Fernanda Tornell is passionate about animal rights, traveling, and graphic design. Her goals for the year are to live in the present, to discover a better sense of ambition and engagement in the world, to form a strong bond with her host family and fellows, and to be fluent in Portuguese. Her favorite quote is "Feet, what do I need you for when I have wings to fly?" by Frida Kahlo, her favorite Artist, because it reminds her that in this life there is no limits and that by using our imagination, everything is possible.
