Hallo!

My name is Gabriela but you can call me Gabi. I am 24 years old and come from Brazil. I am studying Food Engineering and came to Munich for an internship. I arrived here on September and going to stay for 6 months.

Brazil is an amazing country known by its typical food the “feijoada (beans with different kinds of pork)” and brigadeiros (Delicious sweet! A piece of heaven!) as well as its typical drink “caipirinha” (make with cachaça, lemon, sugar and ice).

I was born in São Paulo city which is the biggest city in Brazil with almost 12 million people but I live in Campinas – the third biggest city in São Paulo state.

Brazil is very famous by its Carnaval which is a party made of parades and customs that happens in February and lasts about 3 days. It is full of music, colors, brightness and happiness. The Rio de Janeiro’s Carnaval is in Guinnes Book as the biggest Carnaval all over the world.

Our caipirinha drink is also famous around the world. It is made of lemon, a bit of sugar, ice and what we call cachaça that is a destilled drink from sugar cane. It is a strong drink but you definetely should try it!

I posted a picture of me and all those delicious Brazilian things for you guys! Hope you enjoy it.

Tschüss,

Gabi
