Where to stay
Welcome to São Paulo…

This is BRAZ-TESOL’s biggest year. Our National Convention is the biggest event organized by the biggest association of teachers of English to speakers of other languages. Besides, this year’s convention is held in the largest city of South America with hundreds and hundreds of things to do.

Eating out is something that “paulistanos” love doing. Whether this is your first time here or you have visited São Paulo many times, there is always something new to be discovered. We listed some suggestions to suit many different tastes. [Do check their websites for more information on the food, atmosphere, location, etc.]
