Testimonials:
"Words can not describe my experience living and learning in Fortaleza, Brazil. Neither can the photographs. Many things changed in me as a result of my month in Brazil. It was especially powerful for me to walk through the favelas, or poor neighborhoods, and work day by day at the Emaus recycling center with people from there. If I could relive any time of my life, it would be my month in Fortaleza.
Muito obrigado, Jade Journeys, for making it happen!"
