Leisure time!

If I were to describe every sort of leisure programme available in Brazil, I would take forever so I will just mention a few here, the more...popular ones I may say.

The most popular form of leisure programme would obviously be soccer. The Brazilians' passion for soccer has never been in doubt ever since the sport was introduced. Arguably, some of the best soccer players have come from Brazil, and will continue to as passion for the game grows. Children, in their leisure time, would just meet up and play kick-about with their friends.

Another popular form of leisure programme would be just heading down to the beach for a day of relaxation/sports, whichever you prefer. Either way, it would be on the famous Brazilian beaches, where white sand, beautiful waves and great scenery work together to blow your day away.

In terms of festivals, Brazil is probably one of the most active and lively in organising and holding festival events. Perhaps the most well known and significant event would be the Carnival  which is held in Rio de Janeiro on February every year. During the event, locals and tourists party all night long to live music, local processions and brazilian samba. Making it a must see event for those participating and those spectating alike.
