Getting to Know Brazil Part 1.1

    After a week of suspense, drama, love and a lot of hard-work the world's most spectered day just arrived welcome Friday. This is a day where some will have a nice beer after work or Just relax at home after a hard day at school anyway TDIF or Thanks God It is Friday.   
    Undeniably this Friday is a special one for me and  of course for all my friends from MEC and Skype because  I will have the opportunity to clarify a lot of questions doubts that a lot of people has about Brazil (by the way In Portuguese we always write Brasil with 'S') and you my dear friend will have a  sweet experience of traveling to Brazil without leave your home, to sum up I hope you have fun.
    Lets get the ball rolling. I divided this post into small parts, these are: Geography, Brazilians, Leisures, Food and Music. As I know that one image says more that one thousand words I picked a lot of images, videos and links in order to make this trip more interesting. Are you ready ?? Brazil here we come!

   Geography

   I could not start talking about any country without bring up a bit of geography into the context however take it easy I am not a geography's subject expert despite the fact that I do know the definition of island of course.
     Island it is what Brazil looks like when you take a look on it in the map. Do you know why ? No problem dear passengers just enjoy the flight.

    Brazil is located in the South America continent and it has 210 millions of habitants in total, well I know no big deal so far. The interesting thing is that Brazil is the single and unique country in the continent where the mother language is Portuguese and this fact in fact is the reason why a lot of people think that Brazilians speak Spanish however no, no and no, we do not speak Spanish however we love all our nice neighbor btw 'Hola muchachos que tal ?'.
  

   Brazilians

    In general it is very easy talk about Brazilians we are a mixture of all peoples in the world we are Africans, Japaneses, Germans (I wont talk about the last word cup), Italians, Turks, Indians well I think I got my point. 

       We just love to receive foreigns in our country maybe because maybe because we all know where we come from or better we do not know. Did you know that Brasil is the country with the largest number of Japanese outside japan ?  Now you know right lol. They came and Brought a lot of their culture and tradition.

    The South of Brazil were colonized by Germans they there are a lot of German families in Brazil and they brought and spread their culture here making Brazil much more interesting place to leave (October fest is the best for me lol).

     I would have to write a whole book to describe all sort of peoples who leaves here who are Brazilian and make this country so special from my point of view. In a nutshell, Brasil is a country of everybody and I dare You know some of these Brazilian's stars can you see how different they are? This is awesome isn't it ?
