Description
Hello!! I am Henri... well, Henrique.
But I prefer Henri to avoid the "Oh, like Enrique Iglesias?", I've had enough! haha
I am from the capital of Brazil, Brasília. After finishing a Bachelor's in IT in my hometown, I won a short course scholarship and went to England for a few weeks. I knew right then and there that I wanted to live abroad and keep expanding my horizons and the cultures I am exposed to.
I moved to Australia to study English, then got a scholarship to study for a Bachelor's in 3D Design in Melbourne. Ended up staying there for almost 6 years!
I came back to Brazil to spend some time with my family, and now I got a visa to live in France, to learn this language that I have always wanted to learn and to immerse myself in a new culture.
I am a blend of introverted and "social butterfly", and I think I found the perfect balance between those.
I like meeting new people, making friends and I will always try to find humor in every situation.
My main goals here are to practice and improve my French, develop new skills with this work exchange and make friends along the way.
So, please, feel free to send a message to align our interests. I'd be happy to help you!Interests
