Hi Rômulo. Welcome to WP. Hope you like it here. What's Brazil like? I've been to Portugal (which I understand is nothing like Brazil) and enjoyed that.

Hmmm I live at one big and beautiful city, that have a strong culture. I like to make people get into about Recife (know as "brazilian venice" due to its bridges and river) because isn't like much what the mainstream worldwide knows about Brazil. Although I don't appreciate to being at the party, our carnival is unique and very beautiful. And as a musician I must to tell you about our music, which you could find african, jazz, erudite, portuguese and until mediterranean influences. I'm puting below two links of the our most popular music - maracatu and frevo.

About the people in general, they're are simpatic and cool but sometimes tough and close-minded about some subjects.
