20 Things to do in São Paulo, Brazil Travel Guide
Visiting Sao Paolo was a bit intimidating. We weren't really sure what to expect prior to visiting South America's largest city, however, we found that in that midst of the crowds and chaos there were cool pockets filled with parks, street art, and an abundance of restaurants. For this video, we also had two of our Brazilian friends join us and they were able to provide a unique window into the city. This travel guide will showcase 20 things to do in Sao Paulo, Brazil:

Our visit São Paulo travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including a food guide (best restaurants and street food), top museums and São Paulo at night.

20 Things to do in São Paulo, Brazil Travel Guide and Top Attractions Video Transcript:
Within the park grounds you’ll find the Afro-Brasil Museum, which is a contemporary museum that looks at African culture and influence in Brazilian society. And not too far from there, you’ll come across the Museum of Modern Art.
Batman Alley is located in Vila Madalena and it has become a popular tourist and Instagram spot. Apparently the place gets its name because the first piece of graffiti to go up was one of Batman back in the 1980s.
If you’re a football lover, this is a place you won’t want to miss.
Being the foodies that we are, we couldn’t skip the Municipal Market. Here you can find exotic fruits, fresh vegetables, meats, spices and even restaurants. We went there right around the lunch hour to try the famed mortadella sandwich.
From there, we visited Sao Paulo Cathedral. We only learned this after our visit, but there’s a crypt you can visit.
Next up we headed to the neighbourhood of Liberdade, which has the largest Japanese community in the world outside of Japan. We decided to hit up a sushi buffet for some food!
That evening we met up with our Brazilian friends, who took us out for a night on the town.
That morning we visited Pinacoteca do Estado, which is a cool art museum that focuses on works by Brazilian artist or works with Brazilian subject matter.
After that we headed over to Parque da Luz. This park is right next to the museum and it has a lot of interesting sculptures scattered about.
Sao Paulo’s Teatro Municipal first opened in 1911. The Martinelli building is 30 stories high and it was the first skyscraper in South America.
And that’s a quick look at how we spent 2 days in Sao Paulo. We hope you enjoyed this guide and that it gave you some ideas on how to tackle South America’s largest city. As always, if you have any other suggestions of fun things to do in Sao Paulo, feel free to share those with us in the comments below.

Visiting Easter Island Travel Guide (Isla de Pascua - Rapa Nui)
Sometimes a once in a lifetime opportunity presents itself and you take it. Traveling to Easter Island (known locally as Rapa Nui and in Spanish as Isla de Pascua) was something we never thought possible in our lifetimes. However, when a short-time discounted airfare was available, we snapped it up and with an opportunity to explore the island slowly, we spent time hiking, walking and renting a vehicle to cover as much as the island as possible. The following Easter Island travel video is our best attempt to document our day to day adventure in the form of a series of vlogs from Day 1 to Day 7. We feel that if you're going to experience the best Easter Island has to offer you had better give yourself a 4 to 7 days.
Our visit Easter Island travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including all of the various moai statues, beaches and best locations for sunset and sunrise photos. We also cover off-the-beaten-path activities you won't find in a typical Easter Island tourism brochure.

