"Go to Rio!"
Betraying my Paulista roots, these words would blurt out of my mouth, triggered like a tick onto anyone who expressed an interest in visiting Brazil. I would ramble on and on about the unsurpassed charm and natural beauty of the city I had been pining for since my first visit five years ago.
So when I got a chance to chase a story to the Rio +20 summit, I didn't hesitate. While I spent most of my day interviewing a Mozambican activist, I squeezed in just enough time get some sand in my hair.
Rio did not disappoint. But with those colossal mountains kissing the ocean day after day, how could it?
