After a quiet bad start of the week including getting sick in Rio, then a 32h Bus Drive to Salvador, with a breakdown at 12 in the night and needing to wait 3 hours for a new bus I could enjoy some Brasilian culture. Salvador positively surprised me.a great vibe, capoeira, drumshows and more on the streets. I extended my stay also to see the Bonfirm walk with is the second biggest party in Salvador after Carneval. It was worth staying even though the party afterwards was more getting drunk on the street but that is Brasil. Lots happens on the street.
This is inside the São Francisco church. I loved this as this is supposed to be “the balance of friendship”
I think my parents love this, fun fact the ribbons everyone is paying for are only touristic. The actual spiritual Bonfirm Band has Crists arm length and was worn around the neck
These Capoeira shows are everywhere
I even had to take part in one and got a picture afterwards

I did a drum lesson to figure out I got no talent
The Bonfirm walk - just as New Years everyone dressed in white
Bonfirm Walk with lots of music...
And dancing
I arrived today at Morro de São Paulo where I will enjoy a few relaxing days.
Hang loose
