back home

well, i am back here in san francisco so my time in brazil has come to a close, finally. truncated but worth it. a third party accessed my bank account and it was locked, paypal was also locked. i loaned $300 to a friend without knowing he had a cocaine addiction and he never paid me back. my house was robbed, laptop and cables and chargers for phone and camera stolen, my cat died, i was poisoned as a joke, and my friend ivo ended up being caught by the police for stolen goods and ended up splitting town never to be seen again.

i learned how to cook some brazilian food, i learned that doing nothing all day is not an easy task for me. i learned to trust no one and be skeptical with people who say they are your friends. give personal information to no one. i learned to speak portuguese, that people, both good and bad, just want to be loved.

brazil was not what i had hoped... but that is the adventure.

tchau until the next trip.
