I'm Amanda, an exchange student from Brazil. I left home when I was 17 years old to have a new living experience. I've been to a lot of countries and met different kinds of people and cultures. I love travelling, playing sports, hiking, dancing, going out and going to school,which is part of becoming mature and accepting that a diploma makes a huge difference.I go back to Brazil once a year to visit my family. We all get together in a huge family reunion party!! I have 75 cousins. YES, 75!!! The best family ever! lol. My best friends are also there. Real people who are always by my side no matter what. I'm a dreamer.I still believe in love, forgiveness, understanding and specially in God. It's hard to see those principles fading away and that is the reason why some people I had met in Cali are not part of my life anymore. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WORKING OUT! It makes my body and mind stronger and ready to fight any illness. I can't stand lazy people. What would make me believe they care about others if they don't even care about themselves?
I HATE hypocrits and NARROW-MINDED PEOPLE. I LOVE ARTISTIC, out-going, and ENERGETIC people!! Those who can make a difference and have something going on in their lives. People who want it all and struggle to get where they want. Those who work hard,those who fall but get up right away to start it over and do it better! I'M MOTIVATED BY STRONG PEOPLE. Specially HARD-WORKING WOMEN who are out there showing this generation that we are more than just pretty faces. Hollywood is so fake! EWW.
One of my dreams is to go to every single place on earth and write a book sharing my experience. Take pictures, make friends, BE IN LOVE A 100 TIMES , talk to strangers, laugh with them, cry with them... I can't wait to make that come true. And I will!
