I was living in Ubatuba, Sao Paulo, a small surf town on the south eastern coast of Brazil. I am a 19 year old American forced to come to Brazil, as it was hard to live alone in Miami, and my parents were absolutely tired of the USA. So i came with them, studied my ass off to try to go to a specific college, but I didn’t pass their admissions test. I stayed one year doing nothing (but surfing) in a small town. I couldn’t stand the feeling of not growing in life, of wasting time.
So in a span of three days, I decided to move to Sao Paulo, the third largest Metropolis in the world. I packed my bags and didn’t think twice about living on my own. Arriving in Sao Paulo, i used a bit of money to find a place, but I slept in a hotel for the first day. Second day, i left my stuff at my new rented room and went to a college to take their admissions test that same day. Third day I was told I passed. Fourth day I was officially a student at the college and attending. I’m at my fourth week in Sao Paulo now, but I definitely need a job as my money is nearly gone.
I’ve been to a few interviews, two in the past two days. Hopefully, if God will, one of them will be mine.
