After 3 long plane rides, I finally made it here. Everything is very different from Canada, and I'm so happy to be able to experience it all! Some things may take a little longer to get used too; like there aren't any cross walks for pedestrians so you basically have to avoid the cars to cross the street, also people are soooo friendly! Every time you meet someone new you give them a hug and a kiss on the cheek, but sometimes you don't. I haven't quite figured it all out yet :P The language is sort of an issue sometimes, but I'm starting to understand most of what people try to tell me if they speak slowly and clearly I can understand most of what they are saying.
Two days ago I started school. I met so many nice people! Some of them spoke a little bit of english which made it so much easier to communicate but I'm also able to practice my portuguese with them. Another difference is schools here start at 7... But they also end at 12 so it's good and bad all at the same time.
