03.08 & 04.08 Falling short

The people who have been there describe it as the roar of nature, its violence, its force. The place where you can see countless rainbows. The second largest waterfall in the world, the largest one in South America, and the most powerful one in the world. Foz do Iguazu. It’s compared to the devil’s throat – Garganta do Diabo.

I won’t see the waterfall. I’m lacking the resources. Instead, I’m spending my last few days in the concrete jungle of Sao Paulo.

Christopher McCandless said “Money makes us cautious” as he burnt his credit cards and gave away his savings to charity and set off to travel.

I don’t have his courage… Yet. Maybe someday I will give meaning to this Yet. Maybe not.
I don’t know. I have met people on this trip who have his courage.

A friend of mine wrote to me saying your baggages are full, and your pockets empty - this is the closest you can be to Freedom! :) :)
