Summer Festival 1 and 2 Abig

10.01.2016

For the first time, we slept a lot... after we were properly dressed, Gloria and Fatima went to a music festival. The festival started much later than expected, so we had to wait in the rain for about 1.5 hours. But despite that, we had a lot of fun. When we finally got inside, luckily the weather got better too. There was a party tent where they played house and electro music, otherwise it was mostly forro music. At first, it felt a little strange because we noticed that Brazilians usually go in larger groups. But after we had released our energy in one of the party tents (we danced and jumped), we felt great.

We also found it funny how the men there wanted to kiss us before they even knew our names. But we have to admit that the men there didn't really match our taste. So we could easily do without it.

It was even more embarrassing that some people wanted to dance, which could have been fun actually. But both of us had no idea how to dance forro, especially when we watched the others, it made us a little shy.

So that you can imagine it, here's a link from 2015. Unfortunately, we couldn't find any good videos from that year:

Unfortunately, we realized after 5 hours of walking around that there was no place to sit. So we decided to go home earlier than usual. Our aunts were very surprised to see us back at 10 pm. (Yes, we can also come home early)

That's why we bought better tickets for next Sunday, which also have seating options.

We went to this festival for the second time. This time we had better tickets, but we still spent most of the time in the main area. We were lucky with the weather this time too, it started raining a little when we were in a taxi on the way home.

We also danced forro in the tent this time. Once we overcame our shyness, it wasn't so bad. On the contrary... we really impressed the Brazilians with our moves :D

It was also fun to meet a new friend. We met him while we were sleeping next to the festival tent and he joined us from there. His name is Arthur and he thanked us a lot :)

Meanwhile, we found a link from that year too:
