A few days in the Sao Paulo to wrap up this trip to Brazil. In a world of dense urban spaces it doesn’t get much more dense-urban than this.

The city is going through a heat-wave of sorts – the violence between Police and local gangs has escalated with police stations and government buildings being attacked. I’m tempted to say that it there is an Escape from New York edge to the city, but for the locals its business as usual.

Tonight’s driver has promised a Paulista’s view of the city, lets see if he delivers.
