Busting out the ´Sunga´

Posted by .murph.

As one girl kindly told me: only fat people and surfers where boardshorts. ´Sungas´ (speedos) are the swimwear of choice.

So, as I´m attempting to re-intergrate to my own culture. I made my way to several shops, looking for speedos.

"Do you have anything bigger than this?" I´d ask. Tried one on. My white thighs are such a contrast to the rest of my body´s colour. I have to say I felt embarrassed with this thing on. haha.

But two days ago, I gathered the courage to bust it out on the beach. One small step for Phil, one giant leap for his re-integration to his Brazilian roots.
