Shoppping

Went to Salvador Shopping today and it was amazing. All the stores have such nice clothes...they are such good quality and would be considered designer in the U.S. but way cheaper. I was good...I didn´t spend lots of money!! Yay that takes willpower. We took the bus on the way there and it started to rain and it was perfect...the city is so big and some parts are so beautiful. The most gorgeous guy worked at this one store we went into and here if someone is helping you they follow you around the whole time you shop...I was seriously blown away by him, I didn´t want to leave. I guess the stereotype that Brasilian are really beautiful is true.

I want to stay here and lay on the beach and look at the ocean forever. I´m so glad I only have one semester left in Tucson...I need to be in a big city like this and I can´t wait to move to Manhattan (even though there´s no tropical beach there).

Sooo when I got back from surfing my homestay parents were leaving the guy´s parents were there. They´re from Brasilia (in the interior of Brasil) and they were sooo nice to me. They talked to me and wanted to know all about me. They brought all sorts of food like vegtables and beans from some farm and then showed me that they brought a skinned goat that was cut up and just chillin in the fridge. That was a shock...it was completely disgusting and I tried my best to keep a straight face and seem interested. Things are getting better with the homestay and I am trying to talk more and get over the langauge barrier. I probably sound like a five year old child just sputtering words but I don´t care (people literally laugh at me sometimes...it´s wonderful).

Tchau Tchau...Até logo
