Brasileiros (Brazilians)

I mentioned in my previous post that I had met a lot of Brazilians, and added that they have names that are difficult to remember. There's a lot more to Brazilians than their complicated names, however. All the people I've met have been extremely amiable and hospitable. Meeting all of my 'amigos novos' (new friends) has been my favorite part of the trip by far. Here's a snapshot of a few of the Brazilians I've had the pleasure of meeting. Duda, the guy I'm living with for my first week here, is the one closest to the camera.



That picture was taken in a beautiful apartment, which is located on the top floor of a building in the middle of Sao Paulo. We went there yesterday for a 'churrasco' (barbeque). The apartment and the view of the city were both stunning. Below are a couple of pictures taken in the same room.
