What drives most of us to explore the world is the desire for experiences beyond our own little lives. And Rio de Janeiro, considered one of the most naturally beautiful cities in the world, definitely has a lot to offer. There are countless sights to see, beaches to explore, cultural events to attend, and people to meet.
I left for no longer than a month, yet the moment I found myself walking through its streets again, I was a bit surprised by how much Rio changed since. The city almost felt calmer. Or maybe it was just me, slightly beginning to feel more at home. But a home where I still have so much to discover. Full of wonders, and the most gorgeous and colourful scenery you can ever imagine to top it off. It makes me want to hold my breath every time I go wandering around the city with the camera.
Someone should have warned me that I would fall in love with Rio and lose my will to leave.
