A trip changed my life


By Bruno Lotti :


My name is Bruno Lotti, a writer who lived in the beating heart of Vila Madalena, in São Paulo. This neighborhood, known for its artistic and bohemian streak, was always full of life and creativity. However, despite being surrounded by an unparalleled cultural effervescence, I felt trapped in a monotonous routine, as if I were trapped in a black and white movie, where the days merged into an endless sequence of repetitions. It was then that, taken by a burning desire for change and filled with a restlessness that consumed me, I decided to turn the page in my own story.  


On that decisive day, I knew I needed a change, but I didn't have a concrete plan. So, I went to the bus station, kind of guided by an impulse. There, standing in front of the bus companies' electronic panels, each destination flashing on the screen seemed to whisper possibilities. Have you ever found yourself faced with a choice that could change everything? It was a bit of an epiphany moment, you know? Ouro Preto appeared on the screen, and something inside me clicked. I bought the ticket almost without thinking, driven by a strong intuition that this was the way.


The trip from São Paulo to Ouro Preto was a journey of reflection. Watching the landscape change through the window, I felt a mixture of anxiety and excitement. And you, have you ever allowed yourself to embark on a journey without knowing exactly where it will lead? When I finally arrived, the feeling was indescribable. The stone streets, the historic buildings, everything in Ouro Preto had an aura of another time. Walking those hills was like traveling to the past, every corner revealed a new surprise, a new story. The Church of São Francisco de Assis, with its imposing facade and intricate details, was one of the first places I visited. I stood there, admiring, thinking about how many generations passed through that same place. Have you ever wondered how many stories are hidden in the places you visit?


After immersing myself in the historical richness of Ouro Preto, I felt it was time to explore new horizons. Chapada dos Veadeiros was already on my list, and something told me it was the perfect contrast after the historic city. The transition from an urban, historic environment to the vastness of nature was invigorating. Upon arriving in Chapada, I was greeted by a breathtaking scenery: vast plains, imposing rock formations and spectacular waterfalls. Each trail I walked took me to a state of contemplation and deep connection with nature. And you, have you allowed yourself to feel this connection, this return to the origins that nature offers us?


After the deep immersion in nature offered by Chapada dos Veadeiros, I felt it was time to explore new landscapes and cultures. So, I continued my journey to Paraty, on the coast of Rio de Janeiro. Arriving in the city was like entering a living painting, where the sea meets the colonial in perfect harmony. The stone streets, surrounded by old mansions, told stories from centuries past, while the sound of the waves brought a calm that only being close to the ocean can offer. Sailing through the green waters of Paraty, surrounded by islands that hide almost untouched beaches, was an experience that renewed my spirit, mixing the tranquility of the sea with the historical richness of the city. Have you ever been so carried away by the beauty of a place that you feel your spirit renewed?


The next stage of my journey took me to the Fernando de Noronha archipelago, a true paradise on Earth. The beauty of the place is almost indescribable, with its crystal clear waters, abundant marine life and white sand beaches surrounded by majestic rock formations. Diving in the waters of Noronha was one of the most incredible experiences of my life, a direct encounter with nature in its purest and wildest form. Observing turtles, rays and a multitude of colorful fish up close was like being invited to a private show, where each creature played its role in perfect harmony. Have you ever had a moment of such intense connection with nature that you felt part of a greater whole?


Finally, I felt it was necessary to complete my journey of reconnection with nature by visiting the magnificent Amazon Rainforest. The green expanse that stretched out before my eyes was breathtaking. Navigating the rivers that cut through the forest, listening to the sounds of wildlife and interacting with local communities was a transformative experience. I learned about the importance of ecological balance and respect for nature, lessons that I will carry with me forever. And you, have you reflected on the impact of your actions on the balance of our planet?


Each destination I visited, each person I met and each new experience I had during this journey shaped me in an indelible way. It wasn't just a trip through Brazil, but a dive into the depths of my soul, in search of answers, inspiration and, above all, a reunion with myself. And now, I invite you to ask yourself: what am I seeking in my own journey?


Upon returning to São Paulo, I realized that the city hadn't changed, but I had. My perception of life, people and the world around me had transformed. My apartment, once a simple place to rest, was now a sanctuary of memories, each object a reminder of a unique moment experienced during my journey. This makes me wonder: how do the experiences we live shape the way we see the world?


This trip not only marked a chapter in my life, but it was the beginning of a new way of living and seeing the world. The true journey, I learned, is not the one that takes us to distant places, but rather the one that allows us to explore the deepest recesses of our being, reconnecting us with our essence and showing us that, no matter how much we travel around the world, the destination The most important thing is always returning to ourselves. And you, are you ready to embark on this inner journey?

I hope that by sharing my story, I can inspire you to embark on your own journey of self-discovery, whether it be across the world or within the vast universe that resides within each of us. Because, after all, every step we take is a part of the great journey that is life.


So, as I share these moments from my journey, I want you to reflect: what is your Ouro Preto? What is your Chapada dos Veadeiros? We all have these places, whether physical or metaphorical, that call us to a greater adventure, to a deeper encounter with who we really are. Maybe it's time for you to hear that call.


Remember, it's not about running away from the life you have, but about diving deeper into it, discovering layers and inner landscapes that you didn't even know existed. Just as the cities and landscapes I visited transformed me, your own experiences, your own challenges and discoveries are waiting to shape you in ways you cannot yet imagine.

And when you come back from this journey, whatever it may be, you will realize, just as I did, that everything around you may look the same, but you will be different. And this internal change is the true treasure of any journey.


So what are you waiting for? Life is an incredible adventure, full of mysteries to unravel, places to explore and, above all, a continuous journey of discovering yourself. I hope my story inspires you to take the first step on your own journey. Who knows where it might take you?
