You've Got Mail

I wasn't kidding about my affinity for post cards and thought I'd share my latest aquisition with my dear readers. 

Good friend Mateo Corby has moved to São Paulo after graduation. He's always been a traveling man, and while he's signed up for a yeas in Brazil, he won't have to stay completely put. So far his work with education has taken him all around the country to other cities including Paraty, Rio de Janeiro and Brasilia.
Mateo is ever the lover of trivia, especially that which is geographical in nature. So he shares with you and me a few fun facts about São Paulo. Enjoy.

1 The third largest city in the world, and largest in the Americas, Sao Paulo has about 18 million people.
2 There are over 30 parks and 15 million square meters of green space in the SP.
3 The largest Japanese community outside of Japan can be found here.
