I met a guy a little over a year ago working in a place that sells suits, who had retired from the DEA and a few other orgnaizations I cannot remember. He is a caucasian male, who was born in the Brazilian rain forest, within a seclusive tribe that is now extinct. His parents were both in the medical field, and they lived their amongst the natices to help them out with their health. He had all these pictures of when he was born, as a child growing up, and later on as a young adult. He grew up with their native language, english, portuguese, spanish, and he learned a few others as he grew older with his field and education. Anyway, he worked for the American government down in Brazil working on classified stuff. I can't remember, but he may have been relocated once or twice, but I could be wrong on that. My fiance is fromMexico, and he was talking fluent spanish with her like a first language, and the guy looked like a dorky white guy who'd never expect to know any of this about...lol, very nice though. Anyway, he graduated here in the USA from college before he went in to work for LE and the government, and is now retired at a fairly young age. He has a house here in the states, and one on Brazil. His parents still live in Brazil as well.
But yeah, he mentioned how that tribe, and others he grew up learning and conversing with are now all extinct....makes ya kind of sad.
