As you walk through the door you are taken back in time, reliving the carioca Belle Époque of gentlemen in suits, a time when fast-food chains and the rush of everyday life didn't even exist. ESTABLISHED ON 05 MARCH 1860, CONFEITARIA CAVÉ IS THE OLDEST COFFEE AND PASTRY SHOP IN RIO DE JANEIRO. IT WAS FOUNDED BY CHARLES AUGUSTE CAVÉ, A FRENCHMAN WHO STAYED IN CHARGE OF THE BUSINESS UNTIL 1922. SINCE THEN MANY OWNERS TOOK CHARGE OF THE HOUSE. It was impossible to pass through the corner of Uruguaiana and Sete de Setembro streets without taking a look inside the beautiful building to see the wonderfully ornate ice-cream bowls which seemed more like a work of art. They were so magical and amazing, that used to whet the appetite of even those who did not appreciate ice cream. The architecture was influenced by various countries: chandeliers and glassware from France, custom chairs and tables were designed by the spaniard Cólon, wall lights from Brazil etc. The lines and shapes were also used to create its famous ice creams reminding chickens, pyramids and peach basket. Confeitaria Cavé has always been frequented by figures of the city, sharing the hall with the locals. There are reports that the Mayor Pereira Passos, responsible for an urban reform that completely changed the city landscape, was a habitué of the house.

In the case of Porto (Portugal), more than 20 years after being declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO (in 1996), tourism has had remarkable effects on its physical, social and economic features. Therefore, Porto—and in particular its city centre—is taken in this article as the object of study. The interest of this space lies in the fact that it has been rapidly transformed from a devalued old area into the centre of an important urban tourism destination on a European level. Based on the spatial and temporal analysis of a set of indicators related to tourism, housing and economic activity, we identify the main threats that this “culture-led regeneration”—much supported by tourism—could have on the cultural values of Porto.

Dear Friend of Chez François, The world is filled with different cultures-not better or worse, just different. American Culture values ideas of entrepreneurship, independence and self reliance. We call our way, The American Dream. French culture strongly values ideals of unified identity, group reliance and Joi de Vivre (Joy of Lifestyle). Some people are good at French Culture and some a better fit in American Culture. It is not a matter of better or worse, they are just different. The reason the human race has been so successful is not because we’re the strongest animals-far from it. Size and might alone do not guarantee success. We’ve succeeded as a species because of our ability to form cultures. Cultures are groups of people who bond around a common set of values and beliefs. When we share the values and beliefs with others, we form a trust. Trust of others allows us to rely on them to help protect us, or lend a helping hand. We have a great lineup of summer events planned, come celebrate with us.

Basic Greetings and Phrases Want to say “Hello!” to the cute Portuguese girl/guy you regularly see in the residence? Want to get out of a situation where an elderly woman suddenly starts recounting her story to you in perfect Portuguese and you haven’t a single clue what she is talking about? Fear not, I present thee the most commonly used phrases and greetings in Portuguese. Although most Portuguese people speak English, one of the things that they really appreciate is hearing a foreigner try to speak their native tongue. So even if you think that your Portuguese accent is not too refined, it is a good idea to nonetheless try to speak to them in Portuguese. English Portuguese When do you say it? Hello! Olá! (O-la) When you want to greet somebody casually. Good morning! Bom dia! (Bom-dee-ah) Until lunchtime. Good afternoon! Boa tarde! (Bo-ah-tarde) After lunchtime. Good night! Boa noite! (Bo-ah-noyy-te) After sunset. Thank you very much ! Muito obrigado/a ! (Muy-to-ob-ri-ga- Males use ‘Muito obrigado!’ while females doo/da) use ‘Muito obrigada’. Sorry. Desculpe/a. (Desh-kulp/-kul-pa) Use “Desculpe” when you are talking to someone older than you.
