We loved interviewing Andrea because she speaks so openly and candidly about how difficult moving to a new country and forging a new community can be. It takes time and effort and patience. She also makes us laugh a lot, and we're sure she'll do the same for you!

This week, we had the pleasure of interviewing Joao. He teaches us about the value of a parent’s sacrificial love, which he received from his mother and now embodies for his children. He is thoughtful and devoted, and we know you will enjoy his story as much as we do.
