I've been traveling lately, and I have to say, I love being in the middle of nowhere. I went through the inner regions of Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais, and man, I always forget how stunning it is. It's so much better than urban centers; I always get shocked with the contrast to the shitholes that the capital cities are when looking at these places.
It almost makes me forget that this country is terrible.
The government* if I could remove the entire government (everything, all parties) of this place, it would become the best country in the world.
