I grew up looking at the same airs, where the desire to visit new places was only in will, at 18 I bought my own cell phone so it was a door opening full of information and opportunities flew towards me, but the difficulty of making the dream come true it was still close, but the dream would remain distant. At the age of 20 I had the opportunity to visit the city of São Paulo and it was the strangest and most shameful trip of my life, everything was new starting with not knowing how to buy tickets, and people looked at me with amusement when I didn't know how to get in. a train, and the escalator moved by itself, I didn’t need to walk around with it in motion, I couldn’t bathe in the bare barefoot rain, and I wonder what people thought seeing me taking a bath barefoot on the street, but it was and it’s the trip that took me for an advanced stage of knowledge, I had never seen such a high self-esteem of a person wearing a shoelace as a belt, or a person wearing neon green false eyelashes on the Street, and everything was considered so normal ... People with habits I didn't know, new ideas about the world, a culture rich in modernism, my eyes watered when I saw a car from the last century was new to me, when I saw monuments that were crucial to the trajectory of the formation of the great metropolis which is today, I saw everything inside the story books and wondered if one day I would know São Paulo, it didn't seem like something distant anymore, in the past, now it was close and so real that it just showed me that everything is possible, I had good experiences and bad and all I wanted to bring in my luggage as an apprenticeship of what was to come, because I was determined not to stop. On the drive home I looked through the bus window at the places that passed before my eyes, it impelled me to want more, to want to know not only Brazil but the world, and learn to be kind to everyone without looking at Who, to know cultures, people, customs and to live intensely rejoicing my soul and my eyes with the new world, and doing good works wherever I go.
