We continues reading from Women who walk focusing on the story of Maria Salomão Schmidt. The questions that we analyzed were "where is home?; Does traveling teach us resilience?; Who are butterfly mothers; " We also reflected on the idea of retreats and students were proposing different retreats that they themselves would like to participate in. Furthermore, the students compared the short stories that they had already read and continued the ongoing discussion on diaspora, hyphenated identity, home, belonging and living between languages.
