When I planned my trip to Brazil, I confess that I didn’t create a lot of expectations about anything. Today, after 1 month living in “Wonderful city” (Rio de Janeiro) I m sure the location is perfect! The relationship with the family is great. Dani is a sister to me and Tati, who is just a little older than me, is like a mother. The 4 weeks I spent in school were wonderful. The teacher and the school were excellent and now I have a very clear sense of the language despite the short time. This week I start the volunteer work at the project. I m sure it will be a great opportunity not only to continue learning Portuguese but also for my self-growth and knowledge.
