Sam Champion is never far away from a well-deserved vacation and his latest is proving to be quite the trip. 

The Good Morning America host took to Instagram to share a snapshot of himself from Rio where he was enjoying a cup of coffee and sporting a new shaggy hairstyle too. 

Sam, 61, appeared shirtless and relaxed and added a caption which read: "Morning coffee to beach walk! Hasn’t been the sunniest time in Rio.. but this beach is wild and wonderful!! #bringcoffee #beachbum #beachlife #bomdia #pria."
