We're back in Recife again today. It was really fun to go and visit other cities but it's also nice to come "home" afterwards. Today was a rest day, so I just stayed home and talked to the maid, Dulce about our trip. She has never even left her home state of Pernambuco. When I asked her if she felt like traveling anywhere else, she said maybe to Rio de Janeiro to visit some family she has there, but that she didn't even really want to travel outside of Brazil. It was interesting to see how different people have different desires. I really love traveling and getting to know new places, but there are many people back home in Louisiana who have also never left their home state. So probably in regards to traveling it's more of a personal desire and opportunity that makes a difference as opposed to being a cultural trait.
