Holy moly, the painter or grafit/tags dudes almost robbed your apartment!!! Remember, Brazil has the highest homocides records on the planet. Thank God nothing happened.
@@albertoalmeida3424 This is a false narrative. Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, Venezuela, Belize....... all higher homicide rates than Brazil. Brazil just recorded it's lowest murder rate for them in the last 15 yrs. Regarding the attempted robbery, it was a person hired by the hotel to paint the building....crazy story but true.
I am Brazilian, people do not like to listen to, but Brazil is really insafe... sometimes guys you will feel safe, but do not stop looking around... do not bring great values with you
O Brasil tem a cara do mundo. Nas minhas veias corre sangue africano, árabe, português, turco e índio brasileiro. Já estive em outros países e não observei tanta diversidade. O Brasil possui braços para abraçar todas as gentes! Bem vindos: sempre 🥰
Thanks for sharing your video about São Paulo! While safety is a valid concern, it's worth mentioning that São Paulo has crime rates comparable to cities like New York and Los Angeles. That being said, I'm glad to hear that you think São Paulo is a great destination for Black Americans. São Paulo has a rich cultural scene and vibrant Afro-Brazilian culture, making it a fantastic choice for Black travelers. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
Yes, stats are one thing but while we were there it felt a lot more unsafe than NYC. We saw cops draw g7ns on two different sets of ppl (different days) our hotel room was almost broken into and many other things in just 8 days of being there. cool things to do but they have some things to tidy up 2st being tue homelessness....it was sad.
@The Yarbros, I usually avoid staying downtown for that reason. Last time, I stayed in Moema instead. It has comparable prices, and it's close to Ibirapuera Park, as well as amenities and the subway. I would also recommend considering Pinheiros, Vila Madalena, Itaim, Vila Mariana, Vila Clementino, and Jardins as other good options to stay in.
I went to Morumbi in Sao Paulo, around 15 years ago to film a Samba School, I absolutely loved it. On my last day I went on a tour to the Japanese district Liberdade, the largest Japanese community outside Japan.
And also, Liberdade has a large history of black slavery too, before the japonese community shows up. It's full of stories there! (and forgive my english hahaha)
@@Cicero82 Don't be ridiculous! Minas has only 1 kind of cuisine, its own. São Paulo excels in cuisines from all over the world, has the biggest number of restaurants, has more top eateries with prizes, including the 7 best restaurant in the world, 2 of the best pizza places, the only Brazilian bar in the top best of the world and so on!
@@joseluciocorrea1866 Relaxa... Sabemos do poder da gastronomia de SP ... é apenas uma manifestação de um Mineiro que tem orgulho de seu estado...no final das contas é Brasil...vamos ser leves😉 P.s. Moro em Niterói..
@@lenelui7595 Não, o cara foi grosso e falou mentira! Eu não deixo passar quando vejo este besteirol! Mas obrigado por sua resposta, em geral pego leve, mas com mentira sobre minha terra, não!
When I was in Huntsville, AL a week or so ago for a conference, one of our Uber Drivers is originally from Sao Paulo! We had a great time talking about her love for her home city! Thanks for sharing this video!
São Paulo is actually a lot safer than some other brazilian cities that they've been in. But the historic center of the city is dangerous. And on the subway stations that lead to it cell phones and fancy cameras get snached. But the feeling of having your hotel room violated as soon as you get somewhere must be really terrible. It got them on edge.
@@nanasabia At night¿ That place is zombie town already. I had to go to the Santa Casa near Glicério Street with my aunt (she had to have a companion) and she was absolutely F R I G T E N E D with the amount of zombie-like ppl. My luck is that I knew where we were so I could dodge the most shady streets and places, but if you are a lost tourist... welp.
I SO appreciate that you guys take the time to write down names and actually research historical contributors (that we will otherwise never hear about) to the society; especially Africans. You do everything on the spectrum; from high rise touristy stuff, to art alleys to museums-that's the way to really visit a city. I wonder how many U.S. black folks have actually moved there? Using the spatula to hold the chair, priceless 🤣
Thank you Sandra! We try to get what we can, educate along the way, and share the spectrums we experience. There’s a Fb group here - Black Expats in Brazil - that we connected with. Looking forward to digging into their stories!
I have many students from Brazil, most from Sao Paolo. It is great getting a view of the city! I loved the impromptu meetup with the homeboys. It just made me smile. Looking beautiful, April! Thanks for the heads up. (I carry change with me, too, for that reason. Great minds, Detroit!) 🥰💛
I’m so happy to have found your video, as a Brazilian I can say that we love to have visitors and make them feel at home. It’s beautiful to see how you guys treated our home and culture with so much love and respect. God bless you, and welcome home.
