It's been almost a year since Caio Pelosi came to Portage.  The 18 year old came to Canada from Brazil as part of the Rotary exchange program.  He says when he came to Portage last August he found the weather quite cold and he had to wear a sweater--the winter meant an extra jacket and 3 pairs of pants, he believes he has since adjusted to our climate and feels he's now like any other Canadian.
Pelosi calls his time in Portage an amazing experience, he highlights a trip to Alberta as one of his favorite memories of our country.  Pelosi returns to Brazil this August.
