14. SOUNDBITE: (English) Bob Nadkarni, Favela resident :
"
It's very interesting, there are places like
Hampstead in
London that used to be
London's worst favela, it was called Cloth
Hill 200 years ago and the direst of the times said that no man of any decent standard would be seen going in or coming out of there. In a favela, the small village syndrome is always apparent.
Everybody knows everybody. It's possible to go next door and borrow half a bag of sugar or to pop into the bar with no money and they'll say, pay when you next come past."

16. SOUNDBITE: (English) Elisabeth Skipsted, Tourist :
"I think it's a movement that you can compare with eco-tourism but now it's within the area of cultural tourism. That people come here because they want to see something authentic, something that's different, something that they can relate to because it's people."

18. SOUNDBITE: (English) Abigail Harding, Tourist :
"Where the jungle ends there, there's a big cliff and then you've got a drop and then the asphalt and I really like that. I feel like I'm bit of a princess in the tower here like
Rapunzel, I need to let my hair down."
