Beach Soccer

Beach Soccer

 One of my favorite RioLIVE! Activities was playing soccer on the beach in Copacabana with the students and professors from the school. There is simply no better place in the world to play soccer while enjoying perfect weather with a landscape as beautiful as Rio. I definitely felt more welcome to Rio and to the school after having met everyone while playing soccer on the beach. I would definitely suggest taking part in these events if you attend Rio & Learn.

Missing less than one month for the World Cup that will be organized in Brazil, RioLIVE! took the sutends to play some beach soccer. Soccer/Football is the passion of many Brazilians. It was an amazing activity, beacause we had one of the most beautiful landscapes in the world, Copacabana’s beach. Besides that, the weather was perfect to practice sports and play soccer. We divided in two teams: one team formed by students from Europe and Africa and the other team formed by students North and South America. We had challenging and funny matches. In the end, the North and South American team was the winner. But, the best part was the students’ interaction. They could talk in Portuguese naturally without realizing it. Come to have fun and learn Portuguese with us at RioLIVE!

Faltando menos de um mês para a Copa do Mundo que será realizada no Brasil, a RioLIVE! de ontem foi futebol de areia. O futebol é paixão nacional dos brasileiros. Foi uma atividade incrível, até porque não podia ser diferente, pois tínhamos uma das paisagens mais belas do mundo, a praia de Copacabana. Além disso, o clima estava perfeito para a prática do esporte. Nos dividimos em dois times: um formados por alunos da Europa e da África e outro por alunos das Américas do Sul e do Norte. Foram jogos bem disputados e divertidos. No final, o time formado por alunos do continente americano foram os vencedores. Mas, o melhor de tudo foi a interação entre os alunos. Sem perceber, os próprios já estavam se comunicando em português. Venha você também se divertir e aprender português nas atividades RioLIVE!
