Well it´s been one week in Brazil so far and I am really loving it. My host family has really accepted me into their home and family and I start school tomorrow. And to anybody who happens to be doing a presentation on Brazil, the unique things that make brasilians brasilians is that the family is very tight knit and you see the other members of the family at least twice a week. Also they are very warm and welcoming to newcomers but are very protective of their girlfriends and boyfriends. They like to stay out late at night but have school from 7 to 12 in the morning. Also the food is mostly rice and beans as the staple then some kind of beef, I have only had chicken twice and fish never. They also love music with a passion. I have to go now so I will write later but I am very excited to be here.
