Best cities to visit in Brazil 2020

By
If you are planning to travel to Brazil, you should consider visiting the Northeast region of the
country. You will always find beaches and sunshine, great food, fun activities, and welcoming
people. I have visited the following cities during different times, Porto de Galinhas for a day,
Salvador for a week, and Natal for two weeks. You can easily enjoy the best attractions in each
city throughout a week, so I would recommend planning a trip of one week for each of them.
This article will help you understand why you should visit them overall.

Porto de Galinhas - PE

It is a famous tourist attraction in the state of Pernambuco because of its beautiful beach with
clear water. People can easily see colorful fishes and this beach is a great place for diving which
helps to see beautiful corals as well. The village has a wonderful view with many coconut trees,
several stores for clothing and gift shops with handicrafts, great restaurants, and a sculpture of a
chicken where people can take pictures (galinha means chicken in Portuguese). There is also a
sculpture of the name Porto de Galinhas where many people take good pictures.

Salvador - BA

Salvador is the capital of Bahia, and it’s famous for Pelourinho. This word means pillory and
unfortunately, was the place where slaves were flogged. The city has a beautiful European
architecture that has remained the same over centuries. Also, I went to Pelourinho because it is
where Michael Jackson recorded part of his video, “They don’t care about us.” I visited the
building he showed up in the video and talked with the owner of the place, where now has a
store selling Michael Jackson items. His name is Carlos, and he will tell you everything about
when MJ went to Salvador in 1996. Another attraction is the Lacerda Elevator, which is a public
elevator connecting the lower city to the upper city with a breathtaking view of the bay.

Natal - RN

Natal is the capital of Rio Grande do Norte; it is a great place for people who enjoy surfing, the sun, and beaches. The city offers several activities beyond swimming, such as surfing, fishing, kayaking, and jet-skiing. For adventurous people, it is fun to speed on a sand buggy through sand dunes. But if you want to appreciate the views, you better take a slow ride on a camel instead. For example, a large park city in Natal to visit is Parque das Dunas with over one thousand hectares made of forest and sand. Also, the beaches and lakes are a great attraction to have fun or just enjoy a relaxing time while eating and playing with fishes when tables and chairs are inside the lakes, and the water is up to your knees.

4 Essential Travel Items

By
4 Essential Travel Items      Hello everyone! If you are planning to travel any time soon, you should consider buying these four items for your trip because they will be really helpful. These items will make your life easier in a way that you don’t need others taking your pictures, don’t need to be worried about low your phone battery is or losing something on your trip, or having your clothes always fresh.  Selfie stick & Tripod      I got this self-stick/tripod on Amazon, and it was a great purchase before my trip to LA. It comes with a remote that connects to the phone, and I did not have to worry about asking people to take my pictures. It is 40 inches extendable, so I thought the height was good enough for my pictures. The remote worked well, and I had no problems being at a certain distance from my phone, they kept connected, and the remote was charged for a long time. These are some of the pictures I took with the tripod version: You can buy this item here: https://a

Museums in Hollywood

By
            If you are planning to travel to Hollywood, you should visit the following museums as part of your trip. They are located close to each other, in my experience, I was able to visit all three on the same day. I would recommend to visit one museum per day, or two in a day, just to enjoy more and have a relaxing experience and appreciate all the art pieces exposed. Madame Tussauds Hollywood Address: 6933 Hollywood Blvd, Hollywood, CA 90028             Madame Tussauds is located on Hollywood Blvd and the museum has three floors. People usually spend one to two hours enjoying this attraction. When visiting the website, you can see there are two packages: a standard ticket and the ultimate experience.

Eight Hours in Orlando

By
It was July 2017 when I bought my tickets to visit my family in Brazil during the winter break. My classes would be done in the first week of December, so I wanted to buy the tickets at a reasonable price as soon as possible. I would have a layover of eight hours in Florida, but I didn't pay attention to the airport, so I thought it was Miami since I've been there all the time between my flights from Brazil to Minnesota and vice versa. At the end of November, I wanted to check my layovers to let my mom know about everything, and I realized I was actually going to Orlando. So I searched how far would be the airport from Disney World, and it would range from 20 to 25 minutes. I realized I had my perfect chance to get to see Disney World, and after talking to my mom about it, she was afraid I would not have enough time to enjoy the park and catch my flight, but I convinced her and bought my ticket online.
