|
|
| Hello! I’m Thiago Lorena, Ambassador Journey Coordinator of Journey #20388: Bumba-Meu-Boi Festival and Lençois Maranhenses with FF São Luis Brazil! This Journey provides ambassadors with the opportunity to experience the natural beauty of Maranhão, experiencing it’s beaches, culture, cuisine, and history in the cities of São Luís and Barreirinhas, all while being hosted by members of FF São Luis! We will go on a city tour by foot through the historic center of São Luis, visit museums, a local market, a government palace, and the Artur Azevedo theater. |
|
|
| In Barreirinhas, we will visit Lençóis Maranhenses, where we’ll explore the dunes, bathe in the transparent waters of the rainwater lagoons, stroll along the river Preguiças, and enjoy the riparian forests. The area is a true spectacle of nature! We will also visit the lighthouse of Mandacaru and Caburé. |
|
|
| We will try several traditional Brazilian dishes and drinks, including feijoada, mocotó, salads, fruits, and, of course, our most well-known drink: caipirinha. In the evenings, we will watch folk attractions including Bumba Meu Boi, Cacuriá, and Tambor de Crioula: very traditional shows in this part of Brazil. |

|
| I want to visit these world-famous areas with you by my side! If you are interested, please contact me at my email address listed below, or view this Journey on the catalog for additional information. I look forward to hearing from you! In friendship, Thiago Lorena Fábio, Ambassador Journey Coordinator thiago.fbio@hotmail.com |
