Worst holiday was one to Rio de Janeiro that I tried organizing over the internet: rented a flat that was advertised on the classifieds, paid and when I got there, oh my! It felt like the last time the flat had been cleaned was six months before the old lady died in there! And brave me told hubby: "It's not that bad" (rule number, never admit you're wrong!). Less than half an hour later, I was knocking at the owner's door trying to recoup some of the money I had paid. Now this guy looked like he was a retarded serial killer. And this is Rio de Janeiro, not one of the safest places in the world. Anyway, a few minutes later, at 3am, we were getting a cab to get the hell out of Rio. It turned out ok, though, the cab driver took us to a clean hotel and we had an amazing time: New Year's in Rio is truly magical.
Best holidays:
Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe - Safari Lodge)
Kumarakom (India - Coconut Lagoon)
Cape Town (South Africa)
Kruger National Park in South Africa
Porto Seguro (Brazil)
Ubatuba (Brazil)
