Brazilian things

When I talk about Brazil or Latin America, there are many things I like to call attention to, things that are unique, which we are generally unaware of, rarely conscious about and that are so needed in our world! I'm talking about things such as optimism, creativity, community orientation, arts and entrepreneurship.

Yesterday, talking to a girl from the UK, I realised there are other more practical inventions characteristic from here: bar code payments in ATMs, per kilo meals and a can opening system that doesn't require a can opener.

Wanna come along?

Hi dear!

Nice examples, but funnily,
"bar code payments in ATMs, per kilo meals and a can opening system that doesn't require a can opener" are mainly present in Brazil (other coutries, like Colombia are just slowly starting to copy it). That´s why i love your country so much!

Brazil must be a very beautiful place to visit. Someday I will visit Brazil and Peru. I would like to taste some Brazilian food.
