Porto Alegre and Sao Paolo, Brazil











My routine in Porto Alegre, Brazil:
wake up - 630am, the day is already very bright and just like Sabah isn't it?
go for breakfast - 7am in the hotel
BAT driver is waiting - 730am
arrive office - 815am as it takes 45 minutes from the hotel in the city to factory / office
start working - 830am... hahaha~~~


Sao Paolo, Brazil:


1. Quite surprise to see salted fish in Municipal Market. All the while I thought only chinese eat salted fish!


2. Lots of tropical fruits in Municipal Market, Sao Paolo e.g. nona, cempedak, the pineapple with longer, thinner, sharper shape, rambutan, banana, mangosteen… what is left is durian!!!!


3. Souvenir not at the tourist attraction, but in the shopping complex

4. Tourist attraction such as Metropolitan Cathedral is amazing, yet the square in front of it is such a mess and smelly with tramps


5. People do not speak englih, not even the restaurant waiter or hotel receptionist… very terrible in Porta Alegre, and slightly better in Sao Paolo, yet still challenges.

6. No iron and iron board in the four stars hotel i stayed. No bath tab, no kettle to boil water for coffee and tea...

7. Conclusion for what is must in the hotel
a) Bath tab
b) Bath gel
c) Iron & iron board
d) Cloth line
e) Kettle for boiling water
f) Hair dryer
g) Information about the city e.g. to do, food, etc
h) Drinking water, i just cant take water directly from the tab even is proven safe to drink
