"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover" - Mark Twain

"Há um tempo em que é preciso abandonar as roupas usadas, que já têm a forma do nosso corpo, e esquecer os nossos caminhos que nos levam sempre aos mesmos lugares... É o tempo da travessia... E se não ousarmos fazê-la teremos ficado, para sempre, à margem de nós mesmos..." Fernando Pessoa

The Sydney’s beaches give the city that special something… the famous aussie laidback style. If you want to enjoy the city as the locals do, beach is the place to be. They are part of the Australian religion and even Christmas is celebrated at the beach with a big aussie-style BBQ with your mates. As a good Brazilian I also enjoyed the beaches during my time in Australia. Soaking up in the sun on the weekends is mandatory. I can definitely say that if “Sun, Sand and Sea” is your type of tourism, Sydney is your destination! And I would even include an extra “S” for Surfing, Sydney beaches present perfect conditions for surfing. What else could you ask for?

Sydney is the city I hold close to my heart, not only because I’ve lived there for almost two years, but also because it is such an amazing place! Sydney is charming, cosmopolitan and astonishing! You realise it's beauty as soon as you arrive at the Circular Quay, overlooking the Sydney Harbour, with the Opera House at one side, the Harbour Bridge at the other side and the city skyline behind. Not even mentioning the exceptional turquoise ocean color. This unique combination makes you realise you are really in Australia! And to get even better, you must drink an Australian sparkling wine at the Opera Bar! Along with dazzling natural assets, Sydney boasts an impressive list of urban attractions, including world-class shopping locations, restaurants, nightclubs and an enviable events calendar. I would say that tourists need ... read more

Not only because we are Brazilians but we can say for sure that Carnaval is the greatest show on earth. It is simply amazing and unforgettable. After waiting one year for the Carnaval again we were ready for the fun!!! Carnaval is an annual celebration in Brazil held 40 days before Easter and marking the start of Lent. Some people say that the year in Brazil starts only after Carnaval and the country stops during it. As good Brazilians, we decided to enjoy this party at the fullest, participating on the parades in Sao Paulo and in Rio de Janeiro. And for sure, it is one lifetime experience. The Carnaval in Sao Paulo may not have Rio’s reputation and popularity, but it has cheaper tickets and less touristy atmosphere. It is one fantastic alternative for people ... read more
