Jericoacoara- Ce-Brazil










































Did i ever talk to u about Jericoacoara???My favourite place in Brasil.

Jeri is a small village situated in the north-east part of Brasil, in the state of Ceara'.
It was, up to 15 yrs ago, just a fishing village (unfortunately i haven't seen it like that)....now it developed a lot; it is still a community, even though it is now very famous for windsurfing, among americans and europeans Yes, the wind is just wayyyyy too strong!

The place has a special energy. The roads are made of sand! No cement to walk on.
Animals like cows, dunkies, sheeps, dogs just walk around freely...it is common to run into a big cow in a small little street and not have enough room for both of us (they are huge...maybe tame, but i tell you...kinda of scary).

The village is tiny...surrounded by dunes of sand and of course the ocean...and nothing else.
It is just wonderful to be in contact with nature and to live such a simple life.
Native people don't have much but they are soooo much happier than us! They have such a innocent and pure attitude towards life; qualities that are very hard to find in the western countries.

In Jeri, people live in perfect balance with nature.
