Travelogues Brazil

Welcome, heartfelt welcome to the land of three climatic zones with their respective rainy and dry seasons. Brazil is almost as large as all of Europe combined. In November, a...

The trip to Serra da Canastra took place over six days, divided into two distinct moments: three days on the northern side of the mountain, based in São Roque de Minas, and three...

Here’s a glimpse of my trip to Rio de Janeiro, probably one of the most fascinating cities in the world.

The drive by car from the Caribbean to Salvador was long. We had to take a detour because of a burning car, but we were without internet, Google, and any means of communication....

After saying goodbye to Maragogi, it was clear: next stop, Brazil's Caribbean. Sounds great, right? Well, it wasn't at first. The first beach? Well. More like a cacophony of...

We started with a picnic basket on the Brazilian beach – breakfast under the palm trees, hardly more kitschy. Then into the swimwear and off to the tiny fishing boat that looked...

We rushed directly to the buffet in the morning as if there were no tomorrow. And yes, the buffet was different from yesterday. What an absolute surprise, because one firmly...

So, the jungle adventure in the Amazon was a real 'Wow, they are actually doing this better than we are' experience. Not a single empty soda can in sight – every piece of...

This morning, I casually strolled to the buffet and took in everything that looked like breakfast. Then I ordered an Uber – of course, in Brazilian style (slow but unsteady). We...

Today in Recife, we started the day so relaxed that even sloths would have nodded in respect. While other crazies were already doing gymnastics around six in the morning, we...

Actually – and I emphasize: actually – our flight was supposed to leave at 2:00 AM. That was the naive dream. The pious wish. The romantic illusion we once called a flight...

Arrived. Three hours by bus, one hour by boat. Everything felt longer. On site, we met two Germans, four South Africans, and about 90 percent humidity. The food was surprisingly...

Our Amazon tour starts, so we won't have internet for the next 3 days. Since Lina doesn't like animals and I've picked at least one overnight stay outdoors in a hammock, this...

After we woke up very relaxed this morning and had a leisurely breakfast in our beautiful apartment, we headed into the city. In the city, we looked at the drawings made by some...

Since Linchen was still sleeping, I went to the gym. Later, we drove into the city to Beco de Batman, a very beautiful graffiti neighborhood with many artists. Afterwards, we...

We flew from FOZ to Sao Paulo. We could see the waterfalls from above again, impressive to see which river flows together there. Upon landing in São Paulo, we realized how large...

We have received several messages regarding our health status. Yes, we had a few intolerances, but we are fit and healthy. We do a lot every day. Yesterday we visited the...

happy moment

Unfortunately, the very large landmark turned out to be a flop. Christoph, aka the 30m tall colleague on the rock, is really hard to reach. The train was not bookable, and the...

Hello, hello, today was intentionally quieter. At 8:30 AM we were directly at Sugarloaf so that we could be the first ones on top and avoid the large crowds. We succeeded. It is...

Today we practiced 'arriving'. After our internal clock told us to get up at 5:00 AM, we searched for our way to the ATM after an unsuccessful sleeping pill. Apparently, nothing...

Brake line defective, we already know that. Car wash is necessary too, after more than an hour Bibo looks like new. We haven't had a truck accident so far, and we don't want any...

So the 500 km to the next larger city is just a hop, Brazil is really very large! Salvador was a major hub for African slaves to South America. We cannot recommend leaving the...

Hello everyone, Here we go, our adventure begins! We are back in Rio and have bought our travel companion. He doesn’t have a name yet (we're waiting for your suggestions 😉) but...

When the curtain went up, the sky was unfortunately overcast again with lots of clouds. But we had a great view of the sea and the boats in the marina. The plan to visit the...

The next morning, not only our heads were pounding, but the bass was also pounding through the upper floor. As the weather was supposed to improve around midday, we packed our...

Before breakfast we went for a short walk on the beach and watched the numerous fishermen. During the Brazilian winter months surfing is prohibited and the fishermen can go out...

We had spent four nights in Campeche and checked out of the log cabin late in the morning to spend the next few days in the north of the island. On the way there, we stopped at...

Football was also watched in São Paulo and, in addition to a few games in the lower classes of the Campeonato Paulista, the highlights were clearly the derby between FC São...

After we arrived at the central bus station, my first impression was confirmed, because in the dark and heavily clouded the area around this place didn't seem particularly...
