Gort in the west of Ireland is known by the nickname 鈥楲ittle Brazil鈥� because it鈥檚 home to so many Brazilians.

They first came to Ireland in the late 1990s to work in the town鈥檚 meat factory.

Lucimeire Trindade was just 24-years-old when she and three friends arrived in the town, unable to speak a word of English or Irish.

Nearly 25 years later, Lucimeire considers Gort her true home.

She tells Vicky Farncombe how being in Ireland changed her outlook on life.

鈥淚 learned that a woman can have their own life, especially going to the pub alone without their husbands!鈥�
