Six years ago, the idea of setting our sights Brazil was being considered and we went to check it out. Carol found three very different places for us to try, Rio De Janeiro, the island of Florianopolis, and and an interior town close to a national park called Praia Grande. The picture is from Praia Grande. We checked out the city life, the salt life, and the rural life. We appreciated the differences but were taken by the similarities. The churrasco, street art, stray dogs, motorcycles and make shift soccer fields were shared across the places we visited. Maybe it was because we were able to triangulate the three different perspectives, but it seems like we were able to get a taste of Brazilian culture on that trip. We opted for the salt life and we are grateful everyday for this opportunity to soak it in.
