A month in Rio

Blown Away by Brazil




I've been to Brazil a few times and each time gets better than the last. Out of all of South America, Brazil is by far my favourite! 
It is known by many for its famous beaches (Copacabana and Ipanema), the amazing football (something I don't know that much about) and the sightseeing (Corcovado statue, Sugarloaf mountain etc). Don't get me wrong all of these aspects of Brazil are great but for me the real beauties of Brazil are its people and their relaxed and chilled way of life. 



  A classic Brazilian delicacy to try is the Caiparinha, a classic Brazilian cocktail made from cachaca, lime and sugar. They're ridiculously refreshing in the South American heat but drink one too many and you may look like this! (Above)
 We found a bat chilling on one of our suitcases...random. Scary or hilarious?
A few Brazilian friends of mine picked me up on their motorbikes and we drove to a waterfall in Guapiacu, just outside of Rio and just spent the day chilling and bronzing.
