Living in Brazil (巴西）and Switzerland
Moving to a different city may seem difficult. You have to change schools and get used to
your new home. But you can always go back to that city to visit. When you move to another
country, things are different. However, difficult as it may be, the experience can be rewarding.
My dad, a Brazilian, is really funny and can make friends quickly. My mom, a Swiss, is
usually quiet and a bit shy. She likes to be organized， But my dad never makes plans. She
enjoys staying home, but my dad always wants to go out. Swiss and Brazilian一what a mix!
After my parents got married, they moved to Switzerland. There they had my brother and me.
When I was two, we moved to Brazil. During my childhood we visited Switzerland every year.
Many people ask me where I prefer to live: Brazil or Switzerland. It's really hard to answer
because I love both countries. Brazil is a big country with many states and people. There are
multiple dialects and many types of foods. People here have beautiful smiles and are always happy,
even if they are poor. In the south the climate is cool, but in the north It's hot and humid.
Switzerland, on the other hand, is small but beautiful and clean. There are four languages in
that tiny country. People there are very different from Brazilians: they are wealthy, independent,
and organized. The food is delicious, and of course, the famous Swiss chocolate is great, and the
climate is dry and cool.
I love both countries. In Switzerland, it's pleasant, calm, and peaceful everywhere. I enjoyed
my stay there very much. But now I am happy here in Brazil. I feel excited and at home.
