Today I took a break from my research and decided to type an email to the U.S. Consulate in Brazil. I asked them what tactics they are using to get Brazilians to travel to the United States. The Brazilian family I will be hosting said they waited six hours to get an interview for their visa. There are over 7,000 Brazilians interviewed everyday in the city of Sao Paulo alone. I hope to hear back from them! I also decided to watch an interview of Eike Batista, the richest man in Brazil and the richest man in Latin America. It was a very interesting interview! His interview really shows Brazil's rise as an economic power and how much Brazil's plentiful commodities have helped them.
