Good morning sunshine! 5AM on the Amazon River
Oh dear dear Brazil, you have found a place in my heart and there you will stay.
I feel like such an ignorant tourist when I generalise Rio de Janeiro and the Amazon as being the most inspiring, breath-taking special thing I have seen, but that's truely how I feel
I feel homesick and have a longing when I look through my photos of this buzzing country
That month in Brazil went waaay to god damn quick!
I don't think I will forget the freaking cool, quirky people I met. Nor the loud, bustling, smelly cities, NOR the special, untouched jungle. (Just casually, the AMAZON JUNGLE.)
We spent our last 2 weeks in the jungle. The silence was washed out by defening sounds of bugs, frogs, birds and monkies. Trees stretch further than anyone can see, in all directions. The river was warm and murky, god knows what creepy crawleys were at the bottom.
It makes you realise how insignificant humans are, and also makes you angry that humans have destroyed so many beautiful natural forests just like the Amazon.
There were small families sprinkled throughout the dense, unforgiving jungle.
They survive on the bare minimum, but are content all the same.
They wouldn't give a shit about they're hair, the pointless gossipy crap, or the latest trends
I've decided I will marry a native Indian Amazonian, or a half-cast (what they call Cobacolo's) not because they're all ridaculously beautifully fit, but because they work with the land, and understand it.
Well, it's free to dream right?
