 The best vacations in Brazil


The most curious thing about these vacations is that they were a little before the 2010 earthquake. However, I remember perfectly how much fun I had during those weeks.

My aunt, my cousin and I went to the Brazilian falls, on an overland trip. We had different stops through Argentina and Paraguay, places where we stayed and that I was able to visit during the day and at night.

The tour included the visit of different tourist places, the main and most important being the Iguazu Falls.

When we arrived we had to walk through the vegetation while it was raining and it was very hot, so we were completely soaked, which made us laugh.

Then, we got on the boat to feel from the closest, the fall of the water, getting wet again. I'm sure it was the most fun of all.

Tired of our trip, we arrived at the hotel and had a delicious dinner, while we attended a show of traditional dances: capoeira and carnival dancers. The music was spectacular.

The city that I would like to visit



The city that I would like to visit is Rio de Janeiro. I have always been very curious to know what the favelas are like, what the shopping center is like, the beaches, the people who live there.

Since I was a child, I have watched Brazilian soap operas and it attracts my attention, especially neighborhood life. I sense that there is more life in community, something alien to what I have had to live personally.

The particularity that Brazil has is undoubtedly its identity so unique and different from the rest of Latin America, starting with its language: Portuguese. I have tried to get closer to the language through the songs of great artists such as Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil. Some of my favorites.

In that trip that I long for, I would like to visit the Creole neighborhoods, drink beer while they dance and sing to the sound of the samba de roda. Fascinating!

Although I know a part of Brazil, I imagine that it is in Rio de Janeiro where there is a greater concentration of different ways of life of Brazilians.
