Just spent a lovely weekend in one of Brazil's most famous cities; Salvador (Bahia). I had amazing sunsets to appreciate, epic views from my apartment and many chances to people watch, in the Barra district I was staying in.⁠
⁠
This city has a unique vibe and energy and I really hope to come back for longer next time!

I'm coming to the end of my only break this entire year from constant travels, where I spent an entire month in one place.⁠
⁠
I chose Florianópolis, the "magic island", because I had many fond memories from my first time here in 2006. For instance, this spot behind me in the photos is "Lagoa da Conceição" (Conception lagoon), where I spent a ton of time on my first visit, taking windsurfing lessons.⁠
⁠
Over the weekend, I drove all around the island to visit parts that I couldn't on my first visit (I was years away from even getting a driving license then). Going for a brief 15-minute walk when I took these photos, and not even going on the many beautiful beaches and I was still sunburnt!⁠
⁠
Unprotected Irish skin just isn't built for Brazilian paradise beach islands!⁠
⁠
Despite that, I did have a lovely month here!

Last weekend I experienced Oktoberfest... in Brazil!⁠
⁠
The city of Blumenau definitely feels like Germany, with German flags everywhere, the German language sprinkled around, German-style architecture and locals looking more European than in most Brazilian places.⁠
⁠
In Germany, Oktoberfest is a whole month earlier, but it works in actual October in Brazil because of the warmer climate. You get into the event at half price if you are wearing traditional Dirndl and Lederhosen. It's funny because staff would more likely be in plain clothing, which is the reverse of what you expect to see in Bavaria.⁠
⁠
It's grown to be so popular that it's the world's second largest Oktoberfest after Munich!

Definitely enjoying having a temporary base, and as you can see my office has a wonderful view of where the "magic island" of Florianópolis connects to the mainland of the rest of Brazil.⁠
⁠
I am thinking of this as a "base", since I'm taking the chance to explore nearby areas too with day trips and overnight/weekend stays with just my small backpack.⁠
⁠
But what a home to come back to! Florianópolis is an island paradise with loads of great beaches, but I like being in the city this time with plenty nearby and close to the action, as well as having quick access to the bridges to explore the rest of the state!

After roughing it for quite a lot of this year, sl

After roughing it for quite a lot of this year, sleeping on boats, sleeping in barely-reclined seats on so many buses, finding very basic accommodation in cities not used to visitors, and trying to save money in more visited cities, I decided to treat myself this week!⁠
⁠
I found a nice place with an ocean view and a hammock where I can read. Cambuco, not too far from Fortaleza, is famous for its kitesurfing, so I took a bunch of lessons in a nearby lagoon and made some great progress!⁠
⁠
But it was also a bit exhausting at times, so I came back to my ocean-view hammock after classes, to read while listening to the waves crash. As you can see, I own prism glasses, that let me lay completely flat and not have to lift my head at all, to read in full comfort with the beach still in view.⁠
⁠
Normally, this nomad's life is quite chaotic, so I'm glad I took it nice and easy this week, here in my last stop before going to the south of Brazil for the next month!

Ah, Jericoacoara! One of my favourite places in the world!⁠
⁠
2 years ago, this was one of my first post-pandemic destinations as a nomad again. It was definitely the right choice, since it's far removed from society with sand-covered roads and is only accessible by 4x4 over sand dunes.⁠
⁠
This time, instead of a whole month, I was just here for a week. But what a week! I relaxed, enjoyed the amazing views, ate amazingly, and got daily windsurfing lessons (hence my black sun-protected water outfit)⁠
⁠
With my visit-every-state-of-Brazil project almost wrapped up, I decided to use my remaining 3 months in Brazil wisely by spending time in my top favourite places again, and that had to include "Jeri"!⁠
