We spent most of the time last week traveling to Fortaleza, making all the arrangements for our company, getting the visa done, etc.. sometimes frustrating but in the end worth the effort. The first thing you learn, patience. Keep your patience. Smile, be nice, and keep your patience. The warm weather helps a lot of course..

We were staying in Kitecamp Cumbuco, a really cool pousada which is owned by Patrick and Aurelie. Addictive to kitesurfing you can say for sure.

With them we took several downwinders to the laguna and a daytrip to Paracuru as well. Great.

At night we went for dinner at the ACL chicken grill and for drinks to Laranja Mecanica which is the bar above the 0031 restaurant. Life is not bad when you're around here. Ciao..

Brunotti Windtown Hotel

Brunotti Windtown Hotel, originally uploaded by activecumbuco.

This Hotel is open since end of 2006, it is called the Brunotti Windtown Hotel Cumbuco and it's located right on the beach. The owners are a Dutch kitesurf champion, Suzette, and her boyfriend. The atmosphere is very relaxed, if you enjoy kitesurfing and hanging around the pool area, this is a great place to stay. The kiteschool is a part of the hotel and I am sure that they are organizing kitesurf adventure safari trips as well. The Hotel is located just outside the village centre but it's only a short walk home. I noticed that Suzette and her team are doing a lot of promotion with local travel agencies and have also organized a Kitechix trip to Brazil. Check out the pictures from their site.
