the girl from ipanema goes walking.

if any of you picked up the new w magazine...
(which means you'd have to get past the, ahem, alarming cover of bruce willis and his new wife...)
..hopefully you didn't see the full photo-spread of the newlyweds because chances are that if you did, you would likely put the magazine back on the shelf and never get to the photos i'm about to show you...

welcome to brazil's bahian coast..


and the modest brandolini beach shack.



yes please.




the rest of the town...




in the meantime, i just booked a modest hotel room of my own on the oregon coast for this weekend.
can't wait to get out of town!!
