Party!

Well I still haven't started work yet because most of the people from Coque Vive and Neifma are on vacation. Soooooo..... Party time! I went to Bar UK on tuesday night with some AIESEC friends and random couch surfers. I met one of my hosts that I will be staying with near the end of my trip and all I can say is that it will be trouble (we both enjoy Tequilla!) It was a pretty good night, A Brasilian cover band was playing American rock music and they were very entertaining, The lead singer reminded me of Iggy Pop. Sorry no pics.

I stayed at a really nice apartment near the beach, but sadly by the time I got up everyone else staying there had left so I decided to head back to my host family instead of going to the beach. That night to shake off the partying from the last two nights I decided to take it easy. I went to a town called Orlinda with Victor and he showed me where the Carnival takes place and a sweet house I can stay at when I come back for Carnival. I tried Tappioca (not the pudding) and then headed back to Recife. Then we did the Brasilian equivilent of street hockey! Except it was in a cage at an apartment building.
Friday night I went to Jaja, a Forró dance bar. It was ok, I learned how to Forró dance, it is kind of like a two step, very easy. After Jaja I went to an after hours bar called the Garage. It is called the Garage because they fix cars there during the day. It played international music and is very underground. It was awesome! One of the coolest Bars I have ever been too.
