The 9pm Brazilian novela Amor à Vida ended yesterday after 221 episodes, being one of the longest Brazilian novelas that were aired in recent years. Its predecessors in the same timeslot ‘Salve Jorge’ and ‘Avenida Brasil’ had each 179 episodes.

Even though the last few months of the novela were exhaustive to watch because of the repeated/crazy scenes and storylines, the last episode was amazing overall. Although some of the scenes reminded previous endings of telenovelas, many of the scenes in this one were innovative and very refreshing to watch. So let’s begin this recap…

Many of our favorite Brazilian actors attended the Lollapalooza festival, one of the world’s best music festivals, which took place in São Paulo’s Jockey Club from March 29^th to March 31^st, and where they could enjoy the music of such bands like Pearl Jam, The Killers and Planet Hemp.
