Rio you got us

This city amazed us with its white and clear beaches, its lively neighbourhoods, and its extensive nightlife. During this week here we stayed in Ipanema, and its beach was the perfect choice for relaxing and swimming in the refreshing sea during the day. Besides biking to the botanical garden and along the copacabana beach, we hiked up to the Christ the Redeemer statue. There we got a breathtaking view over the city. We explored the area of Santa Teresa by going up the tiny streets with an old cute yellow tram. We eventually ended up at the famous coloured Selarón stairs. One night we met up with the cute Brazilian couple Flavia and Anderson, which we met in the Amazon. They took us to a live Samba event that used to be the place where the workers went back in the days. After that we went to another street Samba at Pedra do Sal, which is the birthplace of Samba in Rio de Janeiro. This and other great nights of dancing with people from the hostel completed the Rio experience.Baca lagi
