Our rental villa is a short walk to Ipanema so we spent most of our time in Rio at this famous beach.
Even during week days, Ipanema is always crowded with tons of fabulous looking young people. It made us wonder if young people in Brazil has any work to do. After chatting with a few locals, we found out a lot of the people hanging out on beach are aspiring actors/actresses showing off their bodies in hope to be discovered by some talent agencies 😆.
