Get a Bilhete Único card at any metro station, reload it. Transfers are much cheaper than single fares, big savings.
Ibirapuera Park is a peaceful escape, great for morning runs and picnics. Mix of modern and old architecture everywhere.
Feijoada and coffee were highlights, locals were friendly. January humidity was brutal, pack breathable clothes.
Rain ruined some plans but saved money by hitting indoor markets. Service in restaurants can be slow on weekends.
Skip pricey Paulista eateries, walk two blocks into side streets or try Vila Madalena for authentic, cheaper meals.
