These Brazilian cities are always unbelievable, so many towers and so dense .
Looks like a nice city with lots of green, but the towers don't look so good.
7.5/10

This city has alot in common with San Francisco and Honolulu...a high concentration of Japanese....I. believe it is the highest outside of Japan. Clean and industrious.

There is nothing as sexy as a Japanese Brazilan.

Very impressive when you arrive at night from Sao Paulo...it looks like Manhattan.

It's funny how I mentioned "Sexy" Japanese Brazilians...Today at a cocktail party I met the neatest sexiest brazilian japanese ever. Big warm smile. I think everybody should be reborn as a Japanese Brazilian. The best of both worlds.

With my luck I will probably come back as a corn fed republican red kneck from some southern US city.
