During one of my expeditions in South America I visited Brazil where I spent a wonderful couple of months.

I entered the country from Bolivia (another incredible country), already at the cross border of this extraordinary country you can understand many things, the police high-fives you and in their offices, where your documents are checked, samba or bossanova music spread from the radio. Brazilians don't speak, they sing. Brazilians don't walk, they dance.
The hospitality of these people is something beyond all human measurement. They are just incredible, really nice people.

I wandered for a while in the southern part of the country visiting the states of Mato Grosso do Sur, Paraná, Santa Caterina, obviously almost all of them riding off road. I camped in the mountains, crossed some incredibly beautiful hills, and went fishing for food more than once. I was just in love with Brazil, everything was extraordinary, the majestic of nature, the easy way Brazilians live, the music. Brazil was truly a great adventure.

I also did a tap in Florianopolis where I took a nice week of vacation parking my motorbike in the underground garage mod the hotel, where after a couple of days an incredible downpour came that filled the whole city and the lake with water almost completely the garage taking a nice bath to my beloved motorcycle. I had some serious work over the next few days to clean and dry the filters and put it back on its head.

I went to the Iguazù waterfalls, something unforgettable (see the video below).
Brazil is a wonderful country, with an extraordinary nature and above all people beyond any normality. I plan to return there soon to visit the northernmost part, I have many friends waiting for me and I don't want to make them wait too long.

Yes, I feel “saudade”.
