New start


Depois de um ano em um país super frio é bom estar de volta a esse clima tropical
(mesmo que agora eu esteja de volta na minha cidadezinha fria no sudeste do país, bem longe da Bahia aonde eu tirei essa foto no início do mês...)

De volta ao bom e velho país (nada supera esse nosso Brasil), voltando a falar a língua nativa (a tortura da gramática portuguesa), revendo velhos amigos, visitando a família linda, mudando pra uma cidade nova (mais uma vez), indo pra uma escola nova (ninguém merece primeiro dia de aula), conhecendo gente nova (não estou preparada pra ser sociável), mudando o cabelo (espero né gente) E dando ao blog um cabeçalho novo, além de estar mudando algumas coisas por aqui.
Ufa, quanta coisa nova em julho minha gente! Será que dou conta? Espero que sim né!
Acontece que voltar pra casa é mais difícil do que eu pensava!

After a year in an oh so cold country it's good to be back to this tropical country
(even though I'm back to my cold little city south of where this picture was taken in the beginning of the month...)

Back to the old country, talking the native language, seeing old friends, going to visit the fam, moving into a new city (once more), going to a new school (torture of the first day all over again), meeting new people (ready to be nice?), (hopefully) getting a new hair cut aand giving the blog a new header, changing some stuff around here.
Dang, that's a lot! I wonder if I'll get through this month lol
K after this oh so busy speech I need to say: being home is harder than I thought!

Magical Journey to Brasil





 (These images do not belong to me)

Macy's is celebrating the beauty and culture of Brasil this summer with fashion, food and accessories inspired by the tropical paradise my country is. Thought I'd share this with you guys after having a nice long weekend hanging out with my friends in Canada as I get ready to go back home to my Brasil!

A loje de departamento americana Macy's está celebrando a beleza e cultura do Brasil esse verão com moda, acessórios e comida inspiradas no paraíso tropical que nosso país maravilhoso é. Eu pensei em compartilhar isso com vocês depois de um fim de semana mais que gostoso com meus amigos do Canadá enquanto eu me preparo para voltar pro meu Brasil brasileiro!

Where do I belong?

(This image does not belong to me)

This week two of my best friend's had their birthdays, one of them back in Brazil and the other here in Canada. I was able to celebrate with my Canadian friend but not with the Brazilian... next year it will be the opposite, I'll be close to my Brazilian friends but far from the Canadian ones.

Being an exchange student divides us in between two worlds, all of the sudden we have two homes, two of our own countries, two parallel universes which are only connected by ourselves. We will always be missing someone, somewhere, something that in our minds was supposed to be different. That is the beauty and the challenge of being an exchange student, being only one person and belonging to two different places.

Calgary's version of Carnaval







A associação brasileira em Calgary fez uma festa de Carnaval que eu comentei em um post anterior....
A festa foi boa teve samba, capoeira e música ao vivo. A comida não deixou a desejar, teve feijão tropeiro e pra beber Guaraná e pra quem tem 18 anos teve até caipirinha da boa.
Foi uma noite muito boa, dancei demais com os intercambistas da França, Venezuela, outro brasileiro e um canadense...

The next step is...

I`ve been to Calgary the last two days, which was really fun. Today I bought my camera and the next step is to get a computer to upload them.... This weekend I`m off to (camp) orientation and meeting all the other inbounds and rebounds. I`m loving it here even though I miss Brazil (everyone and everything that`s there) a lot....

I'll miss you guys so much




Everyday that goes by just makes me realize how bad I'll miss my friends!!
But  it's worth it because of the amazing experience I'll have. 
In a few days there will be missing only a month for me to leave, then I'll start the countdown...

From Brazil to Canada










I want my first post here to be about the reason I made this blog...
I'll report here all of my experiences before, during and after my exchange year in Canada. Which I think will be amazing!!
I'm going to Alberta through Rotary Youth Exchange Program. My sponsor district is D4620 and my sponsor club is Rotary Club Sorocaba - Granja Olga. My host district is D5360 and my host club is the Rotary Club of Cochrane. I'll probably be leaving in August, so for now you can hear all about my anxiety and my crescent  enthusiasm to go!
I won't only be talking about my exchange, but also about my life, personal opinions, thoughts, ideas, fashion, music, boys.... all of the things that are part of a teenager's life!
Ok, there will probably be more pictures than words, cuz I'm definitely a terrible writer...
Anyway, I hope you like it.
