Was looking for the testing info and that was really helpful. Also love the pics and story. Glad you were able to enjoy Brazil for so long.

I am really happy that you are home AND that you got your first vaccination!

It is rubbish that you were not able to taste or see as much of the coast as you were hoping…but it sounds like it gave you enough of a taste that you’ll want to go back when things reopen.

Lastly, please look after yourself. It is always hard to move home after a long time away. I found when I first got back from Japan i had reverse culture shock (which I didn’t really expect, as I was returning to a culture I knew well.) Maybe you’ll avoid that because you are in an exciting new city…but I hope you give yourself time to process it all.

Those colourful buildings just sold methe idea of traveling to Salavdor. I wasn’t aware that it is a capital of Bahia. To my understanding, it is the biggest state?

I can totally relate to it. I spent almost 6 months of quarantine in Colombia and returned back to my home country after one year. I am never going to forget those experiences.

I look forward to hearing about your adventures in Chicago and Arizona!

Chicago is a great place to be and you could probably explore this wonderful city for the next month and not get bored. Branching out to other cities like Milwaukee, Green Bay, Minneapolis etc. could be a bit difficult if you don’t have a car. Summer is close and you will find tons of wonderful places around Lake Michigan.
On my 1st trip to Chicago I bought a bottle of Vitameatavegamin that I still have from the Viacom store which closed more than 20 years ago.
