How about a trip to Brazil Far South

The southernmost region of Brazil is more akin to its southerly neighbours, Uruguay and Argentina in many ways, than the rest of the country it belongs to. There is much more rural and agricultural feel to the land here, with huge cattle ranches, a gaucho-esque way of life and a lush and fertile land suitable for crops and other agricultural ways of life. There are a huge number of lakes and rivers in the area and the northern reaches of this area are the southernmost aspects of the huge Pantanal wetlands. The population is found predominantly near the coastal regions, with large ports common and long stretches of beach and coastline bustling in the summer months
