Crab Hostel Brasil Rio de Janeiro

... eachother's backs without looking in each other's eyes. They lead very separate yet inextricably linked lives. Each detesting the other yet supporting each other's habit/business. <br><br>It is the rainy season here still. It's funny how each country has it's own weather vice: the weather each country cannot handle that makes it grind to a halt. <br><br>We also have some very interesting guests where I'm at too. We've complained that it's not ...

... they made us wait in return for more business. After an entire morning wasted and the lack of professionalism, we made a judgement call not to go paragliding. It was expensive, we were ****** off at the company and would not have fun and we would not have had time to go to Sugarloaf. Anyhow, people say it is a great experience in Rio, just don't sign up with Big Fly. <br><br>The upside was they had driven us from Ipanema to a few blocks away from ...

... of a group of 30 Americans we were now in separate dorm rooms instead of what we had booked. Not a great start so I pulled out my immense powers of negotiation and it turned out there was one possible private room left (I should point out that in this instance my powers of negotiation involved looking blankly at a man speaking in either Portuguese or Spanish until he took pity on me/got bored of me!).

... 8221; people walking around and everything in order. It is kind of impressive how close you are to all that poverty and crime which is up there, as a reminder that not everything is so beautiful in Rio de Janeiro. Having said all this about the supposedly secure Rio, I also have to say that, while I was there, two hostels were assaulted by ...

... ropende. De gikk hardest ut mot jentene som hadde vesker. Tok veska til Lene med kamera og lommebok. Jeg hadde to stykker paa meg som rev og slet og slo for aa faa tak i tingene mine. Det var ganske traumatisk, men mest fordi vi var saa uforbredte. Dette er Ipanema, det tryggeste omraadet i Rio! Det gikk veldig fort, og jeg husker bare at jeg sloss, haha , slo han ene i magen med albuen, og ropte NO, NO :) Nesten litt komisk naar jeg tenker paa det naa...Jens, som ikke fikk noen ...
