Coisas várias #2

various things continued One of the more challenging things I face with Brazilian culture is summed up in the phrase "comi mais," or Eat more. Normally I eat breakfast and lunch and stop eating solid food by 2pm. Brazilians prefer to eat 5 or 6 times a day. Some are full meals,others snacks but it just keeps coming. As a guest I try to accommodate this by showing appreciation for the food and for those who prepared it. I am learning to eat very small portions. The other day I got a much needed haircut. An older gentleman cut my hair,thinned it, trimmed my sideburns,mustache and even my eyebrows for half what I would pay in the US.
