Current location - Curitiba, Brasil
I'm staying with Luana, a girl I met in a hostel in Iguazu a few years ago, and her two roommates. Practically strangers. They are very nice to have opened their apartment to me considering that. They're also very patient with my portuguese. I barely spoke any in Rio, but here I don't have much choice.
They live right in front of the Jardim Botanico, the place featured on almost every postcard from Curitiba. Beautiful place! The city is very pretty, and a lot calmer than Rio.
Today Ana, one of the roommates, took me to the feira artesanal. It was HUGE! Twice the size of Cordoba's paseo de las artes. And crazy moment - I saw a guy I'd met at a hostel in Peru in 2009! I didn't say hi, because I was kind of in shock, and I wasn't sure he'd recognize me.
The centro histórico, where it takes place, is precious, lots of pretty churches and plazas. And the transporte público is awesome and easy to navigate. If I run out of stuff to do, I can just ride the bus around all day.
