Rio de Janeiro:

After a week in Rio I’m not tanned at all, except for my upper lip, which decided to go way darker than the rest of my face. Now it looks like I have a permanent five o’clock shadow. The doctor said that it’s ‘odd’ sun damage and should take a month (A MONTH!) to go away. Tans never last that long on me when they’re even!  Moral of the story: corpse-white skin and the South American sun don’t mix well.

All that said, it was an unbelievable week and I would do it all again (maybe minus the mustache rash, but if it must be, it must be).
