Dry, sunny and rodízio-free — this is the São Paulo Sunday to spend outdoors before the evening chill bites.
The city’s Sunday football round is the talking point in every bar from Vila Madalena to Itaim, with fixtures still being locked in by broadcasters as we went to press.
Brazil’s macro backdrop stays the quiet story for working expats — a steady Real and a high Selic rate keep imported gear pricey but savings accounts attractive.
In one line: market by the MASP, a walk through car-free Paulista, feijoada at lunch, football and pizza after dark.
