Top 5 Brazil Trips


This post will talk about the top five most amazing places to visit in Brazil, in my opinion. Of course there's a lot more incredible places, but those are the ones I've chosen. Hope you guys like.




Abismo Anhumas - Bonito

5. Bonito 

Bonito is a perfect place for people who like ecotourism. You should visit Lagoa Misteriosa, Sucuri River, the grotto of Lago Azul, Boca da Onça waterfalls and the Anhumas abism. Those are naturally wonderful places.














Rios da Amazônia

4. The Amazon Forest

Get to know the Amazon forest, take a boat trip through Rio Negro. Getting into the so called "lung of the world" must be quite an experience!


3. "Desert-like Sand Dunes" - Lençois Maranhenses

Lençóis Maranhenses

The "Lençois Maranhenses" are sort of a desert with dunes up to 40 meters high, with oasis inbetween that colors rang from blue to emerald green. How not to be delighted with such a view? 



2. Jalapão Dunes

dunas do Jalapão


It's a set of five preservation areas, that includes a state park with about 34 thousand km². The scenery involves crystal clear watterfalls, natural pools, plateaus and orange dunes up to 40 meters high. Even though, the place is barelly visited. Only 12 thousand people has passed by, since it's inauguration in 2001. It is a expensive trip, but the price is worth it, to go somewhere with so little human intervention.


1. Abrolhos




Abrolhos it's one of the biggest biodiversities of South Atlantic and has the biggest coral reefs of Brazil. It's also chosen by the humpback whales to reproduce and breastfeed. A good ideia is to go scuba diving, considering the rich fauna of the place. The fish approach naturally to you. Abrolhos is in the top of my list, but unfortunatelly it is also on top of the list of places endangered by human intervention.

Hey guys! Do you have no idea of what to do in a rainy day, or in this Halloween month? Today we will show you a top 5 horror movies to terrify your boring day.



THE SHINING - 1980, Stanley Kubrick
This is the best, you can start here. Tells the story of Jack Torrance, who spends the winter in a secluded hotel with his wife and son. After a time alone, they start to have strange visions.





ROSEMARY’S BABY - 1968, Roman Polański
The second and not less tense than the first is Rosemary's baby. A young couple moves into a new apartment, only to be surrounded by peculiar neighbors and occurrences. When the wife becomes mysteriously pregnant, paranoia over the safety of her unborn child begins controlling her life.






THE OMEN - 1976, Richard Donner
An American ambassador learns to his horror that his son is actually the literal Antichrist. Born in the 6th hour of the 6th day of the 6th month, Damien is a sweet little devil.  






PSYCHO - 1960, Alfred Hitchcock
A Phoenix secretary steals $40,000 from her employer's client, goes on the run and checks into a remote motel run by a young man under the domination of his mother.
This movie inspired a new Universal Chanel's serie named Bates Motel. 
You can't let Hitchcock out of this list.




POLTERGEIST- 1982, Tobe Hooper
A family's home is haunted by a host of ghosts.
The most terrifying thing of this film is in the making of. Heather O'Rourke, the Carol Anne, died in the middle of the third movie. That is just one of the lots of strange deaths that happened with the actors who participated of Poltergeist, Poltergeist ll and Poltergeist lll.