Visiting Easter Island Travel Documentary (Isla de Pascua - Rapa Nui) Polynesia Video Transcript:
After close to a month travelling around Chile, Sam and I hopped on a plane to visit Easter Island, known locally as Rapa Nui. This was the closest we were ever going to get to this remote speck in the ocean, which also happens to be the southeasternmost point of the Polynesian Triangle. We gave ourselves one full week to explore Isla de Pascua, and what follows is a travel guide of our time there. We hiked ancient volcanoes, stood face to face with the moai, watched spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and road tripped around the island while wild horses ran alongside. It was an incredible week and we hope this video will inspire you to plan your own visit to Easter Island.
Rano Kau is 324 meters tall and it is located on the southwestern tip of Rapa Nui. We hiked all the way from town, and because of it’s gradual incline, we found it to be a relatively easy activity. That being said, we would recommend doing it early in the morning, since there were very few shaded areas along the way.
Orongo is a village and ceremonial site located just past the Rano Kau Crater. Unfortunately, it started pouring rain shortly after we reached the site, so we didn’t get to visit, but we made plans to return later that week.
That evening we made our way into Hanga Roa to watch the sun set from the harbour. There were lots of surfers out on the water, and the waves kept rolling in and crashing against the rocks.
After the market we took a walk to Ahu Tahai, which is a ceremonial complex that holds 3 different ‘ahus’ or platforms with moai. Perhaps the most famed of the three is Ahu Ko Te Riku, which stands out from the rest because it has restored eyes.
Having already visited Ahu Tahai by day, we still made it a point to come in the late afternoon.
Rano Raraku is yet another volcano crater found on the island, and it is also the site of the quarry that supplied the stone for the hundreds of moai that can be found on the island. The quarry is believed to have been in use for a span of 500 years up until the early 18th century when activity ceased. It would also appear that this site was abandoned in a rush since many of the moai here are unfinished.
After seeing the moai scattered on the slopes of the volcano, we took a little detour and hiked into the crater. We also spotted wild horses and a few moai inside the crater, which was quite unexpected.
From there we continued on to Ahu Tongariki for a quick visit. This site is home to 15 moai, making it the biggest ‘ahu’ on the island.
The best place to catch the sunrise in Rapa Nui is at Ahu Tongariki. We made the drive in the dark and we arrived just as the sky was beginning to show it’s soft morning colours.
One of the best decisions we made on our trip was to rent a car so that we would have the ability to explore all of Easter Island.
And just like that our week on Easter Island was up! Rapa Nui is one of the most fascinating places we have ever visited, and we loved getting to explore every inch of the island.
This is part of our Travel in Easter Island Rapa Nui (Isla de Pascua) series.

Travel Tips for First Time Travelers with Hey Nadine Video Transcript:
Welcome back to our channel. We have Nadine joining us from the channel Hey Nadine and if you've been watching travel content on YouTube you've probably seen her stuff because she has been making videos for a long time. She is our travel expert today. We've both been traveling for many years and that means we've made several mistakes along the way some of them sillier than others. So today we thought we would share 10 common mistakes that first time travelers make and how you can avoid them.
So first tip before you head out is to contact your bank and let them know your bank and your credit card because it could get blocked otherwise. Another mistake I would say is booking parts of your trip in the wrong order. Packing proper footwear and packing for multiple seasons and seasonally.
I've made this mistake several times & I don't seem to learn. But often times I forget to look up how to get from the airport to my hotel.
Tipping. I another big rookie mistake when I'm in a country and I'm sitting down at a restaurants I didn't look up the tipping etiquette of that country because it varies widely per country.
Another tip for me would be to always grab your hotels business card before you walk out of the door because if you're a little distracted like I am you may start wandering around and not know how to get back.
Unrealistic expectations of your physical fitness.I think another mistake a lot of first time travelers make is underestimating distances between two places.
Small change. Small change especially in like a cash based place is always so important to have on you and the problem is that most ATMs give you the biggest bills.
Okay I think another common mistake is only doing what your guidebook says. Buying souvenirs on day 1 and carrying them around with you.
I think another very common travel mistake is planning an itinerary that is just way too busy.
Laundry. So if you're going for a trip longer than a week chances are you're going to be doing laundry.
And last but not least I feel like we should mention travel insurance because if you can afford to book a trip you can afford travel insurance.
I hope you enjoyed those travel tips for first time travelers so you don't make the same mistakes we made. So thank you Nadine for coming over to our channel and sharing travel advice with us. Go check out her channel. She has some really cool travel videos and lots of very informational travel tips.

