The exchange is the main gain, I already knew this, but here I am taking the opportunity to reinforce that feeling.

Bristol, January 2014

Thu 23 Jan, 2014

During the time I was in Bristol, many questions came in my mind, about the project, the city and my role within it. Having the opportunity to be in England exchanging knowledge and ideas with this group was very interesting. Also being able to display the first documentary I directed and lead questions .

First week

Sun 12 Jan, 2014

I believe that everything a person constructs is linked to what she carries and who she is, reflecting its history. Since I arrived in Bristol I have been able to live with me in a different way and with the Recife: The Playable City’s partners too. I believe that everyone is growing, and as I still do not know exactly where it leads to, but the opportunity to be able to exchange being rich. Throughout the week, we had access to several discussions around the concept of Playable and it was interesting to feel the "chaos" and realize how much we can take from it.
