I messed up my first correction so I will do another:

Lost in Venezia

My brother Manuel was taking what we call a year off from his major. It was not a gap year, like Americans would say, but an Erasmus scholarship program, which in terms of leisure is pretty much the same... only one period.

Maybe I should have you, Carmen, correct MY writing instead of me correcting yours!

Sorry about the previous mistakes.

prepositions striking again... they seem to be completely out of my control... :( So, can we be sure that 'in that/those moment/s' does not make any sense... it always have to be 'at that/those moment/moments'?

Hi; There is this phrase of 'in this moment' in your text Carmen, repeated another time in that essay on, I think, knowledge from books (In those moments). I checked some dictionaries but the only preposition that corresponded with you specific definition was 'at'; 'at this moment'. I'm really confused about this 'play' of prepositions! I think even the English can't agree on some of these prepositions (because it seems 'in this moment' is the name of a music band).
