WELCOME TO RIO!

I love this city, every random little part. I even loved when I accidently ordered penises instead of bread at the bakery.

I love it so much that I'm now writing about it on a blog called Rachel's Rantings in Rio: http://rachel-oddsandends.blogspot.com/

Not only this, I am now in a contest! If you are feeling voting please head over to this link: http://www.circleofmoms.com/blogger/rachel-s-rantings-rio

Latest adventures:

We're pretty much living the sweet life in Rio at this point. We have 2 small boys who keep us busy. I will be updating this page with tips for parents soon!

So I've just started my trek around the world and have already fallen in love with a place that I plan to callvhome. Rio de Janeiro turned out to be someplace that fit me surprisingly well. The other place I could live (if not Rio) is Barcelona. These are my two favorite cities thus far. Places to discover and search (in the order of desire, either country or city):

Chile
Guyana
Cinque Terre (all five cities)
Russia (first and foremost, St. Petersburg)
Brussels
Turkey
Czech Republic
Romania
Cuba
The French country-side
India
Nicaragua
Madagascar
Cape Verde
South Africa
Thailand
China
Japan
Morocco
New Zealand
Greece
Australia
The rest of Italy
Argentina
Peru

(But I think we all know I'd go just about anywhere once :-)

Shalom, don't let Luka slow your traveling down, rather use Luka as an excuse to do MORE travel to show him the world. Martin
