With a crown on his head, 44-year-old Marcio Mizael Matolias sits on a throne in front of his sand castle, despite the 40-degree heat that punishes bathers on the beach of Barra da Tijuca in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
For the last 22 years, Matolias has lived inside his sand castle surrounded by books, golf clubs and fishing poles. Neighbors and friends call him "The King."
He said: "I grew up in the Bay of Guanabara, I always lived on the beach. People pay exorbitant rents to live in front of the sea, I do not have bills and here I have a good life."
