Last Thursday Karisa finally made it to Brasil(yay!) and she was followed a day later by Matt. Friday the three of us went 3 hours north of Brasilia to visit a national park called Chapada dos Vadeiros. It was getting so much hype from my coworkers that I really had nowhere to go but dissapointment. It turns out they were right – it is a completely amazing place. And near the park was the strangest natural area I have ever seen – a place called Valley of the Moon. The Cerrado must be one of the most overlooked and underappreciated areas on earth. It passes under the radar in Brasil because of the Amazon and the beaches. I highly recommend anyone to come visit here.
It’s been a really busy week so I haven’t had time to post anything recently. Here are a few teaser pictures from the most beautiful and weird places from the weekend. Tomorrow Karisa and I are headed to the coast for a few days but I promise to post more when we return!
