The feeling of excitement that rushes through my body when I see I'm gonna receive a letter is so bizarre.

In "Slowly" I found a good friend! Always support me, understand me, care about me, and accompany me in any situation.

I always had them when I felt down and when I felt happy, and I too was with them, all of us following each others' journey.

A. didn’t run away, and their eyes finally met for the first time. It was different from what they had expected, and it was better...

Isn’t it amusing how close of a relationship you can develop just over words?

As a journalist, I love getting to know more about people and how they experience life. Slowly, however, allowed me to go beyond what I expected.

Deep down, I think everyone longs to find out what's beyond the confines of their own culture—the huge world at large.

The act of correspondence where you share a bit about yourself can make you feel a smidge vulnerable at first, but if you give it some time, it will pay off.

It all started with "Saudações cara compatriota!" ("Greetings my fellow compatriot!") and in total, we ended up exchanging 103 letters.

I'm no longer afraid of being rejected by people because I know there will always be someone who will accept me for who I am, no matter how bad my flaws and imperfections might be.

By simply letting our personalities flow through our letters, we were able to convey to others who we are despite the distance.

I’m truly happy that we got to know each other through that app, and that both of us can find support in each other.
