What do you need to start a drum corps? Just some old gas cans, some kitchen utensils, and a group of kids with a sense of rhythm. That’s it. Don’t believe me? Check out this video, that comes from our state of Maranhão. __________________________________________________ Did you enjoy this post? Consider making a donation to our…
Many times I have been asked to describe the beauty and splendor of Brazil’s Iguaçu Falls…and many times I have failed for want of vocabulary. There are simply no words that can express the magnitude and wonder of it all. You really have to see it for yourself. But if that is impossible, the next…

It’s an all-too-familiar scene in Brazil.
