  7. Brazil is a country I've never been but for its beauty I'd be there in the coming years.
    Ones of the activities of which I would like to share in Brazil would go to the Carnival in Rio, I’ve heard they are very impressive
    In Brazil we find some of the most important places of the world geographically such as the Pantanal.
    Iguazú Falls is undoubtedly a place where anyone would be, we can see in the picture below the incredible beauty.
    Another place to visit is the Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, which has a worldwide cultural recognition. Even for 2007 Christ the Redeemer was named one of the winners in the list of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World.
    And surely I'd be in Brazil for 2014 and Brazil will be organizing the next World Cup, I hope to be there
    and I also hope that our national team to qualify to also see them play.

  8. My visit was only of some hours, but it was necessary for describe this place as the scariest place that I’ve knew.
    For my work, in this moment, I needed to do an officers’ mind state evaluation that was working in a country’s Psychiatric Hospital, where they was watching convicts with mind problems (the crime was from fraud until homicide).
    I entered in this place with officers. They needed to do a security review to strengthen, because frequently, the patients escaped. My job was to do an officers’ mind state evaluation that was working I this place, because the hospital didn’t like the officers’ job.
    First image when I come to this place was a naked men, he was taken of flag mesh and not stop screaming, other patients was intoxicated by drugs who walked with difficulty and found it hard to react.
    When I was talking with officials, their stories did this place even worse than what I saw at that time. Officials counted as were attacked by patients, like they couldn't defend them. For this reason, they tried to evade their responsibilities, to be removed from this place.
    In the most security area, we didn't have access to the one, this place didn't like at the officers. The place had small and padded rooms (to prevent the patient is hurt yourself), where patients urinated and defecated (the smell was terrible). The patients with a higher risk of danger to themselves or others were here.
    This is a place often with pain and confusion, but this place could be the hope's last light, for those who for various reasons have come here.
    Well! This was the scariest place I've ever known.

  9. Around six years ago, I remember a French guy who came to Costa Rica to do his graduation project about food safety. I met this guy through a coworker of mine, and we become friends.

    One day, after he finished his project and before he leave Costa Rica, he invited us for dinner in his apartment, and he told us he would prepare a very special dish ….

    When we arrived to his apartment, we noticed something smelled weird … He told us that he had prepared “Raw Octopus Marinated”. It was a kind of “Octopus Ceviche”, with a terrible aspect! At the beginning, I didn't know what to do, so, I thought I should try to eat it, even a little bit, but it tasted worse than it looked!! the meat was tough and its taste was like ... I don't know... like dog food?! maybe...

    I felt ashamed when I told to my French friend that I didn't like the food he had prepared, so my coworker said the same, and our friend started to laughing and he said: "don't worry, I don't like either! Let's go for some pizza!"

    "Raw Octopus Marinated"... do you want to taste? See de picture below
