2 out of 7

2 years ago, i wrote about being able to go to 1 out of 7 of the new 7 wonders of the world. i really feel very lucky and blessed to be able to do 2 out of 7 just a few weeks ago, christ redeemer in rio de janeiro. my 2 sisters and i joined a brazil trek in MIT. first time that the 3 of us got to travel together, too bad our youngest sister (we missed you shobe!!!) wasn't able to join us 'coz she has classes. it was a great experience! new friends, fun memories and a lot of firsts!

brazil, most specially rio, is a very interesting place. it's a good balance of urban and rural life, merging people from different places and different races. a lot more to it besides beaches, slippers, models and soccer games.

i didn't expect that staying in rio for a week would make me fall in love with the city. given a chance, i would love to live there.

goodbye for now rio...i hope to see you soon!
