Tripped Out! - São Paulo

I know you don’t NEED a guide to São Paulo BUT this isn’t Lonely Planet, I promise. Tripped Out! is a first person account of the best – and the worst – that the city’s subculture has to offer.

From windowless dive bars with knife-carrying clientele, to record stores run by heavy metal legends.

Experience the heaving markets, curb-side restaurants and gigantic sandwiches of Brazil’s biggest city.

Take an eye-popping trip through the worst part of town. Watch a high-stakes election in an LGBTQ+ bar with everything to lose. And get driven out of a Japanese restaurant at 4AM by some drunk guy singing Purple Rain.

This is a snapshot of one of the most vibrant, endearing and shocking places on Earth. An outsider’s guide to São Paulo.
