Rio turned out to be the most progressive city that we visited on our travels. The city highlights the international accomplishments and community growth that is supposedly evident across Brazil. There are remarkable investments in arts and culture as well as police protection, and the community is definitely responding.

It is HOT in Rio!

No really -- it is literally quite hot, with temps climbing over 100 every day, and high humidity, too. Yesterday I saw a thermometer in the shade that said 106. (A bit of internet research confirms that we hit a record high of 110 at some point). And, of course, it´s also Carnaval-hot, too. After talking and planning and …

First days in Brazil

I finally arrived in Brazil. After my 12 hour flight via São Paulo, I reached Rio do Janeiro. The flight was okay. I got a seat by the emergency exit so I could stretch my legs whenever I wanted. Nothing special during the flight. It was during the night so I tried to sleep as much as I can. I met a girl from São Paulo who told I could contact her …

Brazil - Part 2 (Rio de Janeiro)

... had booked for us and their friends Paulo and his girlfriend Flavia to go to an awesome Brazilian restaurant called "Rio Scenarium" in downtown. This place is 3 stories high with bars on each level and live music and shows which run the entire night. To top it off, every item of furniture in this place is antique (with a strong retro vibe though) and so you can just imagine the cool ambience of this place. We had a fantastic evening, ordering all sorts of different Brazilian ...

... time hanging out with Arthur C. Clarke on 2001: A Space Odyssey, working as a foreign correspondent in Rio, and his thirty years of building the aptly named Maze (the stranger part is that it’s the first vertical maze I think I’ve been in). After that we braved the outside world for a bit – interestingly negating to take any form of Portuguese instruction with us; picture menus can at times be your ...

Best view ever!!!

This is a little hostel in the middle of one of the most easy going favelas. We took the double room after a long flight and it was more then worth it. A master bed, including a private bathroom and toillet, a prime view over Rio itself and by night you get to see a jungle of lights! Every morning you get a breakfast (included) excisting out of coffee, cheese and ham, butter, jam, dulce de leche and fresh fruit every day. It's so close to the center that everything you wanna do is easy by foot.
The only downpart is finding this little paradise in the first place.
