Globally educated. World travel advocate. One of the more valuable things I was taught in Japan, a saying they have to convey the spirit of caring. That one should not miss an opportunity, for it will never occur again. One chance, one encounter. 'Ichigo Ichie.' Embrace. Explore. Immerse. Eat. Create. Love. Appreciate. 一期一会. |
Rio’s most talented work in the street. Perhaps ‘a cidade artistica’ is better suited.
The hills are alive…or make that the stairs of Lapa. What beauty!
Santa Teresa: Maybe Rio’s hidden gem?
Urban playground or scenery better suited for Richard Kipling’s classic novel?
With so much lush greenery surrounding the city, it’s honestly hard to tell. Either way, Rio beams with energy as only its enomatic soul only could.
The iconic landmarks ‘Cristo Redentor’ and ‘Pão de Açúcar’ are surreal when your eyes make first contact, and the hype is justly deserved.
Whomever coined Rio ‘A Cidade Maravilhosa’ wasn’t at all lying.
Glorious, indeed!
Salvador, in its own uniquely awkward and unwholesome way, is a gorgeous city. An oxymoron if there ever was one.
Energy flows through every inch of her streets and squares.
The poorest of neighborhoods still sparkle with grit and flavor, and that same liveliness represents its people just the same if not more. Baianas represent love and life. Struggle and toughness.
You’d be a fool to think this city it’s an easy fit getting acclimated to the capital of Bahia. However an open mind and a willingness to embrace all of the unique qualities (while being well aware of the obvious negatives) opens the door for an amazing experience and the chance to get to know Brasil in the flesh.
Salvador, Bahia. The senses are pulled in every direction. What a fascinating first impression. Interesting city to say the least.
Maceió.
Maceió, first impressions: South Beach & Ocean Avenue with a ton of nice beach restaurants. Muito bom!
Maragogi, a segunda de minha cidades de praia.
Porto de Galinhas: A boa vida.
