Sample Answer for Blog 11

  I have had the opportunity to travel for the first time to another country. I traveled to Rio de Janeiro and I really can’t describe how amazing it is.

  I went for vacation on August and when I arrived to the airport I took an airport’s taxi but I was really scared because the driver took my backpacks and he told me to get in the car, I did it carefully but I kept feeling scared, then I heard a phone call and he started to talk Portuguese ( I didn’t understand anything, so I was really scared). Then, I felt relax because I realized that I was making myself crazy for nothing, so I started to enjoy the ride. Then, I arrived to the place where I was going to stay and the security person was really nice. After I finished to unpack, I went to the beach to relax myself. After that, I went to my room, did my things and went to sleep because the travel was really exhausting because I took three airplanes.

  The next day I did my itinerary, First, I went to Pão de Açúcar, I took a car and people use to pay with tattered bills, it was impressive because I’m use to claiming  to people who give me this kind of money. When, I arrived to the touristic place, the view was really fascinating; I couldn’t stop taking photos of everything. Second, I went to the most famous touristic place: Cristo Redentor, It was really beautiful and the view was also amazing, there was a café where you could drink something and eat at the same moment where you are relaxing watching the view.

  Finally, the other days I went to different places but I would like to mention some of them, I went to Maracaná Stadium to watch a match between Flamengo and River, It was an exciting and challenging match. Also, I went to Lapa because I read it  was the place of dancing, It’s a really surprising place at night because you can feel all the energy of people dancing on the streets, all the music you can hear, etc. Furthermore, I went with a tour to the FAVELA, we walked into a house and the family was really nice.

 On the other hand, everything not was exciting because when I was on the beach, somebody stole my wallet. It was the only frightening situation in my whole vacation.

  To summarize, I really loved my vacations in Rio de Janeiro, I believe it is the country where you can feel different emotions and do many things. Also, the people is really friendly and make you feel at home. If somebody asked to me to recommend one place to travel, I no doubt would tell Rio de Janeiro.
