How guetto? Not at all. Two years ago I could have given you a real raw description of what surrounded me in City Heights (my old neighborhood). A REAL HOOD with liquor stores at almost every corner and cars bumping the finest gangsta rap out there.
Currently, I'm up here in the boonies. A real quiet community in North County San Diego.
The facts: 4 Mexican households and about 25 cribs with white folks in them which complete this here "hood".
The freeway is a couple hundred feet away so the real world is within reach in only a matter of minutes.
I keeps it real, if you know who I'm reffering to. And yeah, we still growing (it) all around, I mean this enourmous Mexican community.
Our tentacles will keep extending through this country.
Don't discriminate yourself, affiliate and integrate...

Mine's a bit boring. Most people here are Brazilian white (we don't employ the one drop rule, or whatever it is that people call it now), probably around 95% or more. No Mexicans, no Chinese, almost no black people.

it surely doesn't look like Brazil at all, eh? just kidding... SJC is 80 km away from Sao Paulo. A good city, close enough to Sao Paulo, close enough to the beach, close enough to the mountains.... and home to the mighty "Sao Jose EC".... actually, I think this is one of the only brazilian cities where the local rugby team is much more capable of winning stuff than the local football side...
A town near me was recently in the paper for forming a vigilante group armed with "a machete" (yes, just the one) to chase a rapist out of the area... really not sure whether that's something to be proud of.
No surprises it was in the Daily Mail

I had no idea of that! moving from Careca's hometown to Roque Junior's... that's what I call moving in the right direction!
And aside from Fabiola Molina, I don't know any of the other people on that list......

I'm actually thinking about going to Rio next winter. I had like an hour long chat with some venture capitalist that owns Swansea City at LAX the other day and he TOTALLY convinced me to go to Rio when I'm still young.
Funniest part, I mentioned "football" and he's like "I own a football club... you've probably never heard of them though." And I'm just like "Obviously you have no idea who you're dealing with right now." It was pretty sweet; kinda wish I got to chat with him a little longer actually.
Of course it's not, the whole idea behind the favelas is wrong, getting the poor people separated from the rich, and all that. But there's a sense of community in there that's absent from most other places in Brazil.Filipower;2638841 said:
I said it to people before, I'm not sure I've posted it here... Rio is a very nice place to visit, but not the place I'd like to live in. Make sure you visit all the tourist spots, but don't miss the Lapa nightclubs. If I was still there I could show you some places, but I'm sure you'll do fine. Just don't do a Ronaldo, and you'll actually want to be back for more....ShiftyPowers;2638846 said:
