This is some travels that I already went.

With limited days left on our trip in Brazil, we wanted to make the most of it escaping the cities, for some laid back R&R, beaches & cheap beer. We couldn´t have picked a better location than Itacare (ee-tack-ar-rar), about 500kms south of Salvador. It has loads of different beaches nestled among tropical vegetation, and loads of surf beaches too! So you could imagine the town has quite a laid back surfy feel.

Lucybell has a song that says " At the end of thousand ways, always there will be detours ". This time we raise ourselves to a bus and finally we end in Rio!

Ist night in Rio at the Maracana Stadium to see the Flamengos play. Took the funicular train up the mountains or Corcodova to Cristo Redentor. Went on a Favela Tour to the Rocinho Favela on the 2nd March to see the slums of Rio and how the people live. Had a Capoeira and A Samba night in the hostel with the people from the Rocinho Favela. They were able to do the most incredible stuff! Saw sunset on Ipanema and Copacabana that night.
