Swimming against the stream


I went to France when I left Brazil. That seemed like the normal thing to do as a dancer. I didn't like it, that's how I ended up in Budapest. I started to teach in language schools, realised I'm good with kids meanwhile I tried to figure out the best way to navigate in the bureaucracy. I started to give dance classes because one of my friends and this is how creating and working with people is connected in my life. I just let the things happen and it seemed all right.
