We also like to ride bikes, skateboard, play videogames  and fly kites (when it is not raining). And, of course, the most important thing, we love to play soccer!! It is awesome!!



That is it!! See you! =D

On the weekends


On the weekends, we like the parks but we also like to go to the shopping malls (there are some) and go to the cinema.


We also like to go to the beach. It is near the city or to go to Morretes city and eat a delicious dish called Barreado.
"Barreado" typical dish from Parana

What we do in our weekends...


Today it is raining a lot all day. So I decided to talk about our hobbies.
There are several green areas in Curitiba. People here worries about quality of life.  We have Barigui Park, where you can exercise, run, walk with your dog, ride a bike or simply watch the capivaras, typical animals from Brazil.
