Day 55 : Off to South America!

I am on my way to South America, which will take me a whole day of travelling, due to a transit and waiting time of 5hrs at Sao Paulo Airport before flying to Natal! 

On one hand, I am excited about going to South America, and on the other, there’s some fear – due to safety and also language, since lesser people will be able to speak English. 

Furthermore, as my first stop is Brazil and Portuguese is used here, it means I will have to pick up a whole new language from scratch, and fast!  It is said to be similar to Spanish though, so I just have to hope that what I had learn in Spanish so far will be able to help me through this country!

Crossing my fingers!