Where do I start? The Batman(?) alley, Black bookstore with rows of all Black covers (thrilling!) and the AfroBrazilian museum - whew!! And another foodie heaven - topped off with the MI and FL connections. To say I wish I was there is an understatement - but this was such a vicarious addition to my birthday celebration 🎉 Thank you 😊🥳 More safe travels, peace and blessings can’t wait for what’s next 🥰
Thank u guys, for visiting my home town. I hope u had a good time. I live in the UK, but I love to know that people around the world are appreciating what Brazil has to offer.
I'm curious to know which hotel or Airbnb you stayed at. I'm sorry to hear about the unpleasant situation with the painter. Such incidents should be reported to the property management or Airbnb customer service immediately for appropriate action to be taken. I'm from São Paulo, and this is not a usual incident. I hope the rest of your stay was pleasant.
It was a Selina. We reported it immediately. The guy was at work the next day. We are following up tomorrow actually. We believe he was working with a cleaning woman and the girl at the front desk. Just a theory right now but some other things happened that led me to this theory. We're working on getting insomuch with the right authorities. I am sure they are targeting others.
Looks to be a lovely city indeed. The weather pattern sounds like Melbourne’s weather in the Aussie land. Glad to you say “our people…” Thanks for the video.
São Paulo is a huge 24/7 city where you can find references from all around the world, fine transport system, lots of museums, parks, theatres, malls and the best gastronomy offering the best of each region of Brazil.
This is the city that I was born and raised. Brazilian by birth and American by heart. I know and I've been to every single place you've showed. 20 years living in the US and American Citizen. I left Sao Paulo but Sao Paulo never left me. Greetings from Orlando, Florida
Brazil is very diverse in culture and ethnicities, the south region is predominantly white people, the southeast region is a mixture of all ethnic groups, the northeast region people brown and black, being more common in the state of bahia where most black people are concentrated from brazil, north region native people (indians), central west region is a mixture of south and southeast. The culture is immense, each Brazilian state has its identity, its history, its way of speaking (accent), food. São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are the best known cities in Brazil around the world, it makes sense for people from other countries to visit these cities, but if you want to really get to know Brazil you will have to go deeper and get to know the other regions and fall in love for our country even more.
Great video. Sometimes these non-tourist cities are really interesting in their own way because you know the art, food, culture etc. are there for the locals to enjoy and not just as tourist traps. You really showed the good side of this fascinating city.
I've watched some of your videos and I have to tell you something: The respect and enthusiasm you showed (even with the room window incident) is amazing. So ggo to see my city through your eyes. Thank you! You are the best!
What is great about SESC (part of the Sistema S) is that they operate hundreds of these buildings, vast complexes often equipped with a cinema, theatre, library, art gallery, and a pool area. All of these complexes function as social services, and you do not require a ticket to visit the library or art gallery. However, tickets are necessary to watch their curated cinema sessions and attend their theatre, although these tickets are typically free of charge. Nonetheless, it is advisable to arrive (quite) early to obtain these tickets. (Access to the pool is restricted to members of industry and commerce unions only).
Yo, seeing you just randomly come across 2 brothers like that was beautiful fr, wish I could watch that whole first interaction, it's wholesome af to see people living life like this, I feel like that's how it really is supposed to be, u know
That´s the way they feel. Why would they lie about it ?? Im from Sao Paulo and I feel that way sometimes, imagine being a foreing person first time in the city and someone tries to get in through the window of you hotel room??? Why would they not talk about it ? Why lie?
The Afro Brazil museum it's an amazing place! It's a really powerfull place... the slaver ship exibition hit me hard. I'm really glad that you enjoyed your visit in São Paulo. Another good museum to visit is the "memorial da resistência". There you can find the history about the military dictacroship during 1964-1985 and how our people resisted against the opressioan and imperlism.
glad to see you guys enjoy são paulo this city is a mix of fun,chaos,diversity,happiness,stress and many more all feelings mixed paulistanos are hard work guys but very funny at the same time eventhough the City has its problems it still brazil by the end people will be eating good food,dancing and having fun Cheers
Sou paulistano! Que bom que visitaram nossa cidade. Mas há muitas outras coisas lindas, assim como essas que vocês mostraram. São Paulo é uma megalópole que reverência toda influência. A africana é uma delas, temos outras tantas: italianos, portugueses, espanhóis, armênios etc… Obrigado por mostrarem uma pequena parte desta grande cidade! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thanks for another great video! I can’t wait to bop around Brazil. In 2019, I visited Brasilia which was cool. I am excited to visit Bahia. Do you remember the name of the dish that you were eating 12:37? It looks like Nigerian moi moi which is made out of black-eyed peas/beans.
