My time in South America is coming to an end. Just another five weeks before I head home to enjoy the arrival of my first niece or nephew. For my small family its a very exciting event!
I left Australia expecting many things; to learn Spanish, see many latin countries, get parasites, be robbed.... I certainly didnt expect to see just 4 countries, forget all my Spanish and get engaged to a Brasilian!
My gift from Brasil has been Marcio. From the first months with him I knew, more than I have known anything in my life, that he was the one for me.
I don't know if there are good reasons to love someone. Marcio inspires love in so many ways. I love him for being reasonable, for being resourceful, for being honest and open minded and for opening my eyes about many things in the world. I love his sense of fairness and how after just these 7 months he seems to know me better than I know myself. I love the sense of security I feel with him, that no matter how many mistakes I make he will be there by my side. I love his pragmatic view of the future, mixed with just a touch of romanticism. I love how he appreciates me in all my weaknesses. I love to cook with him, where one suggestion can cause an avalanche of recipe ideas to be tried. I love him as my muse and my partner for life.
He is one of a kind and I can´t wait for you all to meet him this year!
