One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Staying in Vidigal favela in Rio de Janeiro, and visiting Rocinha favela for a night. Took moto-taxis to the very top of the hill, then went onto some guy's roof had a spectacular view over Rio. Completely still and calm, with millions of lights below. Mind blowing that the poorest people there have these kind of views!
