Electrical current: Normally 110 volts. Check it with the front desk of the hotel or the owner of the house or apartment. Transformers to boost the current from 110 volts to 220 volts are available in most good electrical supply stores.The city of Sao Paulo is a melting pot, both cultural and ethnical. It offers the best cuisine, cultural attractions and nightlife. My fave places in Sao Paulo:
Liberdade: Sunday market at the central square Pra?a da Liberdade, shops and Japanese restaurants.
Paulista area: Movie theaters, bookstores, bars, hairdresser, restaurants and shops.
Rua Augusta & Oscar Freire: Many many shops, restaurants, ice-cream parlors and movie theaters.
Tautuape: Bars and shops.
What they have to say about São Paulo:
"So here we are in Sao Paolo and it's just amazing. Industrial, dirty and full of life just the way I like it. I'm definitely coming back here one day to stay a bit longer and learn some of that samba (just joking, I'll never get that with my white ass, but I'm coming back, that's for sure)."
Nick from Franz Ferdinand
