I think ancient languages and tūpuna have so much to tell and teach as humans, no matter what part of Earth we were born and live. I am brazilian and my country is Pindorama, land of Tupis, brave warriors, owners of the land. Unfortunately, white man and religion made their language vanished and my heritage and sense of belonging gone together. Studying Te Reo Māori is my way to connect my heart with my past somehow.

Kia ora! Studying Reo Māori have been so much important for me. The energy I feel when I am reading, speaking and writing is the signal that Reo Māori get me connected with my past to understand my life today and to prepare a better future.
