Brazil Travel Diaries: Recife đ§đ·đ
This stunning coastal city in Northeast Brazil reminds me so much of my hometown đïž Boa Viagem Beach 7km of powdery golden sand â but NO swimming! (Local legend: One drunk guy lost his... ahem, "manhood" + a hand while peeing in the sea!) đ€ Dinner Fail Alert! At a "romantic" restaurant (@null), we ordered R$100+ shrimp... â Got 8 sad frozen shrimp sticks đ± â Cue 2 days of home-cooked meals đ đł (Silver lining: Carrefour's beef & salmon = CHEAP & delicious!) đ Porto de Galinhas Day Trip (60km away) SNORKELING PARADISE â but ONLY at low tide! Missed the boat (literally) â reef tours only run Saturdays đ€đ Still magical: Warm water, silk-soft sand #BrazilProblems #BeachLife #Recife
