Brazil Details
Come to the country that celebrates life! Living in Brazil is like experiencing a celebration everyday. From Carnaval, one of the world’s most famous celebrations, to the incredibly hospitable nature of the Brazilian people, to the ever-present futebol or soccer culture, Brazil never fails to excite all the senses. Brazil is the largest, most populous, and the only Portuguese-speaking country in Latin America. It is a land of diversity, present in the vast Amazon rainforest, beaches, and cities, as well as in the people who inhabit these places, like native Indians, and people of Portuguese, European, and African ancestry.
You will easily make friends, since Brazilians love to share their culture and learn about others. You can dance the forró, a Brazilian dance that came from the American expression “for all” to one of the many musical dialects that underlies the Brazilian happy-go-lucky nature and penchant for solidarity.
You will be invited to join in soccer matches, traditional dances, festivals, street parades, guitar gatherings, barbecues, parties at the beach, and much more. If you’re up for a challenge, try your hand at capoeira, the 400-year-old Afro-Brazilian art form that combines martial arts, music, dance, and ritual. Family life is important here, so don’t be surprised if many extended family members want to get to know you during your stay. Meals with your host family are important and usually include rice, beans, and meat in delicious combinations. In Brazil, not only will you make friends in your host country, but also with students from around the world who have, like you, chosen Brazil for the experience of a lifetime!
