    The towns of my grandparents (all the three are very small ones).

    A pic of my maternal grandfather native town, he was baptized in that chapel:



    A pic of my maternal grandmother native town, she was born a few kilometers in the rural area, away from the center of the town, which has basically only two or three streets so small it is! It is not that far from my maternal grandfather hometown, that's how they met and got married:



    My paternal grandparents hometown, also in the same state of Brazil but in another region of it, though not too far from my maternal grandparents hometown. My father was born 40 km away from the city center in a rural area. The church of the town is the main building and I used to go there often when I was a child. It is a small town too. My grandparents moved to the city center in the 50's, close to that church.

    We don't have streets that look like this. Think it's awsome. Like Elder Scrolls.
