Bridget Bardot's secret hideaway
... lunch ever at a beachside restaurant - of fresh prawns, which came with a salad, two jacket potatoes and a big bowl of rice! They have a strange idea of portion size here in Brazil so its impossible to get a small meal. It was divine though. So, after much more sun (I now have 3 million freckles!) and relaxing I then headed back to Rio for my final stop before heading ...
Buzios, Rio de Janeiro, Carnaval

The scariest moment of my life
... was a reality of the country before moving here. This is also the first incident of its kind in almost 1 year of living here. I am smart...I don't carry a purse unless I have to. I walk around with minimal cash...and when I do...it's hardly ever in my purse. I don't carry my real ID on me (only copies) and my cell phone will now forever be stashed in my bra. LOL. Scary experience, yes...but you know what they say... "What doesn't kill you, only makes you ...
