10b

Dear family,
I’m in Rio de Janeiro now, and this place is amazing and eye-opening. I’m teaching English to homeless street children in a makeshift school in the favelas. The children are very friendly and eager to learn, and I’m happy to see that they are making progress.
The host family I’m staying with is wonderful. They have treated me like one of the family, and I feel very welcome here. Life in the favelas is difficult, but the children are full of hope and courage.
This experience is truly special, and I know I will never forget it.
Love,
Mitch
