50 Things I learnt about Brasil and Brasilians.

So, It's already been three months. Seems like yesterday I was that scared little, curly-haired kid. It's been fun till now. Hope for better times ahead. This is my 'Observations and Conclusions' of Brasil in the 3 months I have been here.

This is just a random list. Not based on specific subjects and stuff.

1. To begin with, Brasilians are the most friendly people I have ever seen. People you have never seen before treat you like best friends.

2. Brasilians LOVE to eat and feed others.

3. Brasilians love sports. All kinds of sports and ,of course, football especially.

4. Special mention to my mother here who knew Zlatan Ibrahimovic was Swedish. She is almost 50. *Bows*

5. Brasilians are very patriotic.

6. They also like thteir meat a lot. All meals include some or the other type of meat.

7. Brasilian teenagers have no respect for girls. ( The ones that I have been with)

8. Brasilian girls need to have some more respect for themselves.

9. It's generally very hot here but it can rain anytime and then it's very cold.

10. The Barbeques are addictive.

11. If you want to hang out, the first place they suggest is the mall.

12. Brasil is very beautiful. May it be the cities or the outskirts.

13. They have almost NO English here. Just Portuguese.

14. Son of a Bitch is a really strong abuse here. (In portuguese, of course, which is Filho da Puta.)

15. Brasilians LOVE to party.

16. I was pretty disappointed by the music here. Not very good.

17. Students treat teachers as friends.

18. Girls will not hesitate to make the first move.

19. Brasilian women are overhyped. They are not THAT beautiful. With the clothes they wear any woman will look good. I prefer Indian girls to Brasilian.

20. Brasil is wonderful to walk around alone with a Mp3 player.

21. Brasil is not extremely unsafe. It's Ok.

22. Brasilian footballers are exactly what you have heard of them. They are crazy. ABSOLUTELY CRAZY.

23. Indian and Brasilian humour is almost the same.

24. Brasilians are very talkative as well.

25. There's a lot more to Brasil than Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

26. P.S. Rio de Janeiro means River of January.

27. They had a TV show which was about India.

28. They have a lot of unique foodstuffs like Pastel, Brigadeiro.etc. and a drink called Guarana.

29. The rivalry between two local football teams is dangerously high.

30. They play 'Futsal' more than actual 11 v 11 football.

31. The day in Brasil starts very early... At 7 most people are out of their homes.

32. Exams are very easy. Just a little worksheet. I don't know why they make such a big deal about it.

33. If you get a Brasilian angry, you have done something really bad.

34. Brasilians love to drink.

35. The bus system is very organized.

36. They have sex shops on the road.

37. Should have told this one a lot earlier! The general form of greeting women is a kiss on the cheek.

38. The general form of greeting a boy is a clap and a punch on the knuckles.

39. They have left-hand drive.

40.Brasilians are generally very happy people. They like to enjoy life rather than sulk about stuff.

41. Brasilians are also pretty sentimental. That's good, to be honest. You can talk to a friend about serious, deep stuff withoug being made fun of.

42. Brasilians are the most polite people ever

43. Brasilians will love you no matter how you are.

44. Brasil will treat you as it's own. This country has a vibe or rather an aura which makes you feel like her son.

47. Brasilians love their God.

48. Brasil is all about Peace and Love.

50. Te Amo, Brasil. :)

So, That's it. 3 months. in 50 points. Seems easy. Believe me, it is not. Reading this is fun. Experiencing it... Orgasmic. Amen.
