
My friend and I were testing out some audio equipment & I did one quick unaltered take of this jazzy little a capella Regina song I love that she sings to kick off her concerts called “Ain’t No Cover”. If it’s possibly your thing, take a listen. Hope you like it.
