What they say about Buenos Aires

Sometimes I do babysitting jobs for some friends of my boss, when she doesn't need me to stay with her children.

There's one home when I really like do work. There are two boys, 7 and 9 years old. The older is very polite - more than any adult Brazilian that I know.

The father doesn't talk, but the mother is very nice and treat me very well. And the first time I went to their house I saw many books and one, specially, got my attention. A Portuguese Dictionary. It's fabulous. Cause most of English people has a Spanish and a french dictionary, but not Portuguese. I was so glad to see it just because one week before, I had worked for another family, and the the following questions were asked to me:

- Where are you from?

- Brazil

- Oh! Nice! So do you speak Spanish?

But she, at least is English. What about a Brazilian girl, about 18 years old, good financial position, that didn't know that Brasilia it the capital of her country? She spent all her life, in Brazil, believing that Sao Paulo is the one. And she just found out because someone, not Brazilian, asked her about and she had to call a friend. I wouldn't be surprised if she, instead Portuguese, spoke Spanish.
