This Is Brazil!

As interest builds in the 2014 FIFA World Cup, Brazilian-born Australian Fernanda de Paula heads home to rediscover her roots. Brazil is absolutely crazy about football and has a rich multicultural diversity that resonates within every Brazilian she meets, including chefs, musicians, artists and everyday workers. Sprawling over eight million square kilometres, Brazil is as massive as it is majestic. From the mighty Amazon in the north to the gaúcho cowboy culture in the south, it's a country with passionate people and unforgettable scenery. Fernanda travels across this vast country to showcase the food, football and culture specific to the 12 cities playing host to the matches. It's impossible to overstate the excitement surrounding Brazil's second-time hosting of the World Cup. When the national team is playing football, the entire nation is focused on the game and its heart is on the field. From the pounding drums of the Afro-Brazilian capital, Salvador, to the floating villages of the Amazon, Fernanda meets the people that infuse everyday life in Brazil with that same passion.
