How to get to the Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro…More on my blog, which is no longer blocked! Link in the bio.
Blog: Rio de Janeiro turned out to be better than I thought. At least I wasn’t robbed. The trip has motivated me to update my blog again, link is in the bio! My time in Brazil is coming to an end but I’ll write a few more posts about it.
