My Travels

This is a day by day journal, so in the future I can look back and reflect on my experiences and those I have shared them with.

Probably involved the beach at some point.

Cant remember what I did but it probably involved the beach at some point.  Later watched City of God...this was based in a favela and indeed most of the young actors were teenagers living in the favelas at the time. Since the film's success these actors have become a lot more famous and wealthy. According to the guide we had on our Favela Tour the young actors have put a lot back into the favelas and many stories he told reflected the loyalty that people brought up in these areas felt towards each other.
A really good watch
