[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A friend walking on Mussulo Island, the costume is not appropriate for a nice sunny day.

Mussulo is an Island just outside Luanda, it is one of the paradisiac places to visit, the sad thing about it in my own opinion is that people just start building nice, big and expensive concrete houses, they just did not realize to keep it real and natural instead they should continue to keep the pattern of their native residents wooden houses covered with dried grass.
Some of the VIP even prefer to live there and run away from the stress they get in Luanda city center avoiding the rush, traffic jams and heat they get electricity from generators, wireless Internet and satellite phones to manage their business.
Another problem is the sound of the boats and jet skis, in my opinion it disturbs the flora of the sea and pollutes the environment.
Well I think we will have to live with it.

Obrigado Primo Moutinho!
