I very rarely find any queer stories with latinx characters, and when I do, they tend to be tragic and sad--which was why I decided to make Rancho Jacarandá. I wanted a story with queer latinas that felt soft and hopeful.
Thanks for reading!

What a beautiful and soft and hearty-warming story! There were beats of humour made me laugh out loud, and all the characters feel genuine and true. Most important of all though, the ending left me smiling. Wonderful work <3
Emília and Sofia grew up together, spending every summer at Rancho Jacarandá: a tiny house by a big lake. But the summer they turned 15, Emília did something neither of them expected and permanently drove Sofia away--or so she thinks. Five years later, Sofia is coming back to visit and all the feelings and events surrounding that last fateful summer are bubbling up to the surface.
A short comic set in the southeast of Brazil, about two girls, falling in love and the wonders and tribulations of growing up.
