Hello my names is Thiago and I live in Manaus in Brazil. Brazil is the largest country in South America. In Brazil we speak Portuguese.

Brazil has the largest rainforest in the world, called The Amazon rainforest. The Amazon rainforest is named after the Amazon River, which is the largest river in the world.

My city, Manaus is the biggest city in the Amazon region. I am not originally from Manaus. I was born in Sao Paulo and I grew up there.

Slide 14 - Slide

I am a biologist. I moved to Manaus to study the Amazon rainforest. I want to help save the rainforest. The rainforest gets smaller each year because of human activity and pollution.

This is sad because the Amazon rainforest is special. It is full of birds, animals, insects and plants. Most of the animal and plant life cannot be found anywhere else in the world. It is the important to save the forest. 

Slide 15 - Slide

Manaus has a population of 2 million people. It is hard to reach from the rest of Brazil. Manaus is almost 4, 000km from Sao Paulo! Manaus is isolated so most people come to Manaus by plane. 

Since Manaus is on the Amazon River, many people also take boats to come here. 

Slide 16 - Slide

When I visit my family in Sao Paulo, I am always a little shocked. Sao Paulo is a giant city, with almost 12 million inhabitants. There are very large skyscrapers and heavy traffic. 

You need a lot of time to drive from one side of the city to the other! I prefer to Manaus to Sao Paulo because I love nature. And of course, my job is in Manaus.

Brazil is an inspiring country. There are many different places and landscapes to visit. The coast is very long. 

We have many beautiful beaches where you can swim, scuba dive and surf. In the south of the country there are small mountains and hills. 

Slide 17 - Slide

Tourists love to visit Rio de Janeiro. The beach in Rio de Janeiro is called Copacabana and it is very beautiful. Rio de Janeiro is close to Sao Paulo. 

Brazilian Carnival is one of the best times to visit Brazil. The country becomes a giant and colorful party! Every town has a wonderful street parade.
