I've been practicing my Portuguese too. Eu adoro a idioma portugues. Ela é muito linda, e divertido de falar! Eu practicar com muitas pessoas. Eu estou muito mau ainda, mas eu vou aprender muito rapido cuando eu chego no brasil. Minha familia hospedeira parece muito simpatica ainda. Eu vou ter uma grande ano com eles! (My translation: I love the Portugues language. It is very beautiful and fun to speak! I practice with many people. I am still very bad, but I will learn very fast when I arrive in Brazil.)
I was just thinking: I am so happy with where I am going. It's so funny how many times where I wanted to go changed. In the end, I am going someplace I never expected, and am utterly thrilled! (Which is probably why I'm not supposed to have expectations!) Mato Grosso do Sul is a place where I probably would never have visited on a trip to Brazil. I can go to Rio or the Northeast on a trip (I'm hoping to visit Brazil again!). The South seems nice, but I don't think it's for me. The places that fascinate me are the less... popular/ common ones. Places in the Center West or North would all be perfect for me! (I'm going to the Center West). I also hope to be able to come back and explore more of Brazil someday. I'd like to see some of Mato Grosso and go visit the Amazon (if I don't go on the AFS trip). So yeah... yay!

Meu inglês não é muito bom, mas português é a minha língua nativa (My English is not so good, but Portuguese is my native tongue).
