One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was selected to study six months at Uppsala, Sweden in a competitive public announcement offered my university in Brazil. However, I did not have money to travel :( So, I sold i lot of snacks and organized charity events to save money. I had to save around USD 6.000 in 8 months! I worked a lot! But now, I'm in Sweden and having one of the most crazy experience in my life!
