 Hello - new member from Brazil Hello everyone.
How are you doing? I've been in Istanbul only for 3 months and already in love with the city. I am from Brazil, from a city called São Paulo. I've heard about this forum only a couple of weeks ago. Living currently in the European side and looking forward to meet you.
Tks,
Felipe

Welcome. Imagine there is little difference between Sao Paulo and Istanbul, both overcrowded chaotic places with corrupt government and big economic disparity, little less of the Samba here though.

Welcome Felipe!
I have a Brazilian friend who also moved here 3 months ago with her Portuguese husband and their kids.
If U feel homesick or just wanna speak Portuguese, I can put U in touch.
Take care!

Well, it is a great city, with a lot of places to go out and postcard views wherever you look. It is a Sao Paulo with beautiful views and great places to go out....amazing...

Oi!! Welcome! Another Brazilian for Istanbul! Popular place for Brazilian ladies and their Turkish husbands - they love it here. Same traditional values with less crime.
So what you doing over here then??

Fenerbahce is not doins samba in the past games, eventhough there is a lot of Brazilians there, I still prefer Galatasaray (I know, a brazilian supporting Galatasaray is strange, but I am crazy afterall).
