Gabriela (Gabi) Miris Boldrin de Macedo

Arrived from Americana Sao Paulo State, Brazil at 9:45am 7th February 2010 and is with the Richmond Rotary Club

Welcome Gabi.

Hello, I am Gabriela Macedo, but you can call me Gabi. I am seventeen years old and I am from Brazil – Americana.

I hope to spend an amazing year (2011 – 2012) here in New Zealand, that for sure will be a hild step in my life, it would be good for me to know more about myself , and became more grown up.

So I wish all the best of this opportunity that I am luck for having it. To get to know about Kiwi’s culture, traditions and way of life wich for sure I will love to learn and be part of. And as well being a Brazil Ambassador and pass a little of my culture too. I want to successes at school and meet a lot of people and make a lot of friends, so I will have good memories, that I will never forget.

Because with everyone is like the same and live at the same way, the world would just be boring.