Havanna Cafe: Eating the best Alfajores in Buenos Aires, Argentina Travel Video Transcript:
Havanna! So today we're going to Havanna to try Alfajores. This is like the it name in Argentina when you're looking to try alfajores. And the ones we're going to be eating are quite different from the ones we've tried elsewhere in South America. So let's just stop talking about it and go in and try them. We're hungry people. Come along.
Check this out. It was actually a little bit embarrassing ordering this because the waitress was looking at me like, really? You want to try all of them? There is six of them. So we kind of look like little pigs. Well, we are. If we're doing a taste test we have to try every single variety. And they have six at this cafe. So we had to do it. Had to be done.
But, anyways, um, what is an alfajor? I guess that is the big question. So it is basically like two crumbly cookies that are smooshed together, usually with dulce de leche or some kind of different filling. And then they can covered in like icing sugar or chocolate or meringue. So it is a really nice treat. You can have it for breakfast, in my opinion, I would totally eat these for breakfast. Or as a little snack. It is actually a really popular snack with kids. This is what they take to school.
So an interesting fun fact. Argentine's consume the most alfajores per capita and total of anywhere else in the world. It is our favorite. They're considered to be the most popular snack among school children and also adults. So you get hooked early on and it is a lifelong fun addiction.
So why did we choose Havanna to go get our Alfajores? Because this is the most established name in the whole country. The company was founded in 1948 in a nearby city called Mar Del Plata. And as I was saying earlier these are my favorite brand of alfajores. This is what I think of when I remember sweet snacks of my childhood.
Okay, so we are going to start with the classic. This one is filed with dulce de leche and then bathed in chocolate.
Let's see that. So there you go. Two cookies with dulce de leche in the middle.
Okay, next up this one is dulce de leche and it is covered with meringue. This is my favorite.
Alright, next up this one is filled with jam. And oh my goodness this is also meringue. This makes me very happy. It is your lucky day. Lucky girl. Okay, so I'll cut it in half Oh, wow. That looks like a jam. Have a look in there. So, yeah, that is a dark jam. Let's see.
Mmmmm. Okay. This is called membrillo and it is a quince jam which isn't really very popular fruit in North America but you'll find it everywhere here in Argentina.
Oh, look. I don't know if this one is meringue or if it is white chocolate. Oh, it is white chocolate. So this one is the one that has nuts. This has Brazil nuts and walnuts. Oh, look at that. I think it has dulce de leche inside. This one may be my favorite.
Okay, so let's talk about price point and how much did these cost individually. So these are really affordable. You're basically looking at 19 Pesos. Actually that was the price for every single one of them. So that is roughly about a $1.25 to $1.30 US. So really cheap. You can come in here and if you want to be greedy as us order all six and you can get them for under 10 bucks. Yeah, they are actually the most expensive alfajores you can get in the whole city. Like are much cheaper brands if you're looking for something a bit more affordable. That is true but you won't find too many that better quality than these ones. Yeah.
This is part of our Travel in Argentina series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Argentine culture, Argentine arts, Argentine foods, Argentine religion, Argentine cuisine and Argentine people.

Yokohama Street Food Tour | Japan's Largest Chinatown!
In this video we take you on a Yokohama street food tour through Japan's largest Chinatown!
Yokohama (横浜) is the second largest city in Japan by population and it's a quick train ride from Tokyo, making it the perfect destination for a day trip. This is a port city that sits on the shores of Tokyo Bay, and while it has lots to offer in terms of attractions and sightseeing, we were drawn here by the food.
The cool thing about eating in Yokohama Chinatown (横浜中華街) is that you get a unique blend of Chinese food and Japanese food, plus you can also choose between street food and restaurants.
To get to Yokohama we took the Toyoko Line from Shibuya Station (渋谷駅). If you get on the express train you should get to Yokohama in 30 minutes, but we accidentally got on the slow train so it ended up taking over an hour - don't make our mistake!
Here's a list of the foods we tried on our visit to Yokohama Chinatown (横浜中華街):
- Steamed Buns (sweet beef with egg and onions) - ¥500
- Shiu Mai (shrimp and pork dumplings) - ¥380
- Sesame Balls (filled with sesame paste) - ¥310
- Egg Tarts - ¥180
- Spicy Ramen Soup - ¥800
- Mapo Tofu with Rice - ¥1200
- Steamed Panda Buns (matcha flavoured) - ¥320
- Bubble Tea - ¥350
Our one piece of advice for visiting this place is to come hungry! If you want to make the most of your very own Yokohama street food tour, you'll need a big appetite because there is so much food to try. We barely scratched the surface.

