This is a traditional capoeira Angola move, Paulão and Batista are doing it. Angola is the slow version of Capoeira, and you use this move if you are tired or to test how much the other person knows about the traditions of capoeira Angola. |

A picture of Kim (closer than the one above) and me. He gave me my capoeira name together with Vladimir. I am called Branquinha de Neve, little snowwhite, because my skin is so white |

And ofcourse there was a brasilian party, with the band from Vladimir, Feijão Preto, which means black beans a traditional brasilian food. |

This is mestre Itapoan who cut his foot playing football, realy deep and did not want to go to the hospital. Later I heared that he tried to glue his foot... before he went back to Brasil. |
