The main language spoken is Portuguese. However, there are many international visitors in this popular town. People often travel long distances to explore Tiradentes.
In Tiradentes, people use the real (or reais in plural) for spending and saving. One real equals three U.S. dollars.
A bottle of water costs 2.50 reais.
In Tiradentes, I tried many different incredible restaurants. The state of Minas Gerais is well-known for having the best cheese in Brazil. It was a fun (and tasty) experience to try the many different types of cheese that are produced in the area.
I listened to sertaneja from Brazil. Many people compare sertaneja music to country music in the United States. Lots of people love dancing to this type of music in Brazil.
The most activity I had this week was trying all the different types of cheese in the state of Minas Gerais. It is very interesting to learn about the process of making cheese in different cities.
