Whatever It Takes

Last night Brazil stopped everything to watch the final episode of a soap opera called Vale Tudo (translating to english is something like Whatever It Takes).

We (the brazilians) have a very strong culture of watch soap opera, some of our productions has even won an Internacional Emy.

People gathered together in pubs, restaurants, public spaces and make bet to try to guess the mysteries from the last episode, in this case, who killed Odete Roitman (the vilain of the story).

I particularly love our soap operas because in my opinion its where Brazil's people can see ourselves. Most of the caracters represents the regular brazilian citizen, trying to live a happy life and facing the chalenges of someone who lives in a developing country faces every single day.

I am a very pround brazilian and i love almost everything about a culture, from music to books, from books to films, and last but not least, our delicious food.

After years watching soap operas I am leaving my "career" as a noveleiro (soap opera fan). Now i'll try to focus my attention in books and writing.

This post I wrote entirely without a help of an AI or Google Translator. One of the goals writing a english version of my blog is to practice my writing skills in english. So forgive me if something sounded confused or even gramatically wrong.
