Brazil
Along Rio's beaches, there are little stalls where you can get your ice cold beer etc. Beto & Ana are a fantastic couple who will look after you and your things while you swim, walk or play football on the beach. They will introduce you to loads of good people and invite you to join in for a barbecue!
They are on Ipanema, just down from lifeguard tower number 9. Their tent has Beto & Ana written on it. Tell them Anders, Fernando's friend sent you!
