Our characters are getting ready to go to the beach, so they start making a list of items needed. In this European Portuguese lesson, we introduce a bunch of food vocabulary as well as some useful colloquialisms. There’s more to come next week.

How do you say “let’s raid o frigorífico?” in Portuguese?! Anyway, obrigadhino e fica para proxima!
