The famous Copacabana beach became our volleyball court

Once upon a time an English man who had never played volleyball before…. ??. It was a good day. Good for speaking Portuguese with others in an informal and fun way.

The famous Copacabana beach became our volleyball court in this RioLIVE! Only across the street from the school, nothing better than enjoying the afternoon on the beach after classes in the morning. We started by learning volleyball vocabulary in Portuguese. Then the students from seven different countries got together for the matches that turned out to be very competitive although the difficulty of playing on sand. After playing, we stayed a while at the beach just relaxing and getting to know each other better.
