Brazilian Culture: Signs you're in Rural Brazil
I was watching a short news report when I realized that within the video are many telltale signs of Brazilian life. The report itself is about the “Macgyver of the Trans-Amazonian”, a 20-year old guy from Piauí who is basically a self-taught auto mechanic. Despite the nickname, Edson has never seen the TV show Macgyver, but a truck-driver once told him about the fictional character and that’s when Edson took the name as his own.
The video (in Portuguese), which you can watch here, reveals life throughout most of Brazil. Below, I’ll list everything I noticed while watching it.
