My instagram obsession is equal to that of my guacamole obsession so it\u2019s only fitting that it has a place to live on the site! Here\u2019s the deal \u2013 sometimes when you\u2019re visiting a new country, market or restaurant you see beautiful photos everywhere, but you don\u2019t want to bombard everyone on instagram and make them hate you. So rather than posting a billion photos in a row on insta, they are coming over here to Whats\u2019 Gaby Cooking so we can all get a bit of wanderlust!<\/p>\n<p>My first insta-trip feature I\u2019m kicking it back to my <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/adventures-belem-brazil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brazilian adventures<\/a> from 2014! If you tuned in yesterday you\u2019re now well aware of my <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/coconut-acai-bowl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Acai bowl<\/a> obsession\/situation. As of today, I\u2019ve eaten an Acai bowl 5 out of the last 6 days, and I plan on continuing this trend for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s the thing, to be totally honest, I didn\u2019t know anything about Acai until last year!! I\u2019ve been living under a rock. Lucky that all changed after my #onlyinsouthamerica trips to Brazil last year with TAM airlines. On the first trip I found myself deep in the <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/amazon-rainforest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amazon rainforest<\/a> and tried my very best to climb and Acai tree. Let me tell you this \u2013 it\u2019s the hardest thing I\u2019ve ever tried to do as some of them are 80+ feet tall. (clearly I need to work on my upper body strength). On my second trip we were right at the mouth of the Amazon in <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/adventures-belem-brazil\/#.VKwXVYrF8m8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Belem<\/a>, another place where you can find tons of Acai trees along with other interesting ingredients, some of which we don\u2019t even see in America!<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorite parts of the most recent Brazil trip was an expedition to Ver-O-Peso, which was one of the largest open air markets I\u2019ve ever seen. There were colorful ingredients every way I turned and today we\u2019re taking a virtual tour some of those crazy cool ingredients found at the market\u2026 including my newest love\u2026 Acai Berries!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18259\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/wp-content\/uploads\/Matt_Armendariz_Brazil_009.jpg\"
