1- How far are you from the Amazon?
I am a bit far from the Amazon, because it is in the North, and I live in the Center, closer to the south. Come to think of it, I've never visited the north of the country, and I would really like to visit it someday. I would also like to visit your country, and see all you've mentioned in your blog.
2- How does your government fight pollution?
In Brazil we have stations to do the water treatment, which is very important for the country. The government does recycling activities as well. When we are talking about pollution, I think it's important that the government tries to do everything to avoid it, but then it's also true that people should worry about it, and do whatever they can to help the environment.
3- How do you celebrate carnival?
Well, carnival it's one of the most popular brazilian parties, and it is celebrated with big, different parties all over the country. In my city, there are places you go to celebrate carnival, where you will listen to music related to carnival, including a few old songs people use to dance when this holiday began to get popular.
Well, I hope you have learned a bit more about Brazil. Take care.

3-Would you like to visit our country? Why? Why not?
Yes, because I think Argentina is a great country. My parents have been there four times and they loved it, they talked so well about Argentina that it really made my mind about visiting it. They were celebrating their wedding anniversary and they found Buenos Aires perfect for the occasion, especially the tango apresentations.
4- what can you tell about crime and insecurity in your country?
In some parts of the country it's a really complex problem. The security isn't so good in the outskirts of the big towns, so assaults and thiefts are common. but in the most part of the country, the security is good, and we hardly ever have problems with these things.

We don't have many options in the city we live, so we always go to the same places. More than everything, we like to go to discos or parties in general. Also, we like to go to the movies or to restaurants. :)

We have different kinds of discos here, but most of them play the same styles. The most common kinds of music are eletronic music and funk, a very popular hit in Brazil. But if you want, you can find rock shows and whatever. ;)
