The trip

I met Cyp (my class mate from UWS) in Paris, where I had a 10h stop over before flying to Sao Paulo. We got so pissed and I easily burned 100€ for beer.



Sao Paulo is huge. Like, massive. 11mio people.

Next day we took the board to drive to Santos and Guaruja. Nice weather and some beautiful smooth breaking waves. And I really was impressed about ocean there. It was so clean, considering that Sao Paulo is 45min drive away and Santos is a big city with a huge industrial habor.



In Maresias we saw some big big waves. The guys were out with jet skis. Really impressive.




The jungle there was beautiful and seemed untouched from human hand. Sometimes it felt like being in the middle of the rain forest.




In Rio de Janeiro, we chilled out at the beach, went surfing at praia de Prainha, visited all the famous places and just enjoyed the atmosphere of this outstanding and wonderful city.

In Brazil

Unreal, this is all I can say. I am here since almost a week now and still don´t really get it. The first two days, I got to know São Paulo a bit better - loved it straight away. There is so much life in the streets and everything seems to be restless and in motion. People are at the streets 24hrs and go out and have a good time.
Then we went to Santos and further to Guarujá. The beaches are soo nice here. And everybody is so chilled out. I got some beautiful waves - had really good/smooth surfs. And the water, so warm.
Pics are gonna come soon.

Happy days.
