Day 11 we supposed to explore Pétropolis city however after checking in our hotel,which turned out to be a resort with swimming pools, tennis court, Jacuzzi, massage tables, restaurant, sauna, etc.we decided just to relax there and have a cup of afternoon tea after a swimming, sunbathing and playing tennis. moreover the place had a magnificent view to mountains as itself were on mountain top. Just WoW.

After leaving Diamantina and unfortunately, not becoming ridiculously rich by finding diamonds, we changed cities.
As yesterday was Latvia’ s Independence Day then we had a special breakfast – almost,almost Latvian style (had also some Laima sweets) and we made 2 typical Latvian pigtails.

greetings from the nicest and cheapest hotel ever 🙂 we are in this small valley called – Diamantina (click here) and part of Brazil’ s Lost World. Diamantina was a center of diamond mining in the 18th and 19th centuries. (so today we are going for DIAMOND searching and washing if the weather will allow, as it is raining cats and dogs time to time). o today – Biribiri time.
Here comes the pictures from last days. ENJOY!
Day 5 and 6. (still extremely excited and amazed of the diversity of the country and lands, views and nature. Read More

Again woke up at 6:30 am, as you just can’ t sleep longer – the sun is up and shining and even the sleeping mask is not saving you from the daylight.
the sun rises here around 4am, so seems that the day is already in half, as it is getting dark at 5pm, already :O so the early birds are enjoying the day longer.

Welcome to Recife – Brazil and welcome to the notes from a road. Here starts our road trip of 6000km across Brazil from Recife to Porto Alegre which we will across in a car. Me, my friend Lina, my friend Paolo and his mum in a big Volvo.
This will be notes from the road, so be prepared.
1st day: o far – so good.
We have happily changed 3 planes, crossed Atlantic ocean, managed to get through all the security checks (which were a LOT), combined – English, Italian,Spanish and poor Portuguese skills to be understood, survived a night in airport of Salvador and finally arrived in Recife.
Indeed, I can definitely tell you that every traveler must have a pal like this:

and it is so adorable inside'(sorry, available just in Italian, but still amazing and good way to pick up some Italian ).
it’s divided by sections: Check Lists of different vacations, My city – what see, do, etc, New Friends made in journey, Music/Movies/books on the road, appointments, visual dictionary, wish list – planner (how much money you will need, a map, city, time zone, visual dictionary, etc.etc.)
must say organized perfectly and easy to flip through the pages afterwards (when you are old, or just finish the diary 🙂 )
to sup up – AWESOME! can’t wait for my next trip!
(actually won’t need to wait for much longer – tomorrow off to London for Brand Licensing Show! (and it goes STRAIGHT to my new friend! ^ ^
