What to consider 

Even though São Paulo is a very international city, don’t expect everyone to know English! Learn the basic expressions to comunicate and to get around. And also, probably good to know is that Sampas, as the locals call themselves, are very touchy. What first can seem a little weird, is just the locals trying to be friendly and welcoming. São Paulo is a huge city in South America. So, while walking around be aware of your surroundings and don’t walk around with too many valuable belongings. There are also some neighborhoods that you should avoid, especially at night. Find out in advance which areas are recommendable to stay at and what security pecuations there are. But no worries, especially in the tourist areas, you will feel safe!
