After a hiatus of a couple of years and a couple of member changes, the Raimundos came out with some new stuff last February. Available for download in mp3 on the MTV Brasil website: http://mtv.terra.com.br/raimundos/

Since I write on travel with a focus on those with limited mobility or some other disability (www.RollingRains.com) I put some ideas together and published it as "Brazil for Beginers". Here it is for anyone interested in a place to start thinking about visiting Brazil:

However somewhere out of the background noise one day I heard someone say "Pão de Queijo" on the radio. I was fascinated to hear about a woman named Janete creating community for San Francisco's Brazilian taxi drivers. Here's the story:

There's surfing all along the Brazilian coast, but most people generally say the waves are best in Santa Catarina. For starters, check out Praia do Rosa: http://www.brazilmax.com/news1.cfm/tborigem/pl_south/id/2

Capitão David seems like a pretty interesting dude. Santa Cantarina looks like a awesome break. Where is Santa Cantarina located in Brazil? Near any big cities? Any other interesting stuff happening around there?
