Gurupi is a destination with stacks of cool stories to tell. If you reckon your life's been a bit boring lately, a trip here is the perfect answer!
It sits 470 kilometres to the north of the country's capital, Brasilia.
If you've got loads of time, why not go to some close-by places? Cariri do Tocantins and Peixe are 40 kilometres and 55 kilometres away, respectively.
Tickets? Check. Passport? Check. But have you packed your appetite? With some fantastic food and drink to try around this region, it's the one thing you won't want to forget.
This part of the world has its own cuisine based on local tastes and traditional ingredients. You'll discover fresh water fish and beef are two common elements in much of the fare.
During your time in Gurupi, you should eat like the locals do. That means trying a plate of vatapa (shrimp with peanut sauce) or churrasco (barbecue), some of the region's classic dishes.
If you never say no to dessert, you're not going to be disappointed. Try beijinho de coco (coconut balls), a yummy treat that's sure to satisfy your sugar cravings.
You won't get the full travelling experience until you've had a sip of the local beer. Whether you want to sit back in a quiet corner or get a bit of liquid courage to make new friends, ask for Antartica.
For something a little stronger, enjoy one or two shots of batida. Drink it down neat or ask the bar person for mixed-drink recommendations.
Start your evening in fine form with a drop of a local speciality like Don Laurindo or Villa Francioni. Taste for structure, balance and texture, or simply share a bottle with friends.
Don't let any cultural barriers put you off! Make your visit to Tocantins a more engaging one by memorising a few phrases in the local tongue. Try to pronounce 'Olá'. It translates to 'hello'. Another one to add to the memory bank is 'Como te chamas?', meaning 'what's your name?'.
If you've got the good fortune to be in Gurupi on the 7th of September, get ready to let your hair down! Independence Day sees crowds of people getting out and about and celebrating.
When it's time to say "Adeus" to Gurupi, don't stress — you can always come back!
Time to fly back home? Pack your bags, set the alarm and map a route to Brasilia International - President Juscelino Kubitschek Airport (BSB). It's some 480 kilometres to the south.
