180 South

I thought 180 South was a very effective documentary to show how much simpler ones life can be. Jeff gave up pretty much everything in pursuit of a dream. He want to climb Corcovado and did everything he took to get there. I do not know anyone who would give up that much time out of their life to pursue such a daring dream. Not only was climbing the mountain risky, so was everything he did along to way to get to the mountain. 180 South showed this inspiring adventure, but it showed did a great job portraying the beauty of nature. It gave me a new understanding of who and what is affected when a dam is put up in a remote area. It made me more and more grateful for the beautiful parts of the world that are still not affected by man. It made me think about simplifying my life and how much of a change that could make.
