I'm originally from Sao Paulo State, situated in Southeast of BRAZIL.
The Brazilian's capital is Brasilia and it's situaded 1000 kms from my QTH.

SAO PAULO state is the major industrial and economic powerhouse of the Brazilian economy. São Paulo city has the largest population, industrial park and economic production of the country. The capital, São Paulo city, is also the largest city in South America (20 million people).

The state of São Paulo has an area of approximately 248,800 km² (95.700 mi²), and a population of about 40 million (21.5% of the population of Brazil), which makes it the most populous country subdivision in the Western Hemisphere.

The climate of São Paulo is tropical to subtropical, altitude being the largest contributor to what variation there is. The capital, São Paulo City, barely outside the tropics in the south of the state and about 800 meters (2,600 ft) above sea level, has daily minima and maxima averaging about 19°C and 28°C (66°F and 82°F) respectively at the warmest time of year and about 12°C and 22°C (54°F and 72°F) respectively at the coolest time of year. Temperatures reach around 33°C (91°F) on the hottest days and fall as low as 5°C (41°F) on the coldest nights. In the low-lying northwest of the state, temperatures average around 4°C (7°F) higher.

São Paulo is the richest state in Brazil. It has the second highest per-capita income (lower than only the Federal District)

Gastronomy and culture are main strengths of this city, nicknamed "the land of the drizzle".^[
