What is life in Bahia really like?

Okay so I'm writing a book where the characters are in highschool transitioning to college and this is somewhat slice of life. I know this is probably overly asked but i have never been to Brazil in my like, however, I'd really like to visit. Any way, my question is what would every day look like to an average student experiencing school and social activities? How does bullying look like? Any slang used among friends? Is badminton a common sport other than football? General extracurriculars? Are there sports days? Is capoera taught in schools? What are some things you can share about Candomblé?

I know these might be dumb questions but I'm really curious and want to have good representation and want to hear the experiences from everyone here!
