My name and Ingrid Cerqueira da Rocha. I was born in Osasco. I now live in carapicuiba, Sao Paulo. I graduated in tourism and i started dreaming about an exchange. I really wanted to go to United States but it didn’t work out.
I eventually made a student exchange in Ireland and I was able to visit more than 6 countries. It was a very good two years, a lot of learning and a lot of experiences.
I was a babysitter, house painter, cleaning lady, worked at events and even a Baptist. I graduated from a personal development course was very good.
