so I spent two nights in Rio and I have to say that I enjoyed the city more than I did last time.
Santa Teresa was beautiful, very arty and friendly. I stayed in a b&b with two brazilian girls of a similar age to me.
the apartment was beautiful with banana trees with ACUTAL BANANAS growing on them, very cool.
following Flavia´s recommendation I ventured down the hill to Lapa. it was full of people in bars and spilly out into the streets. the music was loud and the atmosphere was vibrant.
I wandered around a bit soaking up the energy before deciding on a relatively quiet bar to sit and eat a pizza. from here I had a great vantage point for watching the street´s hive of activity as well as the samba schools carnival final on the tv.
