Hello guys!

Good good news! I got Packet 4 today, and guess what??? My interview is next Wednesday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! November 21st!

I'm real excited and real nervous at the same time! It's gonna be a long journey, Rio de Janeiro is kinda far from here!

I have to leave on Monday night, get there late in the morning, go to a hotel and wait till the next day for the interview! Too bad the bus doesn't get there earlier :blink:

But the good thing is that now I have one less thing to worry about: getting a date! Big relief! Today I'm double double double checking all my docs and tomorrow morning I'm getting my ticket to Rio!!! Anyone happen to have the same date?

Kisses to everyone!!!!!

:lol:

:lol: :lol:

Hi, I was reading your interview, and I didn´t understand what was that you needed to pay there in the embassy...??

And...it took more than a week for you to receive your visa and passaport in your home?

And..Congratulations!

I hope to be in the same situation soon! Still waiting my appointment for the interview.

Boa viagem!
