Holiday Inn Pargentinaque Anhembi Sao Paulo

I wasn´t sure whether or not to come here, I had a vision of it being a dirty rotten city, and very unsafe. However, I am very glad I visited, it seems I had some misconceptions.
There isn´t bundles to see as far as sightseeing goes, but there is still good stuff to see.
Only stayed here 2 nights so did~´t have much time.
I stayed in the Jardim area (near Av Paulista) on the recommendation of our travel guide ...

... C, to catch a bus to the airport. Needless to say we were hot and tired but, we made our flight in good time, and upon landing in Sao Paulo at 9pm, we decided to try and make the 11.30pm overnight bus to Campo Grande (a city of the Pantanal region, to do some MORE wildlife spotting!), mainly because we had no real desire to see much of Sao Paulo. We luckily caught a connecting transfer bus to the coach station pretty much immediately after collecting our bags, and made it in time to ...

-Don’t worry, it will be explained, so don’t rush to click out so fast.

Who is to say what success is of importance and is not? Is someone really better than another, given any variables, if weighed out on a scale, before the most objective of all men? Why doesn’t the garbage man belong on the cover of US news, while the stock broker piles the same magazine in some bathroom cabinet? Anthony and I discussed personal purpose and reach ...

... Punta Arenas mais ao Norte no Chile.

No pier fui recebido pelo Sr Luis do Hostal Yagan em seu 4x4 azul. Fomos ao Hostal, que eh uma parte da casa dele, e depois de deixar a mochila saimos para um city tour por ideia e cortesia dele.

Puerto Williams eh uma cidade rustica, 2262 habitantes sendo metade militares. Os civis se dividem entre a pesca ou trabalhar para o governo, afinal Williams eh a capital da Provincia ou Comuna Antartica Chilena. As ruas sao ...

... the startling and depressing two more hours(almost) of small patches of green between huge bare patches-grass and dirt the result of heavy logging. It was worse than I expected and shattered my little dream world about the Amazon being endless.... What is seemingly endless though is this city! Flying in was remarkable at night, so many lights as far as I could see. Tomorrow we will explore a bit, and hopefully have good sushi(São Paulo has the biggest Japanese population outside of Japan)

... when got up this morning but somehow managed to pull myself together adn get ready. slept the first 1 1/2hours then we had a service station stop then the sickness and hangover kicked in adn me and alex just sat there looking very sorry for ourselves staring out the window popping travel sick pills for all we were worth. was very close to sickness on a number of occasions. anyway, made it through with all bodily fluids in rightful places and now we are in sao paulo. took us six ...

Algumas pessoas gostaram dessa idéia de ficar um tempo conhecendo novos lugares, abrir mão de muita coisa para viver alguns momentos não-usuais, diante de tantos questionamentos, vou sumarizar o que aprendi neste período de organização da viagem. Creio q será um texto bem chato pra quem não estiver atrás disso tudo. Sorry. . 1o passo - A passagem aérea. Sem ela vc quase não consegue vistos. No meu caso eu defini um roteiro que passasse pelas grandes ...

Sao Paulo has become my de facto base in Brazil. It is not the prettiest city nor are there a lot of touristic attractions, but somehow it just worked this way. I spent 2 days here getting myself organized and doing research for Argentina. My original plan was to stay in Brazil for 2-3 more weeks and then go to Argentina. But I wanted to go to ...

... but if it is anything it is how long things take here. Things that used to be at my fingertips (phone, computer, class) are now separate things that I must actually DO. For example, I called home last night, but first I had to get a spare moment to call, then buy a phone card (conversation in Portuguese), find a phone in a mall away from busy/noisy buses (another conversation in portuguese), operate the phone - which works by inserting another, local phone card - and call the ...
