Dead on! I had a similar experience in the Jerusalem airport, except a man inspected my crotch for minutes on end, not my camera. Security was somehow also surprised and threatened by women speaking in Arabic on film. Apparently they didn't know that 30% of Israel's population speaks Arabic as their native language.

I am brother Neco. Sourry, I don't speak ingles. Chorei ao ver o vídeo, lembrei de meu pai, e o carinho com ele fez cada almoço. Do céu, ele está curtindo o video. Da Terra, estamos felizes por ter alguns loucos que retratam a sensibilidade do mundo correndo atrás de uma bola. Parabéns! My brother and sister! Caros amigos, parabéns pelo trabalho.

My first time going out of USA, so I was very nervous. After arriving, I researched Bolivia found it was among the 3 safest countries in South America. I wasn't soo nervous after seeing numbers. I love soccer and loved my stay in Bolivia. Your bus rides reminded me of my trips. I'm definitely rent a car if I ever go back. Good luck with the movie! Check out these pics from the Salt Flats.

I've done the Salar trip and the bus rides and everything in between. Did you at least get some Minute Man pizza? Can't begin to tell you how typical your story is! I love it.

Paulino Alcantara came from Iloilo, Philippines-- he's the highest goalscorer in Barca History for almost a century now. The people in the region, esp. the rural area is still in love with football, though the rest of the country is shadowed by the basketball as the most popular sport. Just something nice to know.
