On National Boba day (April 30), CJ woke up feeling well rested and excited. Excited, because it’s national boba day and that means it’s idea to go down to Kung Fu Tea and get her some delicious brown sugar milk tea with egg pudding and honey boba. Not only did she get herself some...

For this assignment, I’ve decided to take the pictures on campus. I actually took the pictures while I was walking. I didn’t stop and take the picture, just kept on walking.I wanted to take pictures on campus because, I was already there and it was a nice day to take pictures. It was and...

Brazil Tourism Poster
This photo is one of my favorite from our time in Foz do Iguaçu. The natural beauty of this city is just stunning, and really can encapsulate the natural beauty that is just outside of the city, the Iguassu Falls. I decided to create this poster as a poster that the tourism bureau could...
Something is in the water
After traveling 12 hours overnight and getting into Manaus at 5am, we got into a small passenger van and drove two hours to the Maroaga Cave, in the Amazon Rainforest. We were all fairly exhausted but that also made it fun. We had all started interacting with each other heavily in the last 12...

Cruise Ship
The skiff excursions during the Amazon River cruise were very insightful. Even on the first day. When we first got on the boat I thought it was just going to be a normal boat ride, but boy was I wrong. It was so much more than that! And the tour guide that we had...
Tour Boat Ride
The boat ride was interesting to say the least. Right after we checked out of the hotel we went directly to the boat. I’ve always enjoyed riding in boats. When I was younger my great Uncle would drive me and my cousins on the lake near his house. So riding on the boat while...
Parrot on Frog
One of my favorite art pieces I saw at Parque Das Aves was the frog fountain. Even though it was a simple fountain sculpture, the water shooting from its mouth was appealing. Also, the green trees were a fitting background for the frog. One of my favorite birds I saw was the yellow-crowned parakeet....
Creeping up on a caiman

We were out on the morning safari, shortly after a piranha invited itself onto the boat, when Tamara recommended I get in to take a picture with a Caiman. Piro, our guide, encouraged me too! I was nervous but since the guide also recommended,...
