FLORRRIPA!


So after Porto Alegre I booked it up north to Florianópolis, a big island between Porto Alegre and São Paulo. Its the closest "nice" beach really from Argentina, so it was filled with porteños. Its a lively party town, really fun, awesome beach, small waves for surfing and surrounded by huge green mountains. I think there are like 42 little beaches that make up Florianopolis.
I stayed in the part of town called Barra Lagoa by the coast away from the main part of the city in this great hostel- in like a huge wood cabin on the top of this hill that over looked the main beach and a secluded lagoon. Pretty sweet deal. The picture is the view from my balcony.
Ended up staying with such an amazing group of people and had a blast for a week... that pretty much sums up my trip to Floripa... went to the beach during the day and partied at night....kind of exactly like a week at Spring Break.
Huge gaudy tattoos were pretty much everywhere on the beach, so we all did henna-liquid eyeliner gaudy tattoos of our own. When the henna dried and peeled off, the showers and sheets were covered in dried flakes of black henna, the maid was more than angry.
Hope to catch up with yall soon one day! .. in big Oz, Europe or back in the states :)
