Kevin Tunstill.\u00a0 This isn’t the end of our blog – we will periodically keep posting news and updates about the Brazil Travel program at Chapman University.\u00a0 The next Brazil Travel Course will be for our cadre of\u00a0 undergraduates in June.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Favelado\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sadly, our trip to Rio de Janeiro is finally coming to an end as we cross the final things off of our to do lists.\u00a0 Several students chose to spend their last day touring a favela from the back of a Jeep, while others went shopping in Ipanema and Copacabana for souvenirs to take home to their loved ones.\u00a0 Two of our classmates headed to Iguazu Falls for the weekend to take in the amazing views, and another eight students who decided to stay at our hotel in Leblon for a few more days waved farewell to the bus as it left for the airport.<\/p>\n

The trip as a whole was an extremely valuable learning experience that none of us will ever forget.\u00a0 It was an exciting opportunity to immerse ourselves in a fascinating culture that is unlike ours in many ways.<\/p>\n
