I’m brazilian, from San Paolo, and I’m really satisfied to see stuff from my city appearing at global a blog like Craftzine.
San Paolo is soo big and plural that even I don’t imagine all things that the city have to offer. This video was new stuff for me.

This is beautiful. It is wonderful to see people that love life.
Thanks for posting this Becky! So lovely. Cool Hunting did a beautiful job.
