Una gran opción para terminar la semana! La feria de São Cristóvão es un lugar donde comprar, comer y divertirse; ofrece artesanías, comida típica del nordesde de Brasil, bebida, folclore y música en directo. La noche comenzó en los carrinhos de choque o bate-bate donde descargamos todo nuestro ‘amor’ unos contra otros. La feria cuenta con cuatro escenarios con números en vivo, así que después de cenar pusimos nuestros cuerpos a bailar mientras los regábamos con abundante cerveza y caipirinha. La noche terminó en un karaoke regentado por un japonés-brasileiro amante de las canciones románticas, por lo que no pudimos ser menos y llenamos el viejo tocadiscos de canciones de amor, míticos temas y un largo repertorio variado que hizo temblar los alrededores y casi casi hacer explotar la máquina. ¡Una gran experiencia con grandes compañeros!
Last Friday on our
RioLIVE! we joined Karaoke and fun at
São Cristóvão. It was a super fun night in which our students took the time to practice a lot of Portuguese and see a bit of the northeastern culture of Brazil. The
São Cristóvão fair is has culinary, crafts and northeastern music present in every tent and restaurants. The students asked many questions about the northeast.
To start our night, we went to the bumper cars, which was really fun and reminded us of our childhood. It was a great experience. Soon after the hunger struck u, so we went to the restaurant
Barraca da Chiquita, where our students got to see the northeastern culinary. The chosen dish was Baião de Dois, which consists on fried manioc,
tropeiro beans and sun dried meat. After we were all fed, we went downstairs to dance a bit of forró. That’s when we met an old couple that taught us a few basic steps. We had a lot of fun.
To finish our night, nothing better than karaoke at São Cristóvão. After a few beers, none of us were shy, so we ventured ourselves with some Brazilian music and some international ones as well, but our objective was to sing Brazilian tunes and practice our Portuguese. Anyway, it was an incredible night, one of the best
RioLIVE! of all times.
