Describing Brazil in a few words is a magnanimous challenge, as it is a deliciously complex and extensive country. Brazil is certainly carnival, soccer, samba, beaches, beautiful people, exotic fruit and sumptuous dishes. Additionally, it is ecosystems, mountains, rivers, canyons, rain forests, jungles, swamplands and waterfalls. Above all, Brazil is arguably the world’s greatest melting pot of cultures.
Brazil is many countries, landscapes, cultures, ideologies, histories
and stories. One finds strong traces of European, African, Asian, modern
North American and indigenous Indian heritage. What differentiates Brazil
is that these varied influences have fused to create the contemporary
Brazilian culture. If you would like further information please click
