When two worlds collide - documentary

My newest found passion for spanish pushed me to scan through all the spanish language movie on Netflix. I would diligently repeat words and sentences as I see able to.

Yesterday, I chose - When two worlds collide -

In this feature documentary, we follow Alberto Pizango in Peru, environmental activist who brings the plea of his indigenous native community to the government and at the time president Alan Garcia to protect the rainforest from corporate interests. As the government ignores their demands, violence erupts. The documentary take us on the frontline of the conflict and we can feel the anger, grieve of the different parties involved.

The sight of the environmental destruction caused by natural resources exploitation and the harm, us, human, can cause to one another had its own significance for me, it will have its own for you too. Have a go and brush up some of this spanish.

Horrid Airbnb Experience - Getting in touch with Airbnb

After our adventure with B., the recovering alcoholic, I decided to look through Airbnb for some cues on B. The profile of B. appeared OK. the people on the page did not complain of any issue with him whatsoever. Only one person said that ''he could not stay anymore in their property'' - does that mean that he could stay because he wrecked the place? or because they had a change of plan? Who knows. I could not even bring myself to put my dirty laundry out on Airbnb. B. has mental health issues. Am I the one who needs to make this personal matter public on a social media platform?  So I wrote '' B. cannot stay in my property anymore and I hope that he will find a group of people who will be able to support him''. Is it the appropriate language to use? I contacted Airbnb to let them know about B. - they gave me a call and kind of told me that I need to be careful with the people I am bringing to my home. I told them, yes but there was no indication...
I am so frustrated. it is unbelievable to have to do it all over again in presenting my findings. I find it extreemely tiring. I am just upset to have to do it all over again and I have no way around. if you have no choice and have to do it. stop being upset and go through it. there is no way around it. - just do it. the longer you get upset about it, the longer it will take for you to actually get your findings sorted so just get a grip and doing all as quickly as possible.

Kidnapper?

A kidnapper is a person who abducts someone and holds them captive, typically to obtain a ransom. There are many kidnappers in one life. Those who love you may be you holding you captive until all is gone. Your work is too taking away your childhood dream so you can keep running on the treadmill. A tree is too, it gives you air. Cut it, you may die. Find and name your kidnapper and weight whether you shall escape or stay. Remember though as you live one another emerge because the definition of yourself does not exist, you are dependent on others and the environment you are in.
