Leaving home and family...
First of all, english is not my first language, and i'll try to write some posts in english to reach everyone. Any sugestions and corrections, just comment and thank you very much :).
Some years ago, in far far away small city... i was unemployed, with no money and no perspective about find some job. It's realy sad and funny at the same time, because when you was in a bad situation, you have to find a solution and just get out from this bottom.
So, a really big company contact me and some friends to offer us jobs with COBOL programming language, witch is much used in banks in Brazil. It's a jurassic language, structural and really easy to learn. But, they're gave me a simple condition: you have to move to Sao Paulo. Living in Sao Paulo was never in my plans and perspective of life. My entire family is from Curitiba (another city in Brazil) and it was where a thinked i have to move. Life is a great box of surprises, and i justed accepted the challenge. In 09/29/2014, Sao Paulo justed become my new home. With no family, just a lot of "friends", who i met some months before this events, we rent an apartment and started a new life.

A lot of thing changed since this, and it's really hard write all. But, 3 thing i can surely write here:
- I learned how to live with difference and people with different habits. Share apartment with 3 other guys it's really hard and a lesson to entire life.
- I have to learn to administrate my money with conscience. If i buy a new guitar, probally i can't pay the rent at the end of the month. So...
- I learned how family is important and how we miss them more than we think.
So, here i am, 3 years later, with a girlfriend and two (demons) dogs. I'm a System analyst of a heath care company with a lot of missions accomplished so far.
Thank you for reading...

I think one of the good things that come out of a "bottom" is to have or develop the strength to get out of it, like you wrote and like you did. Also, you think more about what is important and you value things and people differently - and I believe that is really more than many people do. Thanks for sharing!
Hey, how are you? Thank you for reading and comment. Best regards =D
I love this intention: "I have to learn to administrate my money with conscience." The world needs more people to make that effort.
Financial education should be mandatory in Brazilian schools. Only my bank account managers know how much can't pay credit card help me (in a bad way) to grow up and learn about this. Regards =D
Consigo imaginar os desafios de morar sozinho numa cidade nova (e grande como São Paulo). Parabéns, Soave. Isso não é pra qualquer um.
Imagino o quanto você deve ter crescido nesse período e o quanto ainda há para crescer! Obs. No final do post eu juro que li que você tinha dois demogorgons... rsrsrs
Muito obrigado! Ahahahaha, tem dias que eles se comparam a Demogorgons facilmente...hahaha
Nice story man and your English is more than fine! I hope you are happy with your choice to move to Sao Paulo. I see your post is from 5 days ago. Please don't give up :)
Thank you very much, @exyle. I won't, trust me. I'm very happy and this city is perfect. To get better, just if a can work with systems develops in Europe..hahaha. Best regards
