Hoohooohooo it's end of November and it's around 32° celsius hot with a humidity of 80% during the day in Jericoacoara. Jeri is only accessible by 4wheel drive or the Jardineira bus a 4wheel drive that reminds me to the Unimog a swiss military vehicle.

We left our car in Jioca and enjoyed the one hour drive by the Jardineira bus. We arrived well shaken and even our kiteboards had to pay for the honour to be transported in this bus.

Like Canoa Quebrada Jeri was owned by Hippies in the 70s and even today it's a peaceful place with around 250 nice pousadas and restaurants.

Julien a friend which I know from the IKO teacher course gave us the opportunity to live for little money in the extravagant „Casa da Gwen“ a house that belongs to a french owner. At the moment we speak more frenglish (french-english) than portugues since we live together with Julien, Pierre, Selina and Benôit.

Julien and Pierre are crazy about windsurfing and Selina and Benôit both are kitesurfers. In the evening most of the time we cook something nice together or enjoy an incredible bbq with fresh fish.

Despite the fact that Brasil is a beautiful country with warm water Sabrina and me realize that we fell deeply in love with South Africa especially Cape Town. We are missing the big waves and the perfect wind without having the impression that the place is overcrowded. But it's complain about the price of champagne since we have the pleasure to stay at the most beautiful places and most of you guys have to sit in the office and maybe starring at a boring computer :-)
