Maria is a PHD student at IVABS, Massey Univeristy. Maria is from Sao Jose do Rio Preto in Brazil. Brazil has a population of 191 million people. The Brazil flag has the Southern Cross on it just like the New Zealand flag does as we are both in the Southern Hemisphere. In Brazil they call New Zealand – Nova Zelandia.
Maria taught us how to play Brincadeira de roda, a circle game. It was fun! Maria speaks English and Portugese and is taking Spanish classes.
Maria taught us some phrases in Portugese:
“How are you?” – Como vai voce?”
“I am fine” – Eu estou bem.
