Rio and beyond



photos from Leçois/Chapada Diamantinha and the awesome attire that I sported there :)

That was last weekend and now I'm here in Rio: a beautiful city and home to many beautiful people. I am pooped. I feel over-stimulated with city life, I miss Salvador and I just feel exhausted in general. I'm planning a beach get-away for the last few days here and I hope that will leave me ready to return a little less spent. It is a very beautiful city, and where we (Leo and I) are staying, in Botafogo, it feels safe and is convenient in general so that is good. We have just been doing a lot of walking around, continuing to take advantage of the mini-street parties everywhere and just taking life slowly in general. Last night we went out in Lapa and actually ended up at a salsa club which was fun. I must remember these ultra-relaxed moments once I'm back and in the height of the semester again. 
   I will be home on Friday and, possibly, might be ready for counting those days. If I were still in Salvador it may be a different story but, aqui estou :)

You're right, it does look like Yuba. That must have been awesome to be there. I now how you're feeling about leaving, I remember last summer. But I know you'll back and never forget.
