"Everything Becomes Liquid": against flow from Brazil to Poland to Belguim, from being alone to new friendships and from full experience to a broken foot

Update: 2025-06-26

Description

In this episode, I am having a conversation with a philosopher, Francisco. He used to study engineering in Brazil, but then changed his field of interest completely and went to Poland. He liked all the challenges of moving to another country so much that he decided to go for an Erasmus Exchange to Belgium. What drove all his decisions? Is he happier now? How did he manage to make new friends and get the best of international experience even when he broke his foot? All this and more than studying in a new episode!

Please enjoy!
