Very proud of the people of my country

Thanks a lot Dateline SBS for showing that Brazil has more than violence and carnaval. The creativity shown by the couple Luiz and Edna Toledo definitely represents very well the way our people face dificulties. From a very proud Brazilian! Anderson Assuncao.

Brazil buildings

What a fantastic idea and project. I think it would go over very well in many countries to allow affordable housing and a great solution to keeping so much rubbish out of the landfill.
