Patricia and Renato share cross-cultural experiences from Nanaimo in an online blog
Patrícia Melo and Renato Coelho left Brazil for Nanaimo a few months ago to attend Vancouver Island University. The couple, who are former journalists, are sharing stories about what they’ve been experiencing in their new culture on Vancouver Island. Their blogs, Just married, just enrolled! (in English) and Canada: There we go! (in Portuguese), track the experience of daily life in Nanaimo—which is predictably rather different than what Patrícia and Renato left behind in Sao Paulo, a city of more than 10 million people.
We’re joined in the studio by Patrícia Melo and Renato Coelho.
