South America Travel Guide

My first ever experience in South America was a trip for work to Brazil, where I traveled to São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. My first time in a tropical climate and my first time drinking coconut water straight from a coconut!

Besides being a gorgeous natural destination, Brazil has a rich culture and friendly people. I look forward to returning to South America to experience more countries.
