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.

Missminimalist , Thank you

I was hooked to missminimalist blogs in the past four days, reading approximately 16 pages of individuals testimonies on how they started and enjoyed their minimalist journey. It opened my eyes on the endless minimalist lifestyles that any of us can implement. I admire the traveller, the spiritualist, the true materialist (as opposed to consumerist), the mindful, the artist, the mum, the dad, the designer who with intention choose to keep the things that add value to his/her life and get rid of the frivolous. Beyond just getting rid of things, there is not participating to our current wasteful society, it is recognising that we are all equal regardless of what we own and finally it is embracing freedom. It is why I love it. I encourage you to have a read/rid, I hope it will inspire you:  http://www.missminimalist.com/
