I used to live in Brazil and loved being there. I still can managed my Portuguese even though I don't get much chance to practice, and I adore Tumblr's Brazilian bloggers. Just came across a sweet couple of women devoted to each other -- Isabella and Natalia. Sadly, they are like some lesbian couples in the U.S.; they face twice the barriers because they are black and white. Here's my reblog on Tumblr AND a video from YouTube. The vid is great: women from over a dozen Brazilian states appear in it to wish Nat and Isabella well.
