true, it has been a while since i came back, but can you imagine how all of the food and drinks stick to my mind, that i need to show them? it was crazy, which had a couple of reasons: my amazing hosts and my enthusiasm… what can i say? i am crazy about trying new (and familiar) stuff, so not a day went by when i didn’t try something new!
of course, i had the feijoada’s numerous times, the abara, the acaraje, the freshest sea food, the most beautiful fresh fruit and yes, although i didn’t take any pictures of them (i wonder why…), caipirinha’s and caipiroska’s!
so let me give a complete picture of what my beautiful hosts prepared for me (uhn… us)… and then i am not even talking about going out for comida…

i met my reina, talking about the beauty of marketing and music, the art of love and literature and our fascination with culture and other countries.
it was meant to be, i think.
but we were in the netherlands. so she already met the cold, the dutch and the water in general. i took almost every opportunity to show her the things that make us dutch to everyone who is not dutch and to everyone who is dutch. and you know what they say: “if it ain’t dutch, it ain’t much!” (and it’s probably warmer, too)…
so after learning about my background, i wanted to learn about hers too… so after having gone to south-korea to lecture, i went to brasil, salvador de bahia, to be exact.
and what an amazing and rich culture. of course, this is one of the places in brasil with the most history, as the portuguese landed just south of it in 1500. so staying with the most amazing hosts, showing me all of the things as if i were a local, i learned so much… about reina and actually also about myself. it is far too much to tell everything, but the pictures tell most of it. but shortly, we checked out salvador of course, some of the beaches north of it, beginning of the linha verde, pelourinho, we went to the beautiful chapada diamantina with it’s beautiful nature, etc. etc.
also we went to buenos aires, but i’ll show that in the next post.
anyway, here are the pictures:
