En: In the midst of the white dunes of the Lençóis Maranhenses, under the gentle autumn sun, the group of students walked with enthusiasm.

Pb: No entanto, perdido na imensidão das dunas, logo percebeu que estava sozinho, sem o caminho de volta.

Pb: A sensação de pertencimento que tanto procurava estava, na verdade, em aceitar seus próprios limites e confiar nos amigos que nunca deixaram de procurá-lo.
En: The sense of belonging he so longed for was actually in accepting his own limits and trusting the friends who never stopped searching for him.
