"Well, on Monday night I called the zone leaders to make sure that Elder Carvalho and I didn't have to go to transfers on Tuesday. Well, after only 2 1/2 months in Jd. Camargo Novo I was yanked out and sent to the transfer meeting. At the transfer meeting I found out my new area and companion. I am in Vila Mariana as a zone leader for the Ipiranga Zone. Thats a pretty big responsibility since this zone is massive with numerous districts and areas, but I feel pretty confident. This is my second time in the zone, I was first in Belem a little over two months ago and now I am here, downtown, about to rock and roll. This area was the first ward in Sao Paulo, called the Vila Mariana Ward. My trainer was a zone leader down here and now "like father, like son" or something to that effect. We live in an apartment building on the 16th floor with a great view of the south side of Sao Paulo, "the rich side". We have the metro stations of Liberdade, Sao Joaquim, Vergueiro, Vila Mariana, Ana Rosa, Paraiso, Chacara Klabin and Estudantes in our area for our transporte needs."
