    🎶I love the fun in the sun and the people.
    In Rio de Janeiro, it’s so exciting to see,
    no matter where you go.

    Any time, day or night, everything is so alive.
    Music there is really hot.
    You should see ’em do the Rio rock.
    Nothing like it nowhere else.
    It’s a feeling that I’ve never felt.
    Never stops, never ends.
    It blows your mind just being there.🎶

Las Vegas is definitely one of my favourite cities ever, and I’m already anticipating a return trip to Toronto (I go for the first time in 2 weeks!) as it’s such a short stopover.
