The little Holland town speaks to me. The colors,the flowers and the waterway. Even those cute little creatures!!! I could hang my heart there for awhile.

Wonderful

[@patriot130]

WOW!! Brazil is amazing. So beautiful and the people seem real.. Not so much window and door bars on all the houses like Chile and Argentina... I wish I could live on that land mass.. Why anyone would want to leave such a beautiful place shocks me...Not much of a Rio fan but the farm land is to die for. The Capybara are so dam cute Id so love to have one as a pet.

Brazilians dont like Rio too hahahaha, its a danger and bad place, its sad because is a beautiful land

[@v1n1c1u55anto5]

Brazilian migration is not that high but the country has a big population, so any % of emigrants represents a lot of people. But there a Lot of developed countries with bigger emigration than Brazil

[@Katiabarros]

I am Brazilian and I Love Love Rio! It is my home town and it is a wonderful place to live and enjoy life! Cheers 🥰❤@@kolyh1561

[@williamthierry5976]

​@@v1n1c1u55anto5Great that there are few immigrants living mainly in the small cities. They are generally calm and organized cities, life is completely different from the big busy centers. These "developed" countries that are receiving high rates of immigrants are showing major problems, especially European countries.

I looove Holambra, as a Dutch person living here in Brazil atm it's so great having a town not too far away from me to visit and feel a little at home. However it is very expensive there, so you might as well save your money to spend it "on the real thing" in the Netherlands! can't wait to see you guys exploring my country. much love.

[@SnowAndCurt]

Couldn't agree more!

[@clone_commandernayo5435]

you both are so personable and kind! your beautiful personalities really shine through the lens not to mention how much you both respect each other, others, animals and the world! Loved this video showing the Dutch community and that chocolate strawberry waffle that Curt flaunted in front of us looked so yummy! Snow you are looking healthy!

Minas Gerais is a Brazilian state that is larger than many countries in the world, so it has huge differences, you will find beautiful paved and dirt roads, lots of mountains and waterfalls.

[@kitnetsipeamarelo3760]

A tip: You people have to tell people that you are KZbinrs with more than 100 thousand subscribers. If they publicize this, they will certainly come in and show things without having to pay anything. Everyone wants publicity. They should have done this at the Holambra expo...

[@luismendonca7154]

Again another wonderful video. Brazil always surprises us. Congrats 👏

[@SnowAndCurt]

Thanks! 😃

[@ronpinto9588]

It surprises me to learn that you are going back to Buenos Aires to ship your van, when the natural route would be to travel north, then ship your van from Recife, much closer to Europe, and likely cheaper fees. You would see more of Brazil and spend less money going to Europe.

[@manfra15]

Holambra is in Sao Paulo state. So you crossed a little piece of Minas Gerais state and return to Sao Paulo state. Fantastic

[@SnowAndCurt]

Stay tuned, you will be very surprised in the next video 🙀🙀

[@BrunoFersi]

Backing to Argentina, you will miss a great Brazilian region, northeast. There are a different culture, gastronomics, people and landscapes. Wonderfull beachs, similar to caribe. Near to Holambra, there are a city funded by North americans, a city called Americana.

Thanks for the tips!

the region of Holambra and Limeira here in São Paulo state produces 80% of all the orange in the world

[@davidlp6510]

Yeah, I never understood why ship the van from Argentina. The boat will stop in Brazil anyways. Shipping out of Brazil is not only cheaper but it would take at least 3 days less to get to Europe. My brother shipped one boat from Santos (SP- Brazil) to Spain and several slabs of marble from somewhere north of Rio to Baltimore before. He was wondering why you are doing this way.

[@ren2658]

I love your videos, the top notch work you put in the editing of them, the light, music and sound are just perfection for the proposal of natural filming. It’s as smooth as it gets. And I loooove you both. You’re completely cut out for this kind of life. Wishing you health and tons of love always.

