Me neither. Awesome! Another destination on my world map I want to visit once in my lifetime ... or the next.

Probably, yes!

Pernambuco is a north's state of Brazil, is not a rich one, and contain part of the Brazillian Backwoods, something like our own Desert, where the great part of the poor and hungry Brazilians lives. Our current president is from there.

Jacurutu is name of a South-American Owl in tupi, a old language from the natives.

As you know, guys, I live in Rio de Janeiro, one of the most populated city in South America, and it is very very distant from Pernambuco (Brazil is big!).

Take a look how the Brazilian backwoods is:

I hope I have helped about it!
