One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the best moments of my life so far was the first time I saw snow .. haha! It may seem silly, but it's totally true! My hometown does not snow very often although it is quite cold,but and in August of 1994 I had my first contact with snow (I was 5 years old). These memories of playing with the snow still very many vivid even after almost 20 years!

Another defining moment was very recent, about 02 months ago when I embarked for Portugal in seeking to achieve one of my personal dreams: to live and study in Europe. The dismissal of the special people who left in Brazil was very difficult, but each and every choice has its good parts and bad. And so far, my choice is very happy! In 02 months I had the opportunity to meet great people and learn a lot from each one. I hope at the end of my exchange I can return to Brazil with a feeling of accomplishment!
