Still so HOT and still so many mosquitos!!! But apart from that we are doing well 😊 Went to a Brazilian party which was awesome as everyone here wants to show you and tell you things about their country, for example 'ciri' which is crab - but literally a crab with its eyes and legs and everything still attached - which they plonked on our plates and said try it try it!! Needless to say we completely messed it up and got it everywhere - there seems to be alot of work required for very little food!! We also had a special 'Brazilian type of icecream which is actually a really healthy fruit mixed with ice so it's like a detox but tastes awesome!!!
Anyway enough about food - we are looking into going exploring quite soon as there seems to be an issue with work. Getting a job is easy as everyone wants to learn english but actually getting a work visa is hard - you need to have lived in Brazil for 1 year to obtain an 'identity card' but you can only stay in Brazil for 6 months on a tourist visa....stupid Brazil!?!? But people seem to want private lessons so thats always good 😊
However in the meantime we are beginning to think about travelling around - Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo and places in the south like the Iguacu Falls (as I think we will die if we head north which is even warmer!) so that is exciting.....scary but also exciting 😊
