Rio de Janiero conjures up images of sun-drenched Copacabana Beach, Sugarloaf Mountain in the distance and the imposing Christ the Redeemer overlooking it all; but the heart and soul is in the most famous dance party in the world – Carnival. This week we talk about how Carnival came to be, how Brazilians celebrate today and just how many feathers does it take to make the Samba Queen’s costume (a clue it’s a LOT!) Janice learns what pancake day is, I reminisce about pão de queijo and we even #throwback to a Gossip Girl episode.
Stay Cultured, J & N xoxo
