From the sandy beaches of Northland to the snowy Southern Alps, New Zealand is a country of eye candy. When New Zealand was designed, it’s as if all the greatest places on earth were put together in one compact little land mass and most of the people were removed. Luckily for travelers, New Zealand is also a user-friendly kind of place, combining the laid-back attitudes of an island with the conveniences and life-style of the first world. New Zealanders, or Kiwis, are honest-to-goodness nice folks. It’s like living in a country full of labrador retrievers.
Brazil is the largest country in South America and the fifth-largest in the world. It covers half the land mass of the continent and touches every country in South America except Ecuador and Chile. It can be divided into five regions – South, Southeast, Central-West, North and Northeast. Each region comprises several states and has a distinct landscape, almost as if it were a separate country.
Brazilian government is based on the American model and since 1985 it has been ruled by a civilian president. For the previous 20 years it had been ruled by military leaders.
