Hmmm: The View from My Window - São Paulo, Brazil


A few impressions from five days in São Paulo...
  • This is a massive, correction gargantuan city, with highrise buildings in every direction as far as the eye can see.
  • I've never met a Brazilian I didn't like. These people are very nice.
  • Tons of Italian restaurants and grilled meat, but very good grilled meat.
  • I love the sound of Portuguese.
  • Street art (graffiti) is rampant as is art by local painters which is quite beautiful.
  • Tourism sites? Not so much, unless a snake venom research facility, a soccer stadium, a train station and a new hotel count. Actually the new hotel which is named Hotel Unique looks pretty nice.

I love grilled meat, the sound of Portuguese and samba and bossa nova music, too.
