WEEK 5
In Russia they speak russian. Brazil they speak spanish. In America they speak English. I learned that Russia covers a 1/9 of the earths land mass. Russia only has 142 million people. Russia has 9 different times zones. Russia has the worlds largest forest reserves and 1/4 of the worlds freshwater. I would travel to Russia again, to learn more bout it but not do this blog again. I learned from this assignment not really any thing, the only stuff i really learned bout is listed above.

Early on, the culture of Russian ancestors was much influenced by neighbouring Finno-Ugric tribes and by nomadic, mainly Turkic , peoples of the Pontic steppe. In the late 1st millennium AD the Scandinavia n Vikings, or Varangians
Eastern Europe is a region lying in the Eastern part of Europe. The term is highly context-dependent and even volatile, as there are "almost as many definitions of Eastern Europe as there are scholars of the region"...

Foods
While the principle foods consumed in Brazil are fairly uniform across the country, there are regional specialties, many of which are eaten on festive occasions. In the northeastern state of Bahia ingredients of African origin—palm oil ( dendê ), dried shrimp, peanuts, malagueta peppers—are the basis of regional cuisine in such dishes as vatapá (seafood stew) and acarajé (black-eyed pea fritters).
Russians generally love meat. Starvation means having no bread, while poverty means going without hard sausage kolbasa. Sausage, pork, beef, mutton, chicken, and dried or salted fish are widely available and relatively cheap. Only some can afford to buy delicacies such as veal, duck, sturgeon, and salmon. Traditional aristocratic fare included such fancy foods, many of which are popular among the newly wealthy classes today.
The place i wanna vist.
The views from Christ the Redeemer are well...quite frankly there isn't anything that can be written that can properly describe the views of the deep purple ocean spilling up against the curvaceous coastline with oval shaped mountains rising high into the sky.
