or dear reader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My name is Elisa, I\u2019m 28 years old and I was born and raised in south Brazil. A city called Porto Alegre (in a poor translation Happy Port [kkkkk!!]) was my home until the beggining of this august. I recently (like, literally two weeks ago) moved to Philly to pursue a PhD degree in the History Department of Temple University. Besides being an enthusiast of prison\u2019s history, the criminal justice system and all of the in-betweens, I am a sports fan (Gremio and Coxa are my soccer – or should I say football!! – teams back in Brazil but I\u2019m into nba and nfl and ice skating and even curling?), an avid consumer of romcoms, a food and drink person and, of course, a swiftie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


As my professor of Oral History assigned the class to do it and my friends and family in Brazil would probably benefit as well – since I\u2019m not the best in updating everyone -, I\u2019ll try to make this a somehow both personal and academic blog. Please, if you don\u2019t want to read my nonsense and\/or my thoughts on starting this 6-year journey, feel free to jump right to the section of notes “on oral history”. On the other hand, if you\u2019re family and brazilian friends and only want to know my news, you should also skip to the notes “as a portoalegrense philly girl\u201d. If you want to be friends, have some coffee while reading whatever I chose to write or just laugh (with me or at me), welcome to this safe space. I can\u2019t promise regularity, useful or joyful readings but I will definitely do my best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Thank you and welcome!<\/p>\n\n\n
