The building I live in has lots of students from around the world, so I get exposed to lots of different music. This week, I heard music from Portugal, the United States, Italy and France.
This week, somebody I work with had a birthday so we all went outside to sing Happy Birthday and eat cake! I don't know the words to Happy Birthday in Portuguese, but it was still fun to celebrate friends in this way.
My mom bought me a little guidebook on things to do in the Azores, across all 9 islands. I spent a lot of time reading it, and that's why I decided to go to Pico for the weekend!
This week, I swam and played water polo! The local high school hosts lots of different sports that people can play. Water polo is difficult, but very fun!
The university here is celebrating, as they just got a new boat to study the ocean! They have started giving tours with the new boat, and I hope to see it soon!