As a Sāo Paulo girl, born and raised, I know this city like the back oh my hand. Been living in Australia for several years now, though. But I go back to visit once a year. Apparently you guys didnt visit my favorite suburb - Liberdade, the Japanese suburb.Believe it or not, Sāo Paulo is the largest Japanese city outside of Japan. Liberdade has a myriad of different shops and Japanese restaurants from the 'westernised' ones to all the way up to the top notch authentic ones. I watched your video on Gramado & Canela too. Was impressed by all you showed us and talked about. Never been there. These cities are definitely now on my bucket list. You both loved the Italian food from the South, didn't you? Sāo Paulo has some serious Italian food as well, especially in Bela Vista - aka as Bexiga, and Mooca. These are the most notorious Italian suburbs. Then we've got the Korean part of the city in Bom Retiro suburb. Again, lots of traditional Korean restaurants some of which many paulistas have not heard of. You gotta dig in in order to find those. Or get to know some of the locals who will gladly recommend the great ones. As you can tell I'm a food lover. Been lucky enough to having grown up with the best food one could possibly get by my mom and dad. They're both former professional chefs.Your videos are infectiously good. Will be binge watching them for awhile. Cheers!
🏙 This Sao Paolo travel vlog is a must-watch for anyone who loves exploring new cities! 🤩 I am a fan now, and I can't wait to see more videos from this talented videographer. 🤝
Nice video guys!! The Brazilian people are super friendly even if they don't speak the language! I'm from são Paulo and I love to see the tourist opinion about the city!!
We're (my family) actually heading to Sao Paulo on Saturday. We've been traveling full-time for 3.5 years and are excited to hit the city. We're traveling with a 4 year old so we need to be a little more cautious but I'm still really excited
I enjoyed this video on São Paulo you guys. You hit a lot of general points. São Paulo is a major hub for people coming from all other cities and states looking for work and opportunity. I believe it's the most diverse of all Brazilian cities. Looking forward to see more about your experiences in Brasil. Also you'll find a lot more English is spoken in SP than in other cities. But, Paulistas are not known to be as warm and friendly as Cariocas (people from Rio de Janeiro) and definitely not as friendly as people in the Northeast such as Bahia, which I'm sure you'll find out.
Thanks. The diversity is an interesting aspect of the city to dive into, especially the Liberdade neighborhood. It felt more guarded but you’re right about the spectrum of friendliness. We experienced more openness in Rio and now that we’re in Bahia, we’re loving it.
@@leninhasantiago3396realmente, não que as outra pessoas dos outros estados não são trabalhadoras, mas em SP é a cidade do trabalho, pessoas vem para cá de outros estados, justamente para isso. Então infelizmente acaba ficando assim também pela falta de tempo, eu trabalho de plantão e muitas vezes quero conhecer mais lugares da minha cidade, mas a caseira não deixa, e a inflação, você gasta muito para sair com poucas coisas do mercado, mas deve ser gratificante ganhar em dólares e gastar em real, moro em uma cidade do lado de SP, porque quanto mais perto desses bairros mais caro fica, então muitas pessoas moram em cidades vizinhas e trabalham na capital, ficam cansadas no transporte lotado. Então dependendo da classe social você tem visões diferentes
Good information. SP is violent? Yes. Diferently from others cities in the world? Not exactly. Just for information, I am 59 years old and I had just 2 hard situations and both were in the USA (NYC and Dallas). It happens.
It's a big city with big city problems. We report what we see and what we go through. Context is great. Yes, Dallas and NYC are sketch in some areas too but they aren't what this video is about.
Thanks for make this wonderful video about my City ! Yeah Sampa baby ! I was born in Moóca , East side , when I tell ppl in USA, Sampa it’s bigger then NY they tell me I’m insane and I guarantee you haven’t been in 30% of the city base on your vid , cheers, keep up this amazing work you are doing man ! To informe ppl all around the world how those city’s it’s !
É a segunda vez que vejo um vídeo de vocês. Não dá pra entender o inglês de vocês, mas acho que estão falando bem do Brasil. Obrigado pelo vídeo. Vocês são muito simpáticos.
hey. I am a brazilian and I live in São Paulo. i really liked the video because shows your point of view and show how the city is without filter. a hug from Brazil❤❤❤💯
Philly Dom got you guys beat by quite a stretch when it comes to arriving in São Paulo and telling us what the Megapolis of São Paulo and by extension Brazil, is all about. Anyway, excellent video. Actually, São Paulo is so huge that you can get several vloggers to enter and each will take away and present something different. Thanks for showing some very interesting aspects about the largest city in the Americas. Very informative. Enjoy.
Yeah, different eyes in a huge city... definitely nit the story if Brazil....thats a comprehensive piece that were plodding through now. Interesting city though. Definitely not at all what I expected.
I Lived in São Paulo for 23 years. São Paulo city is a city where people work and make money 💰. The weekend they travel to the country side and the beach ⛱️.
