In the third episode of the season of "Maternidade Fora do Brasil", we have the inspiring story of Maria, a Brazilian mother who crossed oceans in search of a new life. After a challenging first pregnancy that saw her return to Brazil, Maria found her home in Australia, where she and her husband, who travels frequently for work, welcomed their second child. Alone most of the time, taking care of her children and home, Maria faced loneliness and the language barrier, but found strength in her Brazilian roots and in the community of other mothers.

Maria shares how she turned her experience of isolation into an opportunity to create a vibrant support network for Brazilian families in Australia. From organizing play groups to unite the community of Brazilian families, teaching Portuguese to children, hosting parties, to educating about the rich Brazilian music that goes beyond samba, Maria exemplifies the creativity and perseverance that many expatriate mothers employ on a daily basis.

This story is not just about the challenges of motherhood and parenting abroad; it is a celebration of resilience, creativity and the importance of community. Maria shows us that even in the most difficult times, we can find ways to connect, grow, and transform our situations with joy and determination. Join us in this exciting episode and let yourself be inspired by Maria's journey, a true definition of Brazilian strength and inventiveness.
