Visited Brazil for 3 weeks March-April 2019. Friendship Force group of 11. First week as tourists; second week each person hosted by Brazilian family in Florianopolis; third week each person hosted by Brazilian family in Sao Paulo. Tight schedule; wish I had more time with my Brazilian families and my new Brazilian friends. Overall - Brazil is wonderful with wonderful people.
