Our cultural celebrations are mainly the same in the whole country Culture varies by state (Different celebrations in the north where the Amazon forest is -there are saints celebrations and others because there are Indians in the area) On New Year’s Eve people go in the streets and it’s very common to go to the beach and see fireworks more differences
Interesting bits from our ePals´letters • I was born …in Salvador-Bahia, but now I am living in Belo Horizonte-Minas Gerais. • Sometimes I read a book. The last one was The Huner of Kites. I loved it! • When I was a kid, I had a dream. It was… a dog, but as I travel a lot, my dad never gave me one. • My favorite TV show is Greek.
Interesting bits from our ePals´letters • Belo Horizonte… is a great city to live. • There are some kinds of songs that are unique to my area,like "forró" and "folia de reis”. • We celebrate Christmas… At midnight we usually exchange presents and play a game. Before the party we take a piece of paper with a name, and than we buy a present to this person. Then you say some caracteristics about this person to your family so they can find out who is. It's very nice, but i don't like very much Christmas, I don't know why.
Interesting bits from our ePals’ letters • …The only part I enjoy, is the presents exchange! • Carnival… it's the best party of all ! • Actually, I´m not involved in any specific project, but last year there was a Social Action for child of slums. • My favorite teacher is Cristiane because she is nice
