Since becoming Canadoca's mom I have neglected reading a lot of the blogs I normally enjoy. Which means I haven't been passing some of the interesting stuff I find on to you. So here are a few (and some are not so new but that's why!) interesting articles and tips on travelling around Brazil.
Great posts from "Brazil for Insiders" - including:
- Pre Catalan in Rio - Sofitel - which I also recently visited and quite enjoyed.
- A Tiradentes weekend - great looking pousadas.
- A review of Conde Nast's top beaches in Brazil - and why it might be off-base. Here is a more complete list on the same site.
- This post is a must for anyone heading to Salvador, Bahia, as is this one from The Moment blog.
From the "Gringo Times"
- Hiking in Rio - fantastic way to see some of Rio's sights in an active manner!
- Some coverage of Trinidade - a little beach community near Paraty that we visited with my inlaws back in November.
- Or, for a weekend in Rio, check out Markets in Rio in case you are sticking around here... or head to Santa Teresa for the weekend (something I am actually tempted to do on a regular basis since there are so many amazing hotels and dinner spots there!)
From Ben in Rio:
- I don't know where this is but that waterfall waterslide looks like so much fun!
From Expat American Living in Brazil:
Finally, with all these great destinations we need some cheap flights! Apparently Brazil's airline industry is going through some deregulation.
The waterfall slide is Visconde de Mauá and it is an amazing place to visit, especially if you miss the cold. Very natural and unspoilt, great views, some very good food, nice pousadas, peace and quiet. You'll need a big car you don't mind ruining to get there (gravel road only) but it's worth it.
