Embracing Brazil, Travel Tribe Culture Series

Embracing Brazil, Travel Tribe Culture Series

Welcome to Travel Tribe's Embracing Brazil course!

In this dynamic, fast-paced course, we will explore the history, language, food, culture, traditions, celebrations, geography, animals and famous sites of Brazil. The course then dives into the construction, history and fun facts about one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World, Christ The Redeemer.

Students explore local traditions and fun facts that shape this country into the exciting and dynamic place that it is today. Students discover the major cities, learn how to fit in like a local, and check out what to explore in each region (São Paulo, Brasília, Rio de Janeiro), and how to make the most of Brazil if you're only in town for a few days.

Whether you are planning for a post-Covid vacation, wanting a virtual adventure, or planning your next long-term-digital-nomad destination, this course is for you!

Some of the fun-fact topics we will explore:

• How did Brazil get its name, and what did it used to be known as?

• What is the official language of Brazil?

• When was Brasília designed, and what shape does the city resemble?

• How is Rio de Janeiro's Carnival celebrated, and why is it called The World's Biggest Party?

• What kind of costume would you wear to Carnival?

Travel Journal

As the saying goes, "Traveling makes you speechless, and then makes you a storyteller." In this course, you will be prompted to answer questions similar to the prompts above in your Travel Journal, in order to further your understanding and curiosity about each aspect of Brazil that we explore in this course.
