Pathernon Sao Paulo The World

... Sau Paulo´ is not really set up for tourists... We made it to a market in a slightly rough area but the meal I had was nice. Then back on the bus and for the last 4 hours had to sit as part of a young family gathering. Which I enjoyed even more when the youngest child started vomitting...

Still now in Paraty and it is beaches and hot weather all the way...

Everybody told me "why are you going to Sao Paolo, there is nothing to see" but it is wrong. Thanks to Clarissa I have had such a great time, met lovely people, ate yummy brazilian food and saw beautiful places. The city has a very european flair and its trendy.

... checked into our hostel we decided to be socialable and joined the hostel next door for happy hour beers before heading into the old town for some capirinhas and dancing till the wee hours!
The next was spent exploring the old town and buying yet more ethnic tat. Dinner was an al fresco affair on one of the main shopping streets. Unsurprisingly we all opted to the local catch. On our last morning we procured a fisherman and his boat to take us on a private 2 hour tour of some of the ...

Po 1.00 w nocy dolecialam do Santiago gdzie czekali na mnie Chila i Antonio rowniez zmeczeni oczekiwaniem na wiesci odemnie.

... a wonderful area in Chicago-style, devastated by trash, beggars and junkies – which reminded me of the rival city.

Well, I did really like the fact that Rio has many natural settings including the powder sand beaches, but I really, really disliked the fact that one has to watch out for every single step. It might be exaggerated that Rio is very dangerous as nothing happened to us – thanks God – even tough we disobeyed almost every ...

... the most expensive ones that have seats that fold into beds and have train-like compartments. Those cost almost as much as a cheap flight. At Sao Paulo's massive Tiete bus station, Dorival and Arthur met me at about 7:30. I was literally calling his cell and was about to push the last digit at the phone when Dorival saw me and introduced himself. As many of you know, Cica stayed with our family in Decatur 29 years earlier and I was looking forward to catching up on ...

Amidst the choking smog of this sprawling metropolis, we have found an oasis. Unde4r the monstrous, dull conrete flyovers-cum-carparks, we have found an oasis. Away from the crumbling, rotting rooves of the city's shanty towns that dominate the persistent, grey landscape, we have found an oasis. Oasis' are wonderful things - they allow one to recharge faded batteries, mend those small cuts and tend to sore throats that ...

... s jakou sem do mesta prijela, dokonce dojedu na nejakou vzdalenejsi stanici kde listek stoji jeste vic nez z letiste do mesta :) Navic na nej uz nemam tu mistni menu kterou sem nezvladla ani vyslovit, natoz napsat, pac pri peclivem pocitani kolik vymenit sem nepocitala s tak usilovnym poznavanim metra.

... I think in disbelief of the question!) and replied, "Öh, ya, many times!" A lump grew in my throat when he explained that between the ages of 13 and 16, he was mugged on a daily basis! "They would take my shoes, my backpack, my pen case..." he explained. "Your SHOES??!!" I was thinking. What kind of a place am I going to anyway?? We were telling him where in the city we were planning to spend our one day and he said he would never go there ...
