Dear Ana, 
I’m having a great time in Brazil. I’ve just arrived from a trip to Curitiba. What a nice city! Beautiful and 
clean! And we really enjoyed the cold weather for a change. Have you ever been there? If not, I totally 
recommend it! 
Things are going well here. I’ve met a lot of Brazilians at university and they have been extremely helpful. I 
understand the university assessment system way better now. I’ve done well on my exams. 
I miss you! 
Love, 
Samara

Hello, guys! How are you? 
I’ve__________ around the North of Brazil for ten days. I’ve been to the city of Manaus, the capital of 
Amazonas, and I’ve also been to a lodge along the Negro river. The river is enormous! Really impressive! 
People from here are quite cheerful. There’s always a smile in their faces. __________ I’ve been in the area 
for a long time, I haven’t seen many wild animals. I guess it is not very common to see jaguars and 
anacondas. 
__________ Manaus is a large city with a population of more than 2 million inhabitants, the area of the lodge 
is not populated, because it is in the jungle. 
I recommend you bring light clothes when you come here for a vacation, because the weather in the jungle 
is extremely hot! 
I’ll keep you posted about my new adventures here in the North! 
Talk to you soon!
