Which is rookie numbers, I know

Ours is definitely in the - numbers

It was - 3°c this morning

It's because of the angle of rotation of the Earth + the layout of the seasons next to the Tropic of Capricornius ?

big brain knowledge

Let me get my city in a map

Let's see how much I succeed

I was under the impression that parts of Brazil were quite temperate

I think it's on a similar latitude to NZ

Not sure on that ? My professor wouldn't be pleased

it's amazing how close you are to Antarctica

I'm still very far off though

3000km

Yet your climate is so wildly different

I think

Relatively speaking, it's pretty close

Eh

23° 10' 44" S 45° 53' 13" O

That's the coordinates

Very cool

It's actually a nice city to live in

Even if its name is a mouthful

What does São mean btw

Is it city? Or something equally uninteresting

Same thing as "Saint"

Ohh

You have a lot of Saint cities

In other words, if you apply the "dumbass literal translation" strategy

It would mean "Saint Joseph of the Fields"

Heh

I like literal translations

Bethlehem means House of Chicken

Yeah, they fun

There are also cities who have been named after words in the indigenous Tupi language

Like the famous "Itaquaquecetuba"

Almost looks like Welsh
