Dr. Fatima is an EF Language student from Brazil. She is here to improve here English, but we think she speaks very well already. Fatima is an endocronologist. She has 2 daughters; 13 years old and 15 years old (who is Lucas's new pen-pal). Her husband is a mining engineer.We are really enjoying her visit and are learning a lot about Brazil. For instance, Brazilians speak Porteguese, not Spanish. Similar to Australia, the Porteguese sent all their criminals to colonize the "new land." Did you know that Brazilian women usaually keep their maidens names when they get married? Do you know the name of the animal in the photo? It is called a cabivara. They inhabit the lake near her house. Did you know that they do not have such things as foreclosures in Brazil? The government or banks can never take your house? 12 oranges cost less than 50 cents. And ladies - a pedicure and manicure can be had for only $7.00 US. Check out the Brazilian recipe below.
