Swimming with Piranhas.. Pantanal, Brazil
... in Brazil by chance your "old" friends, with whom you hiked two months ago somewhere in the south in Patagonia. It then comes immediately volley of questions, where we have been, where we're going, what we experienced, etc, etc. The vast majority of tourists that we keep meeting here every day wherever we go are mostly Australians (can´t believe if there is anybody left in Australia:-))), then Americans, Israelis, New Zealanders, Dutch, Germans, French and Belgians. ...
