We started in Rio, strolling Copacabana beach, visiting the deprived areas (Favellas), seeing the statue of Christ, watching a Samba show and of course the highlight has got to be being proposed to on the top of Sugar Loaf Mountain. From Rio we travelled to Ilha Grande a paradise island, where we hiked through the forest to amazing desserted beaches. In fact I have spent a large part of the past week on boats and beaches soaking up the sun - you can´t beat it!
