Soccer Season in Brazil December 22, 2005 |
|
Soccer season in brazil is like nothing i have
ever experienced, the whole year is a giant soccer season, but i am in
the beggining of the climb to the peak. It is very easy to tell that it
is soccer season, because every couple of days the entire city is in the
streets partying. Last week i slept over at my grandma's house, she
lives in centro, and i was awoken by either gun shots or fireworks,
acompanied by either screaming in fright, or yelling with delight,
luckily it was the latter.
All the other exchange students are still in utter
disbeliefe that people have christmas without snow, but for me, its
pretty normal. The weather down here is alot like miami, but with much
less humidity.
On january 9th i will be leaving for a month long
trip to explore the north east of brazil, incuding many well known
cities, such as Rio de Janiero and Sao Paulo, and i will be returning on
the 10th of febuary, and tell you all about it.
And hopefully som time in later febuary, i will be
going back to rio for carnival, and to go stay at the beaches.
Thats mostly all for now,
Eric Newma
