Enjoying the landscape of Lencois Maranhenses National Park

Brazil boasts a diverse landscape as the largest country in South America. Iguassu Falls, the Amazon rainforest, and Lencois Maranhenses National Park are just a few of the amazing places travelers can visit during a trip. The coastline provides relaxing beaches while cities, such as Rio de Janeiro, provide urban escapes. This vast country truly has something for everyone!

South American Packing Essentials
Packing advice, including a list of recommended essentials for trips to South America. ATM/ Debit card. In every major and most minor cities in South America, I've found ATM machines that accept my debit card. Arrange for a fee waiver before leaving and save receipts in case there are errors. I was double charged or incorrectly charged more than three times totaling a staggering $970. I got it back, but it was a fight. Teva Sandals, durable and comfortable boots, and hiking socks. Hiking boots are versatile enough to wear to a show and tough enough for slogging through mud during an Andean shower. Your feet will thank you for the breather when you wear the sandals.
