Welcome, dear readers, to the Fala Aí Portuguese for Foreigners blog! As always, we’re here to share with you some tips and insights about Brazilian life and culture. Today, let’s talk about a very special time: the post-Carnival period.
Carnival in Brazil is undoubtedly one of the most famous and lively festivals in the world. Millions of people gather all over the country to celebrate with samba school parades, street blocos, and extravagant parties. However, after the last blocos parade and the confetti and streamers are swept from the streets, many wonder: “What now? What to do?”
Well, the good news is that Brazil continues to be full of life and exciting activities even after Carnival. Here are some suggestions on what you can do to make the most of the post-festival time:
- Explore tranquil beaches: While Carnival may crowd the most famous beaches, after the festival ends, you can enjoy quieter and more relaxing beaches. Take the opportunity to sunbathe, take a refreshing dip in the sea, or simply relax with a good book by the shore.
- Hike through lush nature: Brazil is blessed with an incredible diversity of natural landscapes. After Carnival, it’s the perfect time to explore trails, waterfalls, and natural reserves. Take a hike through the Atlantic Forest, explore the Amazon Rainforest, or discover the beauties of the Pantanal.
- Experience local cuisine: Brazilian cuisine is a true feast for the senses. After Carnival, take the opportunity to try typical dishes from different regions of the country. From feijoada to acarajé, from barbecue to moqueca, there’s a plethora of flavors waiting to be discovered.
- Participate in cultural festivals: Even after Carnival, Brazil remains vibrant with cultural festivals throughout the year. Look for music, dance, theater, and visual arts events in your area. These festivals are a great way to immerse yourself in local culture and meet new people.
