I remember since I was a child, I had the dream going to another country
learn a new language, meet a new culture
I don't know, to see everything I saw on TV or I read in books
but I never had this opportunity
so far
well, actually this video was started on October 20
so, let's go back a little bit
this is a video about my trip to Canada
actually about any other things as well, but mostly about my trip
to Canada
that first day really happened
a lot of things, but I couldn't record so good
for exemple I was picking up
my first flight to Campinas
and that was my first time I met
in person, two friends, I've been talking for a long time on the internet
which is "Soldado" and "Hawk"
Look who's there
what's up man
and that day we spent the whole afternoon in Campinas
just because my next flight was only going to be at night
we went to "outback" to have lunch
and take a nice look at this take I recorded
after that we spent our time playing video games
guys, it's been a few hours since I got here in Campinas
and to go to the next flight
I stopped here just a while
and I'm with "Hawkito"
and along with "Soldado" as well
film here, here I can see
I don't know if you can see, because he is driving now,
what time is it? about 5 o'clock?
20 to 6 o'clock, and maybe Davi will miss his flight
if continue this transit to São Paulo
and it's funny, these're moments that I see
which isn't because we're "friends over the internet"
that we are not real friends, actually is someone you can't see
everyday, but I know I can tell
so much with them, and they with me
even when we were
stuck in the traffic jam of São Paulo, and I almost miss my flight to Canada
- FIRST LESSON -
If I wanna travel, at least I have to do
is arriving at the airport on time
"at least"
yeah, it was just that lesson
- NEXT DAY -
Canada, october 2017
we always get that expectation about going to a place you've never gone before
and mainly me, because I arrived in Canada on my birthday
I couldn't wait to see the house,
to see the street and the shcool
guys, look where I am
I'm already on Sunday, yesterday I couldn't record anything
~let me cross the street~
and look where I am, it does look like an American movie
and finally it's not raining today
it's too damn cold, I mean it's so good
I woke up early today because yesterday
I bought my skytrain card, but I had no money
to be able to recharge
So, for sure, I'll do this today
and also I need to buy gloves, as I said it's so cold
and I gonna tell you the truth, yesterday on my birthday was the best day ever
the place is amazing, the house is very pretty
I just ate my breakfast
I think it's more like a Brunch
and now I'm going to the skytrain
whatever is interesting, I'll film for you guys
I stayed for 45 days in Vancouver and as much as I want to put each
second on this video, I really recorded a lot of things
so let's skip a few days and
I'll put the coolest parts of this trip
today is definitely one of the most beautiful days I've seen since I got here
it's very close to Halloween and right now I'm coming back
downtown, because I'm going along with other people to buy our
Halloween costume, and tomorrow on Friday gonna be the school Halloween party
I'm very, very excited! since I was a child
Halloween was one of the holidays I like the most
but unfortunately in Brazil, we don't celebrate Halloween
so this time it's definitely going to be my first Halloween ever
and take a look on my back
this place, people usually go
to walk, look that
everybody there
and man, it's too beautiful
let's there, I can't be late
I have to go fast to arrive on time at the store
I just got home and I found at the store all the things I needed
for the Halloween
and I really wanna show you guys
ok, let's there
let me see where I can start
ok, I am going dressed up as a sad clown
so, to start I made a bow tie by myself
I did with an old cloth
it's great
and the red nose, just look
actually I bought two, but this one is too bad to breathe and
I didn't like it
I'll use this one right here
some paints to face, ok
for me
this is very cheap here on the dollarstore
I don't know if you can see here, but
I paid one dollar for that one
and also some balloons, and a string
I think it'll be perfect for my costume
sad clown
and I do not know very well what to expect, but
I am so freaking anxious
so, it's getting late
I am going to bed now, and tomorrow I'll continue recording
and that wasn't my first halloween, but it was also my first time
I did the jack o'lantern
there are the pumpkins, people make
awesome designs
and it's not that hard
just have the courage to stick your hand in the pumpkin
I felt like a fulfilled child when I saw what I had done
- SECOND LESSON -
actually, do not have a second lesson, I just wanna show you this cool drawing
I did
Canada, november 2017
I arrived Vancouver at the end of autumn
so the forecast was only a few more sunny days
I couldn't stay at home, because in next week would start winter
I knew those all colourful leaves would fall
and I can say I really enjoyed
every second I could outside
I think today is going to be one of the last sunny days of the year here in Vancouver
so, let's do something outside
and I am at Stanley Park for a ride
no less than, I rented a bicycle to ride around here and
look at this view
holy shit
what a good felling
I think this is one of the things everyibe should have the chance to do sometimes in life
man
what a nice place
so now I'm going to have a ride here again
and I wanna go to Lions gate bridge
there was recorded a lot of movies, so there is a pretty interesting bridge
well I'll there to register that picture!
every time I travel I try to learn something
and on this place seemed everyone was happy
I think that's why people travel, people go out their houses, but our
problems "go on vacation"
actually no, maybe we leave our homes with our problems
but we won't show the worst part of our lives to somebody
I think I cannot see it on camera
but it was snowy here tonight
I mean, it was almost
anything, and look like someone dropped dust all over this neighbourhood
because it's just a little, some roofs are
snow white, some leaves on the ground
well then it's snowing this morning, probably means winter
is coming and probably we're going to see snow in the next days
I hope it's snowy
please, I wanna see snow
and I was almost right
as much as winter was coming, that day was the closest I
was to see snow
but it's ok
and even it's almost nothing of
snow, it's really cool when I woke up and I looked out the window, and I saw snow at the roof and
around the bottom was all white, so I realize
it was snow
I want to see snow
look at that car over there
probably that car
it was in a place full of snow and came here
during the time I stayed there I met a lots of nice people
and after I started my studies, a lot of things happened
for exemple, one day
that I won't forget was when we went ice skating
it was my first time doing that, and I didn't do so badly
that same day we went to an Italian restaurant
that although
it was so cold, it was cool
in fact what makes worth that
night, was recorded the fantastic day I had with my friends
each one wrote in my journal in their native language, and as much as I read
today, and I don't understand anything, no problem, I remember
each second of that day
also had some crazy days we went to Karaoke
I won't show this so much, because it's better not to be ashamed on the internet
also something very cool, every day we went to
my friends' country restaurant
we went to Japanese restaurant
African
Mexican
Saudi Arabian
and also Korean restaurant
and of course I couldn't record everything
but I could find a video, when I was teaching some things
in Portuguese
I won't shut up
shut up
shut up
"shut up"
shut up you, behave, okay honey?
there was one day I went to suspension bridge park
that place is beautiful, it seemed scenery from the twilight movie
in fact, my teacher said that some scanes were actually filmed there
I don't have much time to record, but
I am above the bridge
it sucks... worst time ever, for the memory card get full
There were things I wanted to recorded better, so I could put here
like this party
everybody was playing beer pong, it was really cool
too bad I couldn't record too much
Brazil
Unfortunately in the middle of this trip, we always had to say goodbye to some friends
we always tried to do somthing
special, but this time we did something I couldn't imagine it'll
happen on this trip
we rent a limo for $ 8 each
this to ride over the city and
to listen to some songs inside the car
that day was crazy!
and I have not shown us singing
naruto song inside the limousine
and even more, after all this we spent the dawn
inside the airport
and this to say goodbye to who was going back to their countries
maybe I don't have many friends
but the friendships I made there are the best!
we really spent a lot of time
together, and in one day we met to each one make a typical dish
from our country
there was a lot of hot stuff
an African dish
Korean
Japanese
of course I made the Brazilian dish
my first time doing that and I couldn't believe
it was good
until it already been a wonderful day, but something happened that made it
unforgettable
when I first arrived Canada, it was on my
birthday, but I still did not meet anyone
that day after all
sat down to eat, I discovered they had made a surprise party to me
as I said
I may not have many friends, but the friendships I've made there
are the best!
Canada, december 2017
on my last day, we tried to do something different
but it didn't work so good, it was raining a lot
we decided to go to Starbucks, where I had my last hot chocolate
it's amazing to look back and see everything I've done and learned
I never imagined
I would meet so many wonderful friends as I met
but there's always an hour we have to say goodbye (ok, bye)
one time everybody is around you, and when you see is not around anymore
and when we realize our life changes the page
I stayed 45 days in Vancouver, Canada
and this video was my exchange journal
