After Salvador, John and I took off for the beaches of Bahia. We jumped on a 35 minute flight from Salvador to Porto Seguro. From there, we ended up taking a ferry from Porto Seguro with a Peruvian girl named Aralyn (more on her later) to a quaint little beach town called Arrial D’Ajuda.
Sidenote: I have realized that I am completely inept at pronouncing and remembering the names of any and all Brazilian towns. John has been consistently laughing at me since we got down here.
So, we arrived in the off season. On the 21st it turned to Autumn. Its been dead everywhere we have been in Brazil thus far. On the bright side, its been nice as we have been able to negotiate really good fairs in the hostels/hotels.
In Arrial D’Ajuda, we stayed at a nice hostel with a pool and air conditioning–which is very rare– and we were hanging out with this Peruvian girl that we initially thought was really cool. After a few hours, we learned that she was far from cool. In fact, we nicknamed her the fun vacuum. She vacuumed up every bit of the fun that we had. The problem, was that ¨the Hoover¨ would not go away. She would knock on our door every morning to go to the beach. Furthermore, whenever we would go out with her over the course of about a day and a half she would bitch about how much everything cost.
