I don’t know whether to laugh or cry, but on the tail of one of the best Family weekends I have had in Brasil, I just found out that soon I will be visiting my family in America. It couldn’t have happened at a better time. Last weekend was Rodrigo’s sister wedding, she happened to marry another American. His wonderful family was in Brasil and I became the translator at times. You know Watch one, Do one & Teach one… well, I finally got to share my knowledge of Brasil and do my best at translating for another foreigner. It was difficult as I have a long way to go, but finally it became a different way of looking at things.
I have been thinking about writing my 1 year later blog, but nothing seemed right until now. Last weekend with my family a year later, it became clear to me the moment in time where I got to see my year of Progress and… ya know what? I am happy with my results. Sure it was a long year and sure it was hard at times to start over completely, but it was worth it. Now I am on the other side where it is time to start doing the other things like functioning and it’s time for me to stop comparing & stop whining. As a good friend would always say to me “Accept the reality that you created”. In Brasil I think that is “Gringo” status.
Here are some pictures of a Fantastic Weekend in Brasil. Congrats Daniela & Adam!
