Salvador is the capital of the Northeastern Brazilian state of Bahia is also knows also known as Brazil's capital of happiness ...

...due to its easygoing population and countless popular outdoor parties, including its street carnival.

3 hours by boat you can reach MORRO DE SAO PAULO which is one of 5 villages of the island Tinharé.

What I love about it is that Cars are forbidden on Morro de São Paulo. The only method of motorized transportation on the island is by tractor!

Its divided in First, Second, Third beach - Second being my favorite!

One of the most authentic Brazilian beach villages with typical Brazilian Asai, Caipirinah and Capoeira dancers on the beach.

You can Wine & Dine in Havaianas never leaving the beach.

There are some great posadas there including this one :-)

the place has kept its charm and it is still relatively untouched, with a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

And you cannot miss famous and the only FOAM PARTY on Saturday night!

Not without a reason Campos are called Switzerland of Brazil....it does not feel like Brazil at all...

Buildings are mostly German , Swiss or Italian inspired.

Stores are full of winter clothes...

...and restaurants of European dishes...from Fondue to German Wurst!

In winter its full as it is one of the best-loved mountain destinations in Brazil.

Campos do Jordão has become synonymous with winter travel in São Paulo, especially to São Paulo city residents, who are just 167 kilometers away.

Amazonia - one of the Wonders of the World where you will discover the secrets of the vast Amazon Rainforest , stretching over 2.5 million square miles.

We flew to Manaus and from there mostly by boat arrived deep in the forrest and started the trip with 2 dats CAMPING!

The Amazon represents over half of the planet's remaining rainforests , and it comprises the largest and most species-rich tract of tropical rainforest in the world.

This region includes territory belonging to nine nations. The majority of the forest is contained within Brazil - 60%.

Scientists now believe the canopy may house half the world's species.

The place that was our base in the forrest had actually Polish flag!

Journey Into Amazonia features the swollen rivers, flooded forests and dense canopy of the vast rain forest recognized as one of Earth's natural wonders.

For four months, the Amazon is hit by torrential rain, yet even some of the highest rainfall on Earth does not alone explain the 30 to 45 foot upsurge in the water level.

The mountains' (Andes) seasonal snowmelt creates a force 12 times more powerful than the Mississsippi. Each second, seven million cubic feet cascade from its slopes.

We spent hours on the small boat manouvering between the trees.

SLOTH who sleeps about 18 h a day is also called Lazy Animal. Lazyness is mostly caused by the sloth's very low body temperature.

Victoria Regia, can measure 6 feet in diameter and apparently can support up to 3 men!

The biggest tree and the smalles crocodile - Caiman.

Despite Piranhias reputation some 20 species of the fish in the Amazon, most are vegetarian, which explains why piranha are able to co-exist with other fish species.

Finishing, preparing and cooking the Piranhas!!!

Final effect - Piranha soup. Followed by a desert.

Beach mobile bars...you can get whatever drink you can think of!
