Discover our interview with Savio FERREIRA DE MELO, one of our clients based in Brazil, pictured below with his wife.
Please introduce yourself.
My name is Savio Ferreira de Melo, I am 65, Brazilian and have lived here in Brazil my whole life. I have been married since 1982 and we have 2 sons and 1 daughter, and now one grandson. I live and work in the city of São Paulo.
I'm an engineer and have worked my entire life in this area, most of the time as an entrepreneur in a private engineering firm. Now I'm in a phasing out process, looking for less intensive professional activities and for more free time to travel and stay abroad.
I speak Portuguese (c2, native), English (c1/b2), French (b1), Spanish (b1) and now am learning Luxemburgish (a1).

2. When did you start to learn Luxembourgish? What motivated you to do so? How do you find this experience?
I started studying Luxembourgish about six months ago. There is a considerable number of Brazilians (more than 2000) that are decedents from Luxembourg and this is the case of my wife and sons. In this context, we visited Luxembourg once a year, in the last years. I'm motivated to learn Luxembourgish to better understand the culture and eventually to acquire the nationality. Learning this different language became a very nice cultural experience in my free time.
