and they all speak

Brazil is loud and humid. Sau Paulo, where we began, is large and somewhat like New york, but more extreme. People drive like it´s a video game. The population of sau paulo alone, excluding the area built up aroud it, is something around 11 million. you can feel the crush of human existance pushing against you everywhere in the city. All the cars

ezra:
while it's always good to hear from you on live journal, you PROMISED you'd call before you left. emily's boyfriend is brazilian and i had a list of interesting slang tidbits and humor that you might have found useful. i lost the list, though.

ack!

Lisa! I´m very sorry I broke my promise. I meant to call the last day after i finished packing, but then i stayed up all night packing anyway, so that didn´t work. Oh well, i thought. I´ll call her from sau paulo. But it turns my calling card doesn´t work in Brazil. I thought i´d email you from saul paulo, but the people i way staying with didn´t have a working computer. And then everything got busy and confusing. I would have written you sooner from here (fortaleza), but the same night i wrote my journal entry this computer died too, and it just got fixed today. Not that this is an excuse. just an explanation. I should have just called you from Colorado before i left, and then everything would have gone swimmingly
