Talking with the Cheese, Club Med Brazil
June 17, 2008 | Written by Wayfarer Digital
How things change. There was a time when I viewed Club Med as a swinging singles destination, but with the new relaxed atmosphere and kid friendly grounds, Club Med has reinvented itself and continues to expand — not unlike the bug bite I received somewhere in Brazil. It was still the itchiest thing for several days after landing back home on Los Angeles. Of course, this is the small inconvenience of any destination... [Read more]

May 23, 2008 | Written by Wayfarer Digital
Jason Fitzpartick of In The Know Traveler recently visited Club Med Rio das Pedras. On top of enjoying Club Med, we recommend exploring coastal Brazil with great sailing at Costa Verde, day trips to the wonderful colonial town of Paraty and Rio de Janeiro, and hiking in the nearby rain forest — or just stay put and enjoy the grounds at Club Med. Plan to relax, sun, and fun for the entire family. Don’t believe... [Read more]
A Day in Rio Das Pedras, Brazil
April 7, 2008 | Written by Devin Galaudet
The sun beats overhead and Maravilha dances alone on the stage with humidity heavy in the air – typical of a Brazilian summer. He gyrates and glides with style in precision to syncopated Brazilian samba. While he dances, I think of all the great Brazilian music, and that Maravilha is definitely a pro. Then something catches his eye in the distance. Abruptly, Maravilha halts his dance, turns off the music as disgust washes... [Read more]

The Green Coast of Brazil (video podcast)
March 1, 2008 | Written by Wayfarer Digital
This is the first video on my recent trip to Brazil. I grabbed my camera-ready tour guide, Paulo, for a brief interview on the area, an hour and a half outside of Rio de Janeiro, known as Costa Verde. Talk about green! As I am told, there are 365 small islands in the area, “One for each day,” that shelter the bay and keep it calm. It is an ideal place for boating, sightseeing, and relaxing.
And for more... [Read more]
The Costa Verde
February 20, 2008 | Written by Devin Galaudet
The last time I was in a boat, one half the passengers screamed for the lives. The other half thought about their mortality while clenching/using sea-sickness bags — I just kept popping Dramamine.
So when the idea of sailing anywhere sounded like a gamble. Fortunately, visiting Costa Verde in Brazil was a hedged bet.
For folks traveling to Rio de Janeiro, the Green Coast, is beautifully green and calm.... [Read more]

Iguazú Grand Hotel Launches a “Legendary” Honeymoon Package
According to Guarani legend, Iguazú Falls was once just an ordinary river that God, in a furious rage, sliced into hundreds of waterfalls (today there are over 275 falls). He was condemning the forbidden love of the young girl Naipi and her lover Taroba and ultimately sacrificed them both to the river.
God must have... [Read more]
