I met a family of Aussies in Bangkok and we talked. He said he had there in Sidney a Brazilian family friend of him.

Since those were the only Brazilians he'd been in contact, he wanted to know about a second Brazilian. (he didn;t say that, I got it form his angle) He said the Brazilian son wanted to learn Rugby but he was never on time. The parents forgot the traning sections, really disorganzed.

But he was puzzled! The guy was very successful real estate!! Then it downed on me that he was puzzled because he was making a connection between, pontuality, organization, tidyness with sucess... And by his own understanding, that man should be a falure.

Ok I gave him a lesson -you don't know me when I start talking!!!- in Brazilness. He was getting everything and everything started to fall in the right place.

I'm not a Brazilian, you know that typical Brazilian. I call myself a Brazilian passport holder. I am only Brazilian if I get together with at least 5 others. Below that I am myself.
