Brazil: more competitive market for apps Hi, this my first entry here about technology, I'll be so glad if some friends on Italk help me with any advice. Brazil leads the list of countries as the more competitive market in the world for application mobile, according to the survey called "2016 App Olympics", conducted by Cheetah Ad Platform. The country showed at the top, ahead of the Mexico and United States, as the highest engagement per users and also with as the market most competitive for mobile apps. Brazilians use average 29 apps and engagement with 53 per month. For here, the areas with low competition are education, action, racing and simulation, whereas the high competition is productive, personalization, social and games, that proves the great market share for to exploration over here. This away, work in this area gives me a great perspective of professional future.

Some fun facts about Brazilians Before I start, It's important to emphasize that my target here is not to discussions of cultural stereotyping but only create a relaxing notebook about funny things about my compatriots and also, of course, receive some help with my English :) I had the opportunity to met people from differents parts of the word, and I noticed some different behaviors that are just particular from Brazilians. That said, I would like to list some simple examples below: We greet with kisses (one, two, even there!) on the cheeks when met each other, and that also happens in the first met (obviously in informal conversation). During a conversation, it is normal talking close and touching each other (don't worry about that, we aren't fighting!). We have an obsession for hygiene, It's top priority. For us, It's normal to brush the teeth 4 times and take a shower at least 3 times a day. Brazilians like so much soccer, so if you say Maradona (Argentinian player) is better than Pele, probably you'll see your Brazilian friend a little upset. "Caipirinha" (alcoholic drink most famous in Brazil) is shared, don't wait for an individual cup (everybody drinks in the same cup). I'm trying to talk about different subjects here on Italki, I think is the best way to improve my English. So, I'm gonna be so grateful if someone helps me with some advice. Many thanks!

30 days' vacation I have never had a vacation until December, It sounds crazy but when you live in Sao Paulo is normal to find somebody in the same situation. I did not stop and planning my vacation - I did not even know how to do that. Even so, my first vacation's day has come, and I will be pretty honest, It was so boring at all! I did not know what I must do. In the first days, I thought to myself at least 5 times on day: "should I find something interesting on TV and spend my whole day here?", or, "should I surfing on facebook, Instagram or something like that?" or, even better, "yep, I must travel around!" but I did not plan nothing (please, do not forget this little detail). Then, while I was organising my bedroom I could find some old stuff and among them my old books, my favourite bands between 2000 and 2006, friends' names from high school and song lyrics that I wrote during the classes, so I could travel into my memories.Today, I can figure out how many things has changed and who we are merely the reflect of our own past (ok, It looks like a "cliche" but I do not have best words in English to say that). In short, my vacation was so good! If have I some advice for your next vacation? yes, I have! just open your old box located in your bedroom and enjoy your old memories! (I hope you guys help me with my grammar and other tips!) Thanks
