1
How's it going, y'all? It's just past sunset, right around 5:50 p.m. in the evening here in Brazil. And since it is right past sunset, I figured, hey, why not walk onto the beach and smoke a little bit of a cigarette on the beach here in Brazil right after sunset. As such, that is exactly what I'm going to be doing during this video today. And overall, I'm looking forward to having this experience. I want to smoke a cigarette. I want to enjoy a beautiful view.
2
And I want to enjoy the final signs of sunlight on my final day here in Brazil. That's right. It is my final day in Brazil. My flight leaves in I would say around about 6 hours or so. My flight is at like 1:00 a.m. Going to be leaving the airport probably around 10:00. I've only got a couple more hours here in Brazil. It's been an amazing trip. I've loved my time here. Brazil really has treated me right. So, you know, I want to send off the trip with a little bit of a cigarette. In specific today, I am going to be smoking a Paulistinha classic palheiro cigarette from Brazil.
3
This is a cigarette that has a corn husk wrapper and palheiros are a I would have to say historic Brazilian type of tobacco product. So I don't think there's any better way to send off this trip with than with a palheiro is what I'm trying to say. Got my words a little bit jumbled up. I'll acknowledge I've got a little bit of a buzz going on right now. Drank a little bit of alcohol before starting this video. But I do suppose without further ado, I should probably go ahead and actually get to smoking one of my palheiro right here. And I do suppose I should probably go ahead and actually get to enjoying the view around me and get to enjoying this cigarette I have now, shouldn't I? So, let's go ahead and uh get this pack all opened up if I can. Let's go ahead and grab one of the cigarettes inside all out. And hopefully it won't be too hard to light one of these because it's not terribly windy out here. I've been on the beach a couple times and definitely sometimes it is quite windy and sometimes it ain't. And thankfully today it really ain't all that windy, I got to admit. Well, without further ado, let's go ahead and just lean down a bit, get out of what wind there is, and let's go ahead and get my Paulistinha Classic palheiro all lit up, and let's go ahead and get to smoking a cigarette on the beach here in Brazil right after sunset. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying?
4
This is a bit more difficult than I thought, especially since there really is not that much of a breeze.
5
But there we go, y'all. There we go. I have my I have my cigarette all lit up. Let's go ahead and walk towards the beach. And let's go ahead and officially get to smoking my cigarette on the beach here in Brazil.
6
Now, I've got to make sure I take hits of my cigarette somewhat consistently as otherwise it's going to go out and I don't want to have to go through the experience of lighting it again. So, I'm going to try to make sure I take it somewhat consistently, somewhat routinely. You know what I'm saying?
7
But overall, so far, is it getting me a little bit of a buzz? I got to admit, it is. And I got to admit, the nature around me is absolutely gorgeous. I have spent the last week and a half, almost two weeks here on the island of Santa Katarina in the state of Florianopolis in Brazil. And the nature is gorgeous. The ocean gorgeous.
8
What's surrounding me right now gorgeous? It's been an amazing time, I got to admit.
9
I have thoroughly enjoyed myself and I'm very glad to have made the trip here and to have seen what's going on. And here, here's the beach. Here's the ocean. Let's go down onto it and let's take a little bit of a walk. Just down a bit, I do think.
10
And let's quickly before it gets too dark, let's grab myself a little bit of a thumbnail.
11
had to do it. You know what I'm saying? Had to do it. What can I say? Now, my palheiro, it's smoking a bit faster than honestly I expected, but it is hitting just as hard as I expected. It is hitting very hard. I am a little bit buzzed right now. And I'm going to go ahead and adjust the plastic band on it that keeps everything smoking well and staying together. I just did that. And uh man, I got to admit this is nice. Look at those waves. I don't want to get cl too close to the ocean. Oh man, I'm buzzed. I don't want to get too close to the ocean because uh I don't want to have wet shoes on the plane, but man, it's gorgeous out here. It really is beautiful. Take a look at this view, y'all. Take a look at this view. This is beautiful out here. It's absolutely gorgeous, man. smoking a cigarette on the beach here in Brazil right after sunset. I got to admit this is a solid experience to have and I'm very glad I'm having this experience today and I'm very glad I chose a palheiro for this experience in specific.
12
Now, my smoke, I will acknowledge it did just go out. So, I'm going to go and try to get it re-lit.
13
It's not really wanting to though. So, let me put my camera down.
14
Man, I got to admit this is super nice. It's a little bit chilly out here. There's a little bit of wind, not much.
15
This is really nice. This is just so chill. Smoking a cigarette, hearing the sound of the ocean behind me.
16
Man, oh man. I got to admit, no complaints on my behalf.
17
And the sand all of a sudden got very firm. I don't know if I want to walk down any more than I have because I'm afraid if a big wave comes up, it's going to come all the way up to here and I don't want to get my shoes wet. And I'm thinking the waves are going pretty high up down there. So, I am going to uh turn around, I will acknowledge, and I'm going to walk back the way I came. As mentioned, I want to make sure I don't be getting no wet shoes today.
18
Just going to adjust the band on my palheiro again if I can. Oh man, the wave is coming right up. Oh man, I wasn't paying attention. It tried to get me when I wasn't paying attention.
19
Just had to adjust the band on my palheiro, though.
20
Oh man, this is nice. I'm just going to kind of sit down, honestly. Or not sit down, but like squat down and just enjoy what's going on in front of me. Oh man, I'm getting a little bit buzzed. I had a drink or two before this video. I really enjoyed those drinks and I'm really enjoying this. This is gorgeous.
21
It's beautiful out here. Let's grab a photo.
22
There we go. Had to do it. I'm going to keep walking.
23
Oh, I am so buzzed right now. Holy crap. These palheiros, the strength of them is not to be underestimated. Wow.
24
And it's getting dark out here as well. It's definitely after sunset, that's for sure.
25
And I don't think I have too much of my palheiro left. Think I might stub it out in just a minute or two.
26
But I'm going to smoke it as much as I can cuz I want to get as much nicotine as I can from it. Man, they're just stopping for a second. Wow, it is beautiful out here. I love having a good smoke with some good nature. And this is some good nature. And this certainly is a good smoke.
27
And it's now out. My PO has gone out. I don't think I'm going to try to relight it. It is tempting to do so. It is tempting to try to relight it, but I don't think I will do that.
28
I think I'm going to head back to my Airbnb and I think I'm going to have a great rest of my night. Have I accomplished the goal of this video? Have I smoked a little bit of a cigarette on the beach here in Brazil right after sunset? I would have to say I have I have accomplished the goal of this video.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
