A Carioca Heartbeat Teaching Language Through Samba
Language is a dance — let’s samba it out.
Born in Santa Teresa, I grew up with the beat of samba in my blood and the taste of *acarajé* on my tongue. I stopped being a tour guide when I realized what people really want isn't facts — it's connection. So now I teach on balconies, in *botecos*, and under the Lapa Arches, using lyrics, laughter, and the occasional *caipirinha*. Mistakes? They’re just part of the groove.
What I'm Into: Carnival parades, my balcony at sunset, lyrics that make you cry, Portuguese slang, the taste of *brigadeiro*
