Mercure Apartments Sao Paulo Nortel

Had a horrible flight on United Airlines as everything had a cost. Went to bathroom during the flight and there was someone in the small room changing his clothes. They didn't lock the door so I tried to enter, eeeeek!!! Fat, hairy man naked!!! I returned to my seat without relieving myself. <br>I got to see the Amazon river at sunrise and took pictures. We ...

... stop being wanky now. That was my audition for Empire for the day. Any factual errors I apologise, I&#8217;m working from memory here and have no IMDb to back me up on the research. Ditto the bits where I stop being Journalist Susan and stray into Blogging Susan &#8211; obviously I&#8217;d tidy this up for publication. I&#8217;ll continue to warn you if I feel the need to go off on one like that again, you can skip it.<br>In other news, I am very intimidated by ...

Sao Paulo is a bit rubbish. That's no huge surprise- even Brazillians of pretty much every other town will tell you that.<br><br>Our travelling went okay. Ferry from ilha grande was fine. And then our bus from Angra to SP was over an hour late in arriving. At that point we were very glad we hadn't gone for an overnight bus with tight connection in SP. But we took the opportunity to sample more local pasties- chicken good, meat okay, cheese ...

... por lá.<br><br>Em El Calafate existem alguns hoteis do mesmo nível do que escolhi para Ushuaia, aproximadamente US$ 50 por diária. O interessante é que quase a metade deles estão fechados até Setembro ou Outubro, o que indica fortemente que o turismo diminui bastante nessa época do ano. Essa é outra região onde devo pegar muito frio.<br><br>Os preparativos andaram bastante, agora estou mais tranquilo. Já separei um espaço num arm ...

We arrived in Sao Paulo ruined from the overnight bus. Our room wasnt ready, so we laid on the floor in the TV room and passed out. Woke up late in the afternoon and rushed out to explore the city. We didnt expext alot from Sao Paulo, so maybe thats why it impressed us so much, but we really like this city!! Its busy, noisy, but still suprisingly keen. We spent the night drinking at the hostel with a few others ...

With great sadness and a bit of hangover, David and I left Rio de Janeiro they day after the Karnival was finished. As usual, there was a lot of discussion about the route to follow with plenty of different alternatives and means of transportation. In the end, we decided to stop one night in Sao Paulo in our way to the ...

Embarquei para São Paulo a fim de fazer um curso de facilitador de um treinamento de liderança para jovens e adolescentes. Entrei no site: http://www.leadertreks.com/ para saber mais informações. Este treinamento é pioneiro aqui no Brasil. Gostei muito e fiquei ainda mais empolgado por esta oportunidade que Deus havia me dado. O missionário Alberto Malta me hospedou na casa dele. O ...

... Enquanto isso, agilize os guias de viagem. Eu importei (pelo menos tentei) a maioria, direto do site do Lonely Planet. Demorou pra caraio pra chegar, mas chegou. Os q eu comprei na Amazon ainda estão a caminho, não devem chegar a tempo, então vou pra Australia e Nova Zelandia na raça, infelizmente. Livrei-me (me senti um religioso escrevendo isso) de todas as pendências q vinha enrolando há muitos meses: dentista, uns martelinhos de ouro no carro ...

I arrived again in Sao Paulo, cutting short my time in Rio so that I could go to a futbol match here. My friend Thiago (CHICO!!!!!) met me at the airport. The rush hour traffic in Sao Paulo was horrible- imagine rush hour in a city of 15+ million people! We went to his Aunt and Uncle´s house where they served us dinner. I was able to understand about 10% of their conversation in Portugese, but I could follow the main ideas and topics. The ...

... somewhat understand people if they speak slowly enough, but it is really different from Spanish - duh. However, NO ONE in Sao Paulo really speaks English. I went to a number of locations yesterday (a newsstand, an outside sandwich place that sells huge bottles of beer for the equivalent of one dollar - 2 reales, McDonalds for a Coca Cola Light [not the same as Diet Coke, sad sad sad] and a pharmacy because I somehow forgot razors and a toothbrush) and had to order ...
