Hey, I have moved to a farm here in Brazil and am left with no Internet. I do have cows and a lot of coffee trees, but no net… It´s sad how dependent we have become to that little phone wire that allows us to connect with the distant, and disconnect with the immediate. I find myself itching a lot lately, and sweating during the nights. Now, this could be from the fact that it is hot like a Russian sauna, and there are a lot of mosquitos at the farm.
But this distance from technology means that my picture on facebook will stay the same for the next few weeks, and the posts here will stop for a bit.
I am working on a story about Brazil´s forgotten rural children. Should be very interesting, so keep checking the blog for it.
I also have a project to get a child from Espirito Santo do Pinhal´s rural area, and one from the city to post up a weekly journal. I think it will be interesting to see how close they live geographically, but how far their worlds really are in all other aspects.
Never forget that dreamers change the world
Peace
