Brazil tour was WONDERFUL. Started off in Salvador da Bahia which was great :) Muito obrigada to Patricia, Ana Carla and the organisers of the ACBEU conference. Fantastic groups in Porto Alegre for the OTA course and it was wonderful working with Nancy Lake, Tim Ward and the local OUP team! The course in Recife ran smooothly and the groups were really participative :) Eduardo took Tim Herdon and I on a great tour of Olinda and out for 'acaraje' :) The groups in Rio were fantastic...very active teachers with excellent ideas! Lovely dinner one night by the sea at the foot of Sugarloaf mountain with Carlos and incredible night life and samba in Lapa with Janaina!!! Last day in Rio fantastic day in Urca, Santa Teresa, Boto do Fogo (Samba concert) and Lapa with my friend Andre :)

Hi Nina!
It's me, Jimmy from OTA Recife!
I just came here to tell you I learned a lot with you throughout the course. You are also a very friendly person.
Hope to see you again soon.

Dear Nina,
How are you?
I`ve talked to Janaina (my friend and co-worker) and we`ve been wondering how we can translate TETRAMAP into Portuguese. Moreover, would you mind sending us other sites with examples of Tetramap and its usage in an English class? I mean, we`ve seen the site you posted. However, we still have some doubts about it.
Regards, Erik and Janaina
Dear Nina!
It`s me again!
I know you`re very busy right now, but if you have time would you mind sending me the photos you took during your sessions?
Remember I told you that after the meeting, Janaina and I are supposed to give our school a feedback and we need some photos to share the moments we had with you and the others.
Thanks a lot.

Great blog, Nina. Perhaps you'd care to take a look at mine. It's new, but I'm working hard at it so that by the time next school year starts, it'll be in full swing! ;-)
