Cumbuco, Brazil - Kitesurfing, injuries and beaches

A direct flight from La Paz to Fortaleza would've been only around 2-3 hours. But those were extremely expensive, around 1500EUR per person! So, we took the 24 - 25-hour flight. Or it was four flights actually: La Paz - Iquique - Santiago - Sao Paolo - Fortaleza. Ush! All flights were with LaTam and all 4/4 were delayed by 1 - 1,5 hours. In Iquique and Sao Paolo we had to get our luggage, check them in again, and go through security and customs. Felt a bit unnecessary. In Santiago we tried to sleep on the benches but got maybe 30 min of sleep due to a) all noise around and b) the "very comfortable" benches. We asked if we could've bought entrance to a lounge but it was 49USD/person so we skipped it. But after all the hassle and 31 hours, we made it to Fortaleza, North of Brazil.
