I have about 2 days left and I´m trying not to think about leaving. So, instead I will write 2 lists about what I will miss most about Brazil, and what I am homesick for in Canada.
What I Will Miss About Brazil

- Sorocaba´s sushi
- Lineu
- shopping for clothes with Michelle
- Edson making fun of me in Portuguese
- Isabella´s smile
- my little room
