Today I was delighted to receive yet another envelope in the mail from my Brazilian friend Ludmila. This time it was a copy of the Brazilian newspaper Jornal Dance News featuring a photo of Ludmila and I on page 4. The photo was taken when Ludmila and I went dancing to Everst Hotel during my stay in Brazil.

Translation: The title (idiomatic)- "Inside The News". Above the picture - "Straight from the land of Uncle Sam the choreographer and Ballroom dancer Raphael Pungin visited Brazil in the month of July." Under the picture - "Raphael Pungin and the Brazilian dancer L. B."

"Dance News International. Chic, isn't it? Starting from September, our newspaper will be available in the United States to the Brazilian community thanks to our correspondent Raphael Pungin exchanging Ballroom dance culture news."
