brasil

so in a major shift from expectation
i've spent most of my first two weeks in new zealand
learning about brazil

obviously this is a bit surprising but it's a fact
my boss and guide through my time in nz so far is from brazil
and she has very kindly been showing me around
and introduced me to her friends
who are also from brazil

so last night i end up in a late bar/club
dancing with people from the land of samba and salsa (it's funny when the musc starts they do to )
and today
i was invited for lunch with the gang and got to sample
authentic brazilian cousine
bobo i think is what it's called
creamy coconut sauce with shrimp and peppers and i thinkg i heard somebody say tapioca
very nice i have to say
similar to some Thai dishes I've eaten but lighter

and i even got some to take away to eat tomorrow, thanks dani

anyway
so far new zealand equals brazil
bring it on
i say
