My name is Helena but you can call me Hel.

HEL CARVALHO

HEL CARVALHO


Four years later she won a Miami Ad School scholarship and in two days she arrived at the airport with three bags, a hopeful heart and a head full of dreams, moving to an Airbnb that became her home for two months.

Those two months became (now) seven years.

And the three bags became an entire home with five lovely cats. Yeah, she’s a crazy cat lady and she (and her cats) can entertain people in Google Meet or Zoom calls. Besides cats, she also loves long walks, the Starbucks Mango Dragonfruit Refresher and writing in third person.

Someone told me she is looking for new adventures & more stories to tell (and write, of course).

I’m an art director, designer, brand strategist & whatever touches my heart. Also a storyteller.

This story is about a small town girl who fell in love with Rio at first sight and decided that one day she would live there.
