Surf Story

The third nation of surfing.
This is the first national sport after soccer – which is not a sport, but a religion…
An impressive breeding-ground of surfing champions. As aerial, surprising and cheerful as the soccer players, Brazilian surfers have excellent skills.
A huge coastline of about 7 400 km, tropical waves of Fernando de Noronha or Natal in the North of the country, famous beaches of Rio, California’s mood in Florianopolis in the South, it is a matter of taste.

Cool or mild waters, reefs, sandy, urban spots… This is a land of contrast where partying and surfing easily work out.
Foresee a trip of several weeks or come back several times (you make a lot of friends and girl friends…) as the distances are huge and you discover astonishing things.

History

A country beyond measure, extreme, Brazil is a land of contrast : brutal materialism against hallucinating mysticism, the fabulous carnival against the daily misery, strong Christian dedication and rituals from the African Gods, huge fortunes against malnutrition, the list could go on an on…
 5 million of people lived in Brazil before the landing of Portuguese in 1549.Portugal sent its first colonists with domestic animals, plants and seeds to settle the permanent colonies where African slaves, sent from Africa, were working. Today, coffee still remains Brazil’s main income.

The small gores from Northeast were reinforced. São Vicente, on the coast of the state of  São Paulo was created in 1532, and Salvador, later chosen to be the seat of the general governor, in 1549.
In 1807 when Napoleon invaded Portugal, the King Dom João VI does not have the choice but to go to Brazil where the Portuguese court settles and wants to create an “European” atmosphere.
The commercial ports’ system lasted long enough to influence Brazil’s basis territorial and political model, and several States forming the Federation have kept their names from that period of time.
You encounter every religion, hundreds of churches and especially much witchcraft.
Later, during Napoleon’s defeat, Portugal, Brazil and Algarve become a united kingdom with Rio as the capital.
Slavery was abolished in 1888 fastening the end of the empire occurring in 1889, following a military coup d’état, hold by the aristocracy power of coffee, and overthrowing the Brazilian empire.
In the mid-1980’s, Brazil goes through an “economic miracle” sustained by most of the loans granted by various international banks.
The economic situation gets better, though it does not ease the Brazilians’ life: 8th global economy, Brazil is a paradox in a country where the wealth distribution is the most unequalled of the world (United Nations’ report -1996), there are always some people left out.However, music, literature, architecture…
Brazil has so many artistic talents.

Geography

From the extensive Amazon Rainforest to the huge waterfalls of Iguaçu, from dryness to the swampy continent of Pantanal, nature is spreading everywhere and takes its rights.
This civilization made of an incredible vitality is building, destroying and lives again with cracks, explosions. Brazil’s geography can be summarized in four large regions:
A long and stretch coastal strip extending from Uruguay’s border to the State of Maranhão, the central vast plateau covering the most part of the Amazon’s southern basin and two great depressions, the Amazon basin and Paraguay’s basin in the Southeast.
The coastal strip spreads out 7 408 km² between the Atlantic Ocean and the mountainous chains dividing itself from the central plateau.
The central plateau covers a part of each state of Brazil. It is sprinkled by several little mountainous chains culminating in Minas Gerais.
1 300 km wide in the West, the Amazon basin becomes narrow in the East.
Its 6 275 km and its 110 affluents make Rio Amazonas (the Amazon) one of the most important river of the globe, depicting on its own, 20% of the soft water reserve of the world.
