Curitiba is thousands of kilometers from north-east of Brazil and the difference is abysmal as the distance. From the cool climate to the looks of the people, from landscapes to house architecture. Everything reminds a little corner of Germany here in Curitiba. Lacking only the snow because everything else is already there.
Curitiba is not as cozy as the metropolis of the north-east, for example Salvador de Bahia, but has been recognized among the cities that stand out for their environmentally sustainable urban development. The city’s architecture is very modern and cosmopolitan, green parks and oases appear at every turn. The city buzzes with college students and it seems really alive.
