Alessandra grew up in one of Brazilian's most dangerous favelas. As she grew, she found her true passion in something that her family and neighboors barely knew: writing. When she wrote, she felt like all of her problems disappeared and she was a truly happy person. Now that she is older and independent, she is finally ready to persue her dream and no one can convince her otherwise: even with all the obstacles in her life, she will be an worldwide know author. #catcontest2 #brazil
