Brazil is my favourite country in the world , I have returned there seven times .
Why : The Brazilians are extremely friendly , and I have been on long bus rides and complete strangers have insited in paying my drinks.
Their music is great:
Brazil has a very rich music tradition. The Brazilian music originates from mixing the styles of European colonists with the styles of African slaves and -to a lesser degree- the styles of the Amerindians.
Samba is the Brazilian style of music that everybody knows. It is famous throughout the world. Bossa Nova is well-known among jazz enthusiasts. Nevertheless, the Brazilian music does not get the international attention to which it is entitled. Who learns more about Brazilian music, discovers a new world of sounds, styles and rhythms varying from classical music to hiphop-like styles.
Famous Brazilian styles of music are:
Axé
Bossa Nova
Capoeira music
Choro
Música Popular Brasileira or MPB
Pagode
Samba
Tropicália
Food in Brazil is excellent and Cheap.
The potions are large .
The food is different in the various regions of Brazil>
It a fusion of my many styles.
The Brazilians blended ingredients and recipes from various continents long before Europeans and North-Americans spoke about fusion kitchen
It's a mixture of European, and African and Japanese.
In cities the kilos restaurant where the restaurants serve a buffet style food and you pay by the weight .This has replaced the American fast food places.
In the North you have the Amazon , which is the world's greatest rainforest.
Brazil has so many great beaches , they are too many to list.
Also you have many cities that are protected by UNESCO, because of the beautiful historical buildings :
Salvador, Paraty, Olinda, Sao Luis and the gold cities in Minas Gerais
Also Brazil has the greatest football team (soccer team) in the world.
Brazil has some of greatest Artists in the World and
cities like Rio are unique..

hmm ok. i lived in brasil for about 6 years (im a native of madeira, a portuguese island). its like people think, in the aspect that it is a very beautiful country.. it has a lot of diversity, you will see many types of people.
the accents of portugues vary in the country.. and spanish and english are spoken. however, brasil has a lot of poverty. if you are not a tourist, you will find that out.
where i lived, in rio, the city was about 2 seconds away from the beach. which sort of supports why there was pleasure mixed with business very often.