Damn what a coincidence, I love trying São Paulo cafe shops, I found London Coffee Station last month, they're so good, one of the best coffees in the city, now I'm seeing it here, you guys know how to choose your places.
We brazilians do not consider ourselves X community or Y community ,etc... We ALL consider ourselves simply BRAZILIANS. We are and feel really MIXED. 👍
Your wonderful channel bro! Sampa is the best city in Brazil, believe me. Lots to see and experience! And I liked the end of this video, where you talk about my beloved neighborhood where I was born and raised, Bela Vista. Or for those more intimate, the Bexiga neighborhood! Come more often! Big hug!
It is very interesting to hear the vision that a foreigner has of our country. It's really cool that you felt that identification, recognized yourself here. Racism has been a crime here in Brazil for some decades now, as well as other types of discrimination by gender or origin, for example, we also have many public policies, such as social and racial quotas that have been having an effect, this type of social policy has considerably increased the number of blacks with higher education, in the long run this will help to reduce social inequality. P.s.: Public (free) primary and secondary education in Brazil is of low quality compared to private education, while public universities (which are also free) are of excellent quality, but the tests you need to take to be approved to enter these Universities only students who studied in private and very expensive schools were able to enter, unfortunately the vast majority of Afro-descendants are low-income (this is a legacy from the era of slavery, because in Brazil the abolition was carried out extremely unfairly, simply putting it on the street. Remembering that Brazil was the last country to abolish slavery. We still need many, many years to end this inequality, changes are happening, there are many people in the fight, denouncing and not accepting crimes of racism, it is a start, we need to keep advancing for justice and equality. The most beautiful thing about Brazil is the diversity of peoples and cultures. (This text was translated by translator app, sorry for any possible mistakes)
Eu aprecio sua comunicação e honestidade. Estou olhando para a corrida aqui e tentando entender. Você acabou de me ajudar muito. Obrigado. Não há um lugar na Terra que os colonizadores não tenham bagunçado. Obrigado mais uma vez pela profunda reflexão. Além disso, estamos amando o Brasil e suas pessoas e terras maravilhosas .... e comida 😄✌🏾
@@TheYarbros I'm glad I helped in some way. I hope you are enjoying your stay here, yes the food is amazing, modesty aside. Be sure to visit Salvador in the state of Bahia, the Afro culture there is very much alive.
Belo Horizonte capital de minas gerais é considerada por muitos brasileiros de outras regiões e estrangeiros ,como a comida mais gostosa do brasil,venha experimentar a culinária mineira
you came in the end of summer, normal be hot and need some FPS protection haha Glad to see you guys enjoyied our city, you're welcome always. Thanks for sharing this footage, and i'm happy to see you happy here. Best regards
I loved your channel, this is the first video I've watched, and it was excellent, I live in Brazil, I've never been to São Paulo, but I have little knowledge about it, and in fact I think that Sampa has more inhabitants than New York, Sampa is currently the largest in the Americas. I wish you success, and Welcome to Brazil! amei o canal de vocês, este é o primeiro vídeo que assisto, e ficou excelente, moro no Brasil nunca fui em São Paulo, mas tenho pouco conhecimento sobre, e na verdade acho que Sampa tem mais habitantes do que Nova Iorque, Sampa atualmente é a maior das Américas. desejo sucesso a vocês, e sejam Bem Vindos ao Brasil!
THERE ARE A LOT OF WONDERFUL CITIES WITH 1 MILLION OR HALF MILLION POPULATION ONE 1 HOUR FROM SÃO PAULO AND PEOPLE LIVE THERE AND TRAVEL TO WORK IN SÃO PAULO EVERY DAY MONDAY TO FRIDAY.
Thanks for uploading this. I spent 2 college years there in the mid 70's. Loved it! The food was my fav. thing. And the music. But that was a generation or so ago.....especially re: the music.
About the incident with the painter , you should complain to the doorman. It’s not usual to have that sort of incident. Usually the building manager (síndico) notifies every apartment with a call or message people will be working on that day and you should close curtains or windows for privacy and if they need them open to do any work they notify the time they will do so. My building is under some work now and they send me messages everyday so I just don’t wake up with a strange dude hanging on my window 😂
Yarbros, I just got addicted to your awesome produced video and the good vibes that come from the deep of the heart! I lived in Sao Paulo for years, and this is the first video that trully represent Sampa. Faltou o Minhocao. #amosaopaulo
Thanks so much for showing and traveling in my city, where I was born and raised, love it so much, and thats why I love NYC too, and planning to live for a while there! Sao Paulo is one of the greatest cities in the world to eat and meet new good restaurants, I cant even visit them all because there's a LOT!
remember to drink a ton of coconut water, it hydrates better especially if you will walk outside in the sun a lot. if you can't drink coconut water, always keep a whole water bottle at least
