Juliana Gomes could barely speak English, lived out of a backpack, rode around on a bike and washed dishes until she decided to turn that all around.<\/p>\n

When Juliana Gomes first arrived in Australia she lived off supermarket home brand products.<\/p>\n

\n

Leaving Brazil for the Gold Coast in 2008 as a 20-year-old with nothing but a backpack, life was initially a struggle.<\/p>\n

Now Ms Gomes has gone from riding a $50 bike to cruising around in Audi, selling $90 million in real estate and owning two properties of her own.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I arrived I had no English language ability whatever, I couldn\u2019t even order bread,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy biggest discovery was the home brand in the supermarkets because I literally had no money and I found out that was the cheapest brand you could get so it was lifesaving.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