Yokohama Street Food Tour | Japan's Largest Chinatown! Transcript:
Alright good afternoon guys. It is time for another street food video. Today we're going to be taking you guys to Yokohama (横浜). It is 30 minutes south from Shibuya station (渋谷駅). So yeah a bit of an excursion for food. Yeah, first time leaving Tokyo and we've brought our appetites.
I didn't really explain why we're going to Yokohama but this is basically home to the largest Chinatown (横浜中華街) in all of Japan and also one of the largest Chinatown's in all of Asia. So perfect place for street food. We're going to have a mix of Japanese street food and Chinese street food.
We have made it to Yokohama Chinatown (横浜中華街). It took us a while to get here.
Yokohama street Chinatown (横浜中華街) is a great place for street food but if street food is not your thing you also have a whole bunch of Chinese restaurants to choose from and a lot of them are buffets so you pay a set fee and then you can eat as much as you want so definitely lots of food options here in Yokohama. This has been great so far. I mean we've only eaten at a couple of places and I'm already loving it.
We have now turned down one of the little side streets here in Chinatown (横浜中華街) and what I find really interesting is that it is not just all street food and restaurants. Down the little side streets we're also seeing like Chinese supermarkets. You have like massage parlors focusing on Chinese medicine and reflexology and you've got souvenir shops. I mean places to buy decorations for your home. And it is just so pretty to walk down these side streets as well because you have the red paper lanterns and the lights are starting to come on because it is late in the afternoon.
I hope you enjoyed our little street food tour of Chinatown (横浜中華街) here in Yokohama (横浜). We had a really fun time just eating so much food. It was delicious. Yeah. I'm leaving here stuffed and I don't feel like we spent that much money. No. That was cool. If you're planning to travel to Japan and you're going to be in Tokyo it is super easy to get to Yokohama (横浜). We'll see you guys in the next video. Bye for now.

Comida Callejera en Yokohama | El Barrio Chino Más Grande de Japón
En este video los llevamos a comer comida calljera en Yokohama, el barrio chino más grande de Japón.
Yokohama es la segunda ciudad más grande de Japón por población y queda cerca de Tokio, así que es un lugar que uno puede facilmente visitar en un día. Esta es una ciudad portuaria que se encuentra a las orillas de la Bahía de Tokio. Yokohama tiene muchas lugares de interés para el turista, pero nosotros visitamos más que nada por la comida callejera.
En Yokohama Chinatown, uno puede encontrar una mezcla de comida china y comida japonesa, y uno también puede elegir entre restaurantes o comida callejera.
Para llegar a Yokohama tomamos la Línea Toyoko desde la Estación Shibuya. Si uno se sube al tren expreso, es un viaje de solo 30 minutos, pero nosotros nos subimos al tren lento, y nos tomó más de una hora en llegar - no cometan nuestro error.
Ahora, aquí esta la lista de todo lo que comimos en el Barrio Chino de Yokohama:
- Baozi (pan al vapor con carne, huevo y cebolla) - ¥ 500
- Shaomai (relleno con camarón y carne de cerdo) - ¥ 380
- Bolas de sésamo (rellenas con pasta de sésamo) - ¥ 310
- Tartas de huevo - ¥ 180
- Sopa ramen picante - ¥ 800
- Mapo tofu con arroz - ¥ 1200
- Boazi en forma de panda (sabor a matcha) - ¥ 320
- Té de burbujas - ¥ 350
Nuestro único consejo para este lugar es que vengan con hambre -hay mucha comida callejera para probar en Yokohama.

Comida Callejera en Yokohama | El Barrio Chino Más Grande de Japón:
¡Hola! Somos Samuel y Audrey, una pareja de vloggers y viajeros de Canadá. En este canal de viajes compartimos nuestros vlogs de viajes y comida mientras recorremos el mundo. Nuestro viaje más reciente fue a Japón donde pasamos 3 meses viajando por el país y visitando lugares como: Osaka, Tokio, Kioto, Nara, Nikko, Takayama, Yokohama, Odaiba y Takao. Durante nuestra estadía visitamos una mezcla de ciudades y pueblitos, disfrutamos de la comida callejera japonesa, y nos alojamos en lugares únicos que ahora vamos a compartir con ustedes en este canal. Nuestro viaje a Japón fue inolvidable y hasta ahora es uno de nuestros paises favoritos que hemos llegado a conocer. Si quieren ver más videos de Japón en un futuro, dejennos saber en los comentarios que lugares y experiencias les gustaría ver en este canal de viajes. ¡Hasta la próxima!
