When i was in the UK two canadians guys asked me where i'm from,i told them Brazil one guy was surprised and the other asked me almost certainly if i was from SP which i was
So it got me wondered how is SP portrayed outside of Brazil.
We all know whats your idea of RJ its but never SP

i just think of sp as like a racist terrone province like the southern states

1 in 1000 foreigners will recognize what a SP is

a utopia. every single american dreams of being able to enter sao paulo some day

Not true btw

It's true. Their whole knowledge of Brazil is Rio and the Amazon Rainforest. You met a rare person who probably had prior experience with Brazilians

literally nobody knowns there are areas of brazil that aren't endless amazonian jungles of coastal cities full of mixed race people.

the idea there is a slightly more temperate state with (mostly) white people would be quite a shock to the average westerner

>validation seeking thread
you disgust me

Kek foreigners literally think that Rio is in the Amazon and stuff like this

>>212968223 (OP)

maybe in 2010 but life isn't like this anymore moron

literally *everyone* knows south brazil is a paradise now. it's still undervalued because it takes time for people to pick up their lives and move

SP its not south brazil

Most people would just say "Sao Paulo? Is that the capital, or is the capital Rio?"
