ILHA DO MEL and the happiness of Brazil
After being in Rosario and Cordoba, where the protagonist of the trip was the music, I returned to Buenos Aires to catch a flight and "make a leap" in Curitiba in Brazil in the state of Parana in the south.
I visited a friend who has decided to celebrate her birthday at the "ILHA DO MEL" (the name of a program) to drive an hour and half hour by boat from Curitiba. The island is lovely and come here out of season can fully enjoy the scenery without too many tourists at his feet properly and relax on the beaches of white sand or lying in the numerous hammocks that dot the island of posadas.
Considering that summer is gone long ago and for the rest of the year usually rains a lot, I must say I was very lucky to find the good old days of strong sun and blue sky incredibilmete. The island is a true paradise on earth: for granparte of its surface (2700 ha) is covered by dense forests within which you can meet the various animals, rare type of parrot. the whole ecological reserve green part is a very suggestive.
The posadas constructed of wood that give hospitality to visitors, are what most in need of a body under stress from work or any other form of stress. Immersed in the green you would, apart from one another full of temptations and vices.
A la Ilha du Mel the biggest problem to be solved is if sciegliere spend the day at the beach or among the "walls of the house. What struck me most are the details of Posadas and 'exaggeration for the cult of lust ": nothing is left to chance, wherever mattresses, sofas, hammocks, sofas. Small living outdoors in every corner with a series of objects that lead the mind even more distant. The posadas have breakfast in the morning, with many fruits esotoci and energizing. For lunch and dinner there are several restaurants where the best dishes are of course fish. Fresh and cheap.
Sadly the island does not offer much musically. But just move the boat to another island chima Guaraqueçaba fantastic to hear the fascinating Fandango: see www.ilcamminodellamusica.it.
