Everything In Its Right Place


Rio de Janeiro, carneval. Yeah, I went there a couple of years ago. Searching for a life-changing experience, I ran into a different cliché. I joined three other dudes seeking to make a splash in the biggest party of the year. Turns out a few million others heard the rumor along with us. We searched deep into the night for the hidden samba party that did not show up on the news. We hunted through neighborhoods away from the main strips for a cool restaurant with a killer band in the bar that played on until dawn. Meet some cool people from a different culture and contemplate future experiences to share. Funny thing about the cliché we encountered, it was not too far away from what we originally sought. It’s just that we started looking for the experience in the wrong place.
