What a experience!

Visting a favela is such an experience: you learn about social matters in Brazil. You know a different lifestyle in which there are a lot of needs that are basic but aren't meet. In spite of the situation they live in, people face life with a positive attitude, which is shown in the Rio carnival: Mangueira is a samba school which as been a winner many times for its costumes, music, dance and joy. Favelados seem to be resilient people, who are used to live tragedies but are capable of being cheerful and give life its value. I made a lot of friends and learnt a lot about Brazilian society and life. I want to come back again, and I'm planing my next trip.
