It's spring time in Bahia...

The flowers are blooming and the boys as well.....

Hey... it's finally Springtime in Bahia and with this we've got the sunny and beautiful days back. Hot days that make the nice beaches of Salvador simply crowd with friendly, nice and good-looking people.. People who have worked out their bodies the whole wintertime to "show them off" as beautiful flowers in this Spring that looks already like the summertime.



We clearly can have an idea about what will be the next "high-season", it'll be hot as the weather, by the way, i've already ellected my Mr.Spring this year: that's this nice and friendly guy on the picture. His name's Ruan and if you're lucky, you'll be bumping into him in one of those beaches around here in Salvador.. i know exactly where to meet him up and i could even tell you but can you keep this secret? ;-)

Sisterhood of the Good death

Sisterhood of the Good Death in Cachoeira- Bahia..
For such a long time i've been hearing about this Sisterhood of the Good Death Celebration that takes place in a small town called Cachoeira(1 hour and half away from Salvador). And the funny thing that's I've never had time enough to get there but so many people from abroad(Specially Afro-american as it's a Celebration from Slave descents) were asking things about this celebration or telling me things that they've learnt about it that i couldn't ignore it anymore and simply getting there so that's what i did. When i've got in Cachoeira i've simply regreted for haven't got there before because it was a great atmosphere in that simple but beautiful countryside style, and it's such a beautiful celebration of faith and devotion mixed with music & rhythmns, emotion, religion and memories of our black ancesters who have lived in that envyroment in the past, i was very proud of being a black guy by experience all of that. Someone has written me asking if it was worthwhile for him to get around here only for that celebration and i wasn't sure but after visiting and living that experience i can tell him or anyone that's definitely worthwhile to live it up!!!



*The Sisterhood of the Good Death Celebration is nearly at the same date every year(Aug.15th)and it's a 3 days celebration.
