Peter Matz lived in Angola from 2005 to 2007. During this time, he experienced many of the highs and lows the country has to offer, propelling him into a journey of spiritual transformation. Among other events, he recalls being robbed at a basketball game, getting beaten up by a jilted date, twice finding his car mysteriously gone, and having his driver s license confiscated by uniformed bandits. The book is illustrated with many of Peter's photos.
