Jober Ferreira Oliveira, a 16-year-old Brazilian student, had never dreamed of going to China before he was admitted to a special high school. Now, he's been to China twice, much to the envy of his friends.

Two years ago, Oliveira enrolled at Joaquim Gomes de Sousa Brazil-China Intercultural school, which is located in Niteroi City, Rio de Janeiro State.

Through the school he entered a football summer camp in China, where he played the game with locals, learned Chinese and visited museums.
