i live in the mountains, and i love the beach.

the thing is: i'm white as a ghost and i'm scared of people, which means the mountains are actually perfect for me! I'm not really afraid of animals, which is concerning to everyone bc every time i see a snake while hiking, my instinct tells me to flip it on it's belly to check if patterns close or if they are open just to know if i'm gonna die or not.

the mountains also have more shade, which is great for me. and since i'm not really tall, i like seeing things from above, and there are very few feelings better than going up up up up just to get to the top and see something cool.

on the other hand: since i could (in theory) go hiking every weekend, but i'm very far from the ocean, i feel like i have to choose it? you know what i mean? i love love love water. even tho im white af, it takes a lot to take me out of the water, which is a problem bc then i burn but it's fine. most of the times it's just my freckles freckling. and at the beach i can walk on the rocks and catch tatuí!!! tatuí, un underrated, cool af lil being. I can also find other little animals and hike along the coast.

also the beach in br is just a vibe. idk man, highly recommend if you have the chance :] food? top notch. views? 11/10. CORN??????

What i'll choose is the first half of the vacation by the sea and the second half in the mountains, preferably down by Itatiaia NP bc i love the atlantic forest and we should appreciate it more.
