About living alone: There's a huge difference between being alone because you want to, and being alone by lack of choice.
At first time I lived alone in my hometown it feels marvelous. I can study, work or bring anyone I want to my home without nobody pissing me off about whatever I do. Nice.
But I tried the same living in São Paulo and I felt absolutely depressed. Reason? Simple: Lack of company when I want to.
At my hometown I could visit my brother and my friends whenever I wanted to. I can't say the same about São Paulo (800km far away).
Then I learned the lesson and share my home since then. At the moment I live with 3 people, which feels nice and balanced. My own privacity, my silence, my space, plus people to talk to when I want to.
