Hello friends of Steemit! :)

Today I was feeling a little bit nostalgic looking at old and great pictures from our first trip together, and I wanted to share with you all a little bit of this adventure!

It was on Janurary 2017, after the new year. Ivan was alreary in the North of Minas Gerais, and I was in Buzios (Rio de Janeiro) with some friends. We met directly in the beautiful city of São Thomé das Letras. I went with a friend in his motocycle (5 hours from São Paulo!), it was a long trip, we had to make several stops because our legs hurt a lot, and Ivan went by bus.


São Thomé is in the middle of the mountains of Minas Gerais far from the sea. The view from the city is breathtaking, you can see wonderful sunrises and sunsets, besides all the pretty waterfalls and caves you can visit. The city is all made of stone, what gives charm to the town.

It's a magical place with a lot of magical people. We met a group of people, with whom we visited the cave "Gruta da bruxa". It was a crazy experience, never did something like that. It was a true challenge for some people to cross all over the cave. We had to stay calm, persist and overcome our fears.

If one day you have the opportunity to visit a cave, do it, worth it!

This is the "Piramide". A very touristic and known place, where the view is stunning!

Now, here are some photos of the view from the city, and the beauty of it!

Thank you all for reading us, we hope this post has transmitted a little bit of the magic of this amazing place, and hope you can visit this city one day :)