Considering Guyana and the fact the whole Northeast of Brazil became Dutch for 2-3 decades before being retaken by Portugal, not SO extraordinary.

[@baronderochemont8556]

@@rogeriopenna9014 Those facts have no relation whatsoever with the founding of Holambra.

[@chaoswarriorbr]

There were even Finnish, Russian, Polish, Ukranian and so on colonies, besides the main Italian, German and Japanese. The Finnish one is in Penedo, near Itatiaia in the state of Rio de Janeiro, near the main highway (BR-116) between Rio de Janeiro (capital of the state) and São Paulo. There isn't as many Finnish descendants there still, but it has some remaining influence in the local culture. Interesting place for tourism, with plenty of hotels for all tastes, including camping areas.

[@gustavosoares4926]

Not just Dutch. But there are also Swiss, German, Finnish, Ukrainian, Japan, Italian cities, Brazilian Venice, Brazilian Dubai, Brazilian Caribbean...

[@victordottaviano645]

Actually Holambra isn't a dutch themed town, it was founded by dutch immigrants in the past. I live in Campinas, a nearby town and the 2nd biggest in Sao Paulo state. I'm so happy that you guys had time to check it out! Stay safe and can't wait to watch the next video!

Pretty coo Paraty is wonderful🎉 and yes ...all the rounds down the mountains are not easy roads...especially when we are on holidays and vacation times...it takes a long slow time driving up and down ...my vacations many memories💫 just a detail ... that city is back in São Paulo state...a very popular city because of their heritage maintained with the plants and flowers; very loved farm with the special time in September/October... special plants exposition with a store next door for all kinds of plants you wish to buy ...I have also been there because of my love for flowers ...and just so you now, my parents were also WWII imigrantes...I was born some hears after they had arrived in São Paulo city. Many European immigrants were establish in the Brazilian south states due to the more similar European climate and nature😊 and I really enjoyed your videos...very well done, your emotions about Brazil are similar to my mom’s...she used to say “a heaven place”, specially because of the effects of WW2 in the many countries ...she became a lawyer after being in Brazil...a good lawyer...a lot of experiences for her not speaking Portuguese when she arrived and restarting from a zero condition. The same for the the many imigrantes and a big help for the farming of all kinds ...the best economical condition is established in the suddern states.

Close to Holambra there is a city called Americana, founded by Americans settlers from the south of USA who came after the civil war. I grew up in Amparo, a little town close to Holambra, but I’ve never been there because people use to say that it’s overrated 😅not much to do there… Amparo preserves the architecture and atmosphere of the coffee golden age.

There are two cities in the state of São Paulo that were founded by Americans, and there are many descendants in them. The names of the cities are 'Americana' and 'Santa Bárbara d'Oeste.' I'm not sure if you are aware of this part of history, but many Americans from the South immigrated to Brazil after the end of the American Civil War.

[@CarolynnMc01]

I just love you two! It's so much fun touring with you. I can't tell you how I appreciate your channel! I also love your cats. Brazil is beautiful and so interesting! If you have time for a cat story: I love cats so much! When Mom was ill, a siamese mix showed up in her garage in spring time.. Of course she was pregnant and because we had two cats, I couldn't bring her inside. I took her to the vet, made her a heated and insulated box with a lid and she had four ong haired Hymalayan looking kittens. When they were weaned, a kind soul adopted Mom and that filled my heart with joy. She wasn't two years old. I took the kittens to the vet, got them their shots. They were healthy and active. They were all adopted and when people asked me about their names, i told them they all answer to "Baby-Izz". Reason? Because every time I went to feed them, I'd just say "where that Baby Is?" They all came running. The last one to be adopted was my favorite.... his name has been Baby Izz all his life! The father in the houseold "didn't like" cats. Well, that cat loves him and even lies in the sink when he shaves. Baby Izz has his heart and now he loves cats! Best wishes. I'm looking forward to the future of your channel.
