Sao Paulo, een grote, hele grote stad. Niet echt een stad die door veel reizigers wordt aangedaan. Gevaarlijk, zeker als je niet weet waar je heen moet gaan. Het liefst had ik nul minuten in Sao Paulo vertoefd, maar mijn vlucht kwam (en daar kwam ik eigenlijk pas erg laat achter) savonds half twa…

So after a day of work, we freshened up and decided to head out to the Hotel Unique and its phenomenal "Sky Bar". Friends of mine have said that you've got to visit this place while in Sao Paulo, so I was certainly up to it. The taxi ride from our hotel in the Morumbi neighborhood took about 30 min…

I arrived by night bus from Vassouras and went to Santo Andre to meet Brunna and her family.Spent most of Saturday looking around Sao Paulo, still just trying to get over the shee…

Concerning future study abroad trips of this program, there are some changes that I personally would make. I enjoyed the program but there does exist room for improving it. First, I would drop the required amount of personal blogs due each week. 4 was simply took too much time each week, espec…

My second time in Brazil. Nice to be back! This time I’m with my mom and sis. We’re visiting my Brazilian sister, She lives in Sao Paulo. Really nice to see her again! And her family off course.

About and hour and a half before we landed in Sao Paulo, the flight attendants woke us for breakfast.  It was pretty simple -- hot tea, yogurt, and a croissant.  We landed at 8:05am local time (two hours ahead of Central Standard Time in Texas).  Sao Paulo's Airport is a typical co…

Today started out a bit rough due to going out with the work group last night but I managed to do it and be there by 8am to set up my area.  Work hard, play hard.  I did that then came up to the room and slept till 10 when I had to go present. LOL I was a bit nervous but when I …

It was finally here.... exam results day!!! I honestly was not dreading these results as much as I thought I would. Today sort of crept up on me. I got up and began to use the hostels computer. Just before I got them, the power went. Classic. This repeatedly happened over and over again. This beg…

Found superman ina knicker …

Me and Neil hopefully don't get into too much trouble in South America.

Well, this page once had a nice list of suggestions and flowery "thank you´s" for such a great program. But, since it was deleted and I only have twenty minutes before I run out of money, I will just list the highlights of my previous letter, a letter of constructive critisism about…
