This week I learned that my sertanejo dancing needs some work, churrasco is awesome, and I am not a hiking person.
Seriously, churrasco is they best thing I have eaten in Brazil. I would like to have this every week, please and thank you.
As for hiking in Itaara, well, it certainly was an adventure for me. I’d gone hiking before, but nothing like this. The hiking “trails;” however, weren’t really trails. We climbed up and down 45 degree angle pathways littered with loose stones and walked along wet stream banks. It definitely was an authentic hike through nature. Unfortunately, my host sister twisted her ankle on such trails. I kept on for the duration of six hours with the constant fear that the same would happen to me (especially hiking downhill through the forest!) Luckily, I made it out of the wilderness in one piece; albeit, sporting some bruises, scratches and several layers of mud on my body. My companions finished the hike practically unscathed. It was no matter; my primary goal was to avoid being the last one to finish (I didn’t want to shame the homeland, you see). And while I’m glad to say that I accomplished my goal that day, I’m not so sure I’ll be heading back into the wilderness anytime soon.
Back on level ground, I engaged in some stimulating conversations with Wizard students. The most heated topic of discussion I’d have to say was that of race relations in Brazil vs. those of the U.S. Our systems are very different, so I explained why the U.S. categorizes people the way they do. In my opinion, each system has its flaws and neither is an accurate representation of what “type” of people inhabit each country, nor what category a person truly belongs in. Other polemic issues that were discussed included: gay marriage, religious intolerance, the legalization of marijuana, the death penalty in the U.S., and the college application process in the U.S. vs. in Brazil. These were all really good discussions, and I think everyone would have liked to go on speaking about them longer, were it not for the class time-limit. I think that this experience really exemplified what cultural experience is all about. Sometimes one has to step outside of their comfort zone in order to see where their aversion to the matter stems from and whether or not such an aversion is truly validated. By doing this, you can start forming your own ideas and opinions on the subject instead of merely accepting what you hear from others.
And hey, this piece of advice is applicable to my hiking trip! But I learned that I am afraid of heights and falling :p
I do love intellectual conversations :)
My reaction. And to proposition about Joan. I will say, that was a great song choice for the end of the episode
