We ll, we spent 5 days in Rio - it was pretty cool. as i~ve written on a few postcards, itīs easy to see why its often called the most beautifu l c ity in the world! about 5 or 6 beautiful bays with long stretches of sandy beach where all the beautiful people play. i dunno if it~s a volcanic region, because there are also a lot of really dramati...

Just when we thought Carnaval was over, we woke up Sunday to blairing music outside our street. It was 10am. I squinted outside the window and to my amazement, Atlantic Ave. was filled iwth thousands of people in a block party. There were two trucks with five gyrating women dancing on them dressed in skimpy Carnaval bikini's, a band, singers and...

Iīve been in Rio for a week now and have one night left...I canīt believe I am flying home tomorrow!! I have been going out practically every night here, so physically speaking I am very much looking forward to getting out of dorms (triple bunks at Ipanema Beach house) and actually getting some sleep in my own bed. I am of course really excited ...

i konacno, za kraj putovanja stizem u Rio. Ovde je u toku rat izmedju lokalnih bandi i policije. Linha vermelha, put koji spaja aerodrom sa gradom je vise puta napadan u poslednje vreme, cak je i auto ministarke policije opljacka na ovom potezu. Sad je tu milicija na svakoj razlegnici. Kao da sam dosao u Bagdad, jebote. SStizem umoran ali subota...

this parade defines Carnaval. like nothing we have ever seen before and probably will never see anything with so much detail, so much work, so much creativity going into an hour's entertainment. there were not one, not two, but SEVEN individual samba schools, each having their own parade, each having at least an hour in the sambodrome (sambodrom...

well, the introduction to rio in my guidebook says "locals say - god made the world in 6 days. the 7th he devoted to rio". they might just be right. i've been here for just over a week. i have seen so little of the city. what i have seen - beaches, parties, people - has been amazing. i am here with cass now and we will be travelling together on ...

So we arrived here in Rio on the 2nd February after a long and delayed flight via Madrid! The weather is beautiful, 35 degrees and blue skies, a bit of a change from the freezing temperatures we left behind in London! Rio has to be one of my favoutite cities in the world, set amongst a huge mountain range, thick with forest and dropping down the...

Immediately after exiting the customs area, I tried to wait for the information desk so we could find out how to get to Buzios. We ended up taking the push cart with us for our luggage, and the guards tried to tell us to leave them, and then eventually tried to tell Candy in French. We just kept walking and then some guy with an awesome mullet c...
