Of course, none of this would be possible if there wasn’t some amazing people involved. When the first website (shiplife.com.br) started to grow out of Brazil, the feeling was amazing. But then we’ve started to receive more and more emails from different countries requesting assistance, agencies from Europe looking for publishing space, and till then, the whole website was available in Portuguese only. There were people translating the content in order to understand it? Well, that had to change. Nowadays we have a team of supporters and translators that even without pay, help us grow, like a family.
