Last week I received a phone call from my good friend Felipe, asking me if I wanted to go with him to a competition trekking event. He was invited to join a team and he was wondering if I wanted to walk with them. I would not be on the team, I would just be following them. This is called being a “bug”. A few days later someone on the team canceled, so Felipe asked me if I wanted to participate as a registered trekker. I was a little afraid that I would not be physically fit enough for the challenge, but I accepted anyway. Follow the jump to read more about the adventure we had…

No, don’t worry, I’m not talking about the hair I am talking about my Wacken-wristbands of 2004 and 2006. If this feels so bad that i have to blog about it, then how is it going to feel if i ever decide to cut the hair off? I don’t think I can handle that

Anyway, here you can see what they look like and you will understand that it was time to let each other go. Goodbye my loyal friends!

Meet Raquel, the girl that makes me feel butterflies

Last weekend we finally made it to Serra do Cipó. The first attempt failed because me and Felipe were in Ervalia, Juliana was sick and Bruno was busy. Read about our hiking adventure after the jump…
