We are protected by the language,...in Brazil.

The art of Luis Camões cannot be qualified by a common person. The precision of the Portuguese  language made a poesy, the theme that sorrounds the portuguese discovery of new words.All is perfect in this great narrative (Os Lusiadas).
It is with no doubts one of the major literary books of all times.



Luis de Camões can only be compared with other major writers of the word literacy, like Shakspeare, Miguel de Cervantes, Eça de Queirós, Fernanado Pessoa and a few more.
I would like to add something interesting about Camões:
 In the year 1528, he was travelling by ship with his girlfriend but the ship sank and he could save only his book ( Os lusiadas). His girlfriend died and he of course made a poem for her. The poem is:

Alma minha gentil que te partiste

Tão cedo desta vida descontente
Repousa lá no céu eternamente
E viva eu cá na terra sempre triste

Se lá no assento etério, onde subiste
Memória desta vida se consente
Não te esqueças daquele amor ardente
Que já nos olhos meus tão puro viste.
E se vires que pode merecer-te
Alguma cousa a dor que me ficou
Da mágoa , sem remédio, de perde-te,
Roga a Deus que teus anos encurtou
Que tão cedo de cá me leva ver-te,
Quão cedo meus olhos te levou.

Camões.

Delicious food in Brazil


We have so delicious food, juice, fruit,... I miss brazilian food,...but what to eat, how do we eat in restaurants?
Most restaurants in Brazil sell food per kilo. Maybe now its about 20,00 reais one kilo. So if you eat 500g
you pay 10,00 reais and you can choose everythinng from salads, meat,... Its a kind of self-service.
Juice is something that you can also ask. My favourite is pineapple with mint or wattermellow juice,.....I love it.Desserts are also fantastic. There is a sweet called Quindim,..




                                                            Quindim

or pudim de leite

After delicious lunch , in the afternoon  you can have coffee with pão de queijo. Its famous in Brazil.
