What’s the experience like?

We’d just landed in Fortaleza, still a bit sticky from the flight, when our driver waved us over — big smile, holding a sign with my name (I always get nervous about that part). The car was spotless and cool inside, which felt like a small miracle after the airport’s heat. I remember the faint smell of hand sanitizer mixed with that new-car scent. My daughter immediately claimed the window seat and started asking how long it would take to reach Jericoacoara. Our driver, Paulo, answered in patient Portuguese and then switched to English for me — he said about five hours if the roads behaved.

The road out of Fortaleza is kind of hypnotic — endless stretches of green, then sudden bursts of sand dunes or tiny villages where kids waved as we passed. There’s this moment when you lose sight of the city behind you and realize you’re really headed somewhere different. Paulo pointed out a roadside stand selling tapioca pancakes; I wanted to stop but we’d just eaten, so maybe next time. The Wi-Fi actually worked (my husband streamed football highlights), and there were wipes tucked into every seat pocket — little things I didn’t think I’d care about until I did.

I kept watching for that first glimpse of Jericoacoara’s famous dunes but honestly lost track of time chatting with Paulo about his favorite beaches. He laughed when I tried to pronounce “Preá” — apparently my accent needs work. The sun was starting to dip by the time we finally rolled into town, dust swirling in golden light. It felt like arriving at the edge of something wild and quiet all at once. Even now, I remember that last stretch — windows down, salt air mixing with dust — more than anything else from the trip.
