I can hardly state this out loud, but I start Monday again with a teaching job. I’ve already sat through 1 day of training, so I am thinking this is going to work out. I met other teachers there and this was really the first time a Brazilian person in the room was the minority. Oh how talking freely with people whom I do not know felt so so good. I also was looking through a brochure as I was waiting and it had a lot of American cities featured with pictures, I was just trying to hold back the tears as this was the first time I knew how much I really missed my home. All things considered “there is no place like home”.
