Greetings from Brazil

Get a Voki now!

The Christmas Day is comming!! =)

Hello everybody!!

I'm writing here just to know what kind of presents do you like to receive, and which do you really receive at Christmas. =D

Probably the presents that you receive there, in Brazil, are very different than ours, in Portugal, because here is Winter and there is Summer (you're so lucky ^_^).

Merry Christmas!!

Are the Portuguese traditional ??? by Isabel and 11º F

yes, some of us are!!! But there are others who are very open-minded and bold. We've got João Garcia who's climbed to the Everest and other bold travellers... But Ana maybe you have a point... Some Portuguese are very concerned about what others think of them and in some way a bit narrow-minded... I've heard about the jokes but I don't take them personally, I just smile and think that maybe there are Portuguese who are a bit like that. By theway why don't you tell us a joke or maybe have your students write a joke about the Portuguese ?

These are the answers given by our Brazilian students:

Danilo: simplicity, exploration, history, small cities, stone streets, Lisbon, Cabo Verde.
Maria Clara: It´s a good place, history of Brazil, intelligent people.
Bruno: Felipão (football coach), Lisbon, wine, moustache, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Mariana: cod fish, Lisbon, food, good people, saints, beach, moustache, music, church.
