Amigos do Itacaré - Brasil




Good people: Top pic shows Mestre Jamaica on the left of me, Richard on the right, and some of the other capoeiristas. Together with Rich (from my capoeira group in London) took five portuguese classes (one a day) with profesora Márcia and got a great crash course in the language. Met some great people from other countries - Steve (aka Camarão cause of how burnt he got or 'Irish' cause, yep u guessed it), Liz (from Australia, who was given the nickname 'Risadinha' by Mestre Jamaica which means little laugh), Cole (an actor from Canada), Hana (from Brighton England), Captain Justin (from Canada who organised a legendary braai with chicken garlic and vegetable skewers for the hostel), Andy (Melbourne), and Ben and Shelley (from Perth whose claim to fame is getting held at gun point on Concha beach in Itacaré for 20 Reiais (+-£6) - silly gringos - heh heh). Good times.
