A contrast

Hi people who live in Rio de Janeiro! Today Im going to write a little about your city and I ask you to correct me if Im had a wrong impression about any subject. When I went to Rio de Janeiro in the beginning of this year, I had the opportunity to know people, places and another lifestyle, different than I knew at Taquaritinga. The wonderful city is located beside the beach, and it can simply make you feel like you are in another world. There is a point about food that I got surprised: the carioquinha bean is the bean that we know and which we eat almost every day! In the other hand the black bean, which is less common here in So Paulo, is the normal bean to them. Another curiosity about foods is that the prices here in Taquaritinga and at downtown of Rio de Janeiro are quite the same, but its higher when you get closer to the ocean coast. Another common thing is enjoying happy hour at bars also enjoying the beach after the work. Its the kind of life we all asked to God! At the beach its very frequent to find person playing beach soccer, walking, playing volleyball, foot volley and swimming. Particularly I like it because all these things means HEALTH. My travel to Rio de Janeiro was unforgettable, and I intend to go there again with my family and friends, so they can know the Wonderful City too.
