Semana Santa celebrations
31. maaliskuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ 🌙 17 °C
If you have looked at the map of this trip, you might be wondering why I took the long trip to Ouro Preto, which definitely is not just "on the way". The answer is: because of the holy week. Leaving alone that I didn't want to spend Easter on an overcrowded beach full of drunk and a little intrusive Brazilian machos (just my very prejudicial expectation), I had also read that Ouro Preto was the best place in Brazil this time of the year.
The official Semana Santa agenda, though not even close to including everything that is going on, includes numbers of processions, services, liturgies, orchestrations and other Easter traditions.Lue lisää

Museum day

Well, the title pretty much covers it. It's not allowed to take pictures in the museums, so I'll just leave some more nice views here.

BH Culture
3. huhtikuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ 🌙 22 °C
I'm now in Belo Horizonte, the capital of Minas Gerais. I already got here yesterday afternoon and took advantage of the fact that there are two climbing gyms in close walking distance. After showering I didn't even have time to sit done, but went with a little group to a bar that features rock music and billard.
Today I got out to learn something about the mineiro culture. I walked a lot in between two museums and the central market. Although of course not everything in BH is pretty, I am still surprised that so few people visit it, because there is a lot to do here (much more than for example in São Paulo).Lue lisää

Forró
4. huhtikuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
What Salsa is to Colombians, that is Forró to the Brazilians. Tonight I got to know and try this beautiful dance at the bar A Autentica. I took my time with the first dance, as most people at the party were really good dancers and I knew I would be sticking out. In addition, many couples (and by couple I refer to mostly one-song dancing couples) danced much closer than I would feel comfortable with a stranger.
Already watching the others was fascinating. This dance has an incredible beauty (and in some cases also a lot of emotion) to it. Very slowly I also started accepting dance offers, however telling them that I had no Forró experience and preferred to keep at least some of my personal space. Since (almost) everyone accepted that and it also became clear that they really wouldn't try anything but dancing, I could relax and just enjoy the dance. It is definitely a lot of fun and a big part of Brazilian culture :)Lue lisää

BH's Culinary Highlights
5. huhtikuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
Today I met with João, a friend that I know from my exchange year and that I'd also traveled two days with oh Colombia. We went to a cultural center and to a viewpoint - unfortunately at that moment it started to rain, but we still got a nice picture of BH from above. Most importantly, however, he showed me two awesome places to eat. The probably most typical mineiro dish we had was stuffed pão de queijo. Just DELI!Lue lisää

Rio de Janeiro
6. huhtikuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
I didn't expect to say this, but after only a few hours in Rio I can honestly say that I understand why people are so fascinated by this city. If you tell any Brazilian that you're planning a trip to Rio, the first thing they'll say is: "Make sure to be extremely careful. Go with a local if you can. Rio is very dangerous."
Right after that, however, they'll tell you that they love Rio, and that it still is a 100% worth going. You'll hear about the beauty of the town and people, about how you should try and hide all your valuables or just not bring them at all, about great beaches, restaurants and party, about the imprisonment of the former president, about the abundance of hiking opportunities, about wars in the favelas and homicide. You'll end up wondering if you should maybe change your travel plans in order to avoid Rio, and at the same time wanting to see this place even more.
I am lucky enough to have friends here who would take good care of me, so I decided to go. And I don't regret it: when you lie at Leblon beach, looking at the islands and mountains, you easily forget that there's a chaotic town right behind you.Lue lisää

A little bit of Rio tourism
7. huhtikuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
My first day in Brazil's most famous city had been very quite: after spent the night on the road and due to the fact that Felipe only arrived in the evening and his mother, with whom we are staying, wouldn't let me do much by myself, I only slept and went to the beach.
On the contrary, today was loaded with activity. We tried to go up to Cristo Redentor, but since the sky was rather cloudy and we wouldn't have seen a lot from up there, we decided otherwise. Instead we walked around the botanical garden and had lunch at a famous (and really good) restaurant in Santa Teresa, called Aprazível. After that, we explored this bohemian neighborhood and some of its viewpoints. For the ultimate sunset experience we climbed onto some rocks at Praia do Arpoador, at the end of Ipanema. We also met with Jéssica, a friend from my exchange year in Mexico.
We only had time for a quick shower and dinner with Felipe's mum before we had to leave for a birthday party (at this point a already 3h too late).Lue lisää

Paraty
9. huhtikuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ 🌙 22 °C
Paraty is a small coastal town in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Especially now, considering that it's off season, there's not that much to do.
My day consisted of a breakfast right at the beach, followed by a stroll through the historic center in town and some chilling at the beach. I didn't go into the water - it didn't look too inviting in terms of cleanliness - but there was a stone pier on which I went a little father out. In the evening, a band played pagode in the town square, and a lot of people started to dance Samba.Lue lisää

Surprise hike
10. huhtikuuta 2018, Brasilia ⋅ 🌙 24 °C
I only arrived at Ilha Grande this afternoon and went straight to Praia Preta, a beach I had been recommended in the hostel. When it turned colder and I considered going back, I remembered that there was supposed to be a waterfall close by. I was only wearing flip flops, my bikini and a beach towel, but I didn't expect to be walking more than ten minutes.
Eventually, however, those ten minutes turned into one hour on a rather difficult trail. I usually would have turned around after a short time, but it took a while to get reliable information on how long it would actually take and joined a group of Brazilians.
My feet are killing me right now - I appreciate having bought proper hiking shoes now more than ever - but it was still a unique experience.Lue lisää
