  Without romanticizing it, but if we look more closely, we will realize that the concept of wealth is relative, how many people pay a lot to have an experience like this, spending just a few days in front of such exuberant nature, eating fresh fish like this, a true paradise.

  Quando lembramos que o Ceará se tornou a primeira província do Brasil a eliminar a escravidão, pela recusa dos jangadeiros em transporta-los, lembramos que essa educação é também feita sobre valores morais e humanos. Orgulho dos jangadeiros.

  The only critic I have regarding this video is the samba soundtrack (it&apos;s not their culture), it could be forró (the local main traditional rythm), but that&apos;s it. Amazing.

  Minha tia/avó, que hoje tem 95 anos, viajou quando criança numa jangada um pouco maior que essa, dormindo nesse espaço interno da jangada. A viagem durou 3 dias. Foi levada de Galinhos até Natal no Rio Grande do Norte para ser criada com minha bisavó, ja que em Natal havia mais estrutura e melhores escolas. Uma história incrível.

  The raft emerged in the Brazilian Northeast from the evolution of the piperi, a type of boat made with three logs tied together by the Indians. The Portuguese were the first to spread the name &quot;jangada&quot; in Brazil, after having seen a similar vessel in India.<br>The raft was widely used by the Indians to travel across the seas and rivers, and by local fishermen as an efficient and economical way to fish. The raft was ideal for the Brazilian coast, as it allowed sailing against the wind and using the force of the wind to overcome the ocean current.<br>The raft was used by African slaves to fish in the captaincy of Pernambuco in the early 16th century. The raft was part of the daily life of the raftsmen of the Northeast since at least the 17th century.<br>The construction of the traditional raft, made with floating wood trunks, is becoming extinct. Today&apos;s rafts are made from industrialized wooden planks or using mechanized cutting tools.

  Brazil is the country with the greatest variety of boats in the world. Mainly the wooden boats fried in an artisanal way, ancient family legacies.

  I lived near these guys near Natal, Brazil. They loved to talk about their harrowing adventures. Years ago, filmmaker Orson Wells was so impressed by Jangadeiros, he made a film about them.
