Wild South America (Day 10) – Rio de Janeiro ✈️ São Paulo ✈️ Cuiabá

aught a 5 AM flight from Rio to São Paulo, then transferred to Cuiabá—Braz il may be the 5th largest country in the world, but unlike China, domesti in São Paulo, which is super inconvenient. 😅 Today marks my 5th and 6th flights of this trip… with 7 more to go! ✈️ [facepalm I flew to Cuiabá because it’s the gateway to the Pantanal Wetlands. The city has a few high-rises but mostly feels run-do wn, like a small Chinese county town. And oh boy—it’s one of the hottest places in B razil! Just walking 5 minutes outside at noon feels like stepping Today was a rest day. Since no one here speaks English (and we don’t speak P ortuguese/Spanish), we relied on translation apps for everything. The hotel owner recommended a fish restaurant for dinner. 🐟 #Brazil #Cuiab #Travel
