To try to write one page on my final thoughts from our trip to Brazil is impossible. All I can say is, it was an experience of a lifetime; Rio, the people we met there and the things we did will always have a special place in my heart. I will never forget any of it. It has changed my life in ways that I never would have thought and has opened my eyes to a life that i never knew existed. It was a rollercoaster of emotions, good and bad. The sights are permanently engrained in my memory along with the testimonies and conversations of my teammates. It was a time spent with not only my team, but my best friends, and to be able to experience this with them is the best thing i ever could have asked for. It brought us closer as a team but even closer as friends. Thank you to all of our interpreters, to sharon and ray for allowing us to have this opportunity. Thank you to Marsou who made sure that we had teams to play and places to have a great time. Thank you most of all to BW. With out her none of this would have been possible. Belmont and it's athletics are lucky to have her representing us.
Obrigada!! :)
