My Retuning Trip-S. Diaz

I'm not sure what I want to learn because this is a returning trip, but I hope to kind of pick up where we left off last year and hope to meet new people and learn new things. There was a place we went last year called "23 de Enero" (The 23 of January) which was something like a village in a city. The cool thing about it was that they never really involved the police or any type of government officials unless the situation really called for it. It was interesting beacuse within that community, there was a great deal of trust. I just thought it was cool how the people could handle, I guess, most of there situations. I think it would be great if a lot of us here in the US could do the same. My interest is mostly in the culture and it's politics. I just want to see how the people the people live depending on the area they live. Also, I would really like to see more of their political side with all the controversy that goes on with Chaves. This is my second time going, so my expectations aren't as high as they would usually be, but I hope to see some the people we met last year and be surprised at the same time.
