Module 3 begins!!

We are in Sao Paulo and Buenos aires for Module 3- a week in each city.

I arrived in Brazil after traveling for a combined 17 hours.  The temperature is pleasant. Not too hot, nor smug, just sorta perfect 75 with little humidity. I was prepared for the worse-sweat drenched clothes exiting the plane like in Tanzania. But instead-just a little overcasted 75 degrees.

I took a taxi with my classmate and pal Phil. The biggest observation I have about Sao Paulo is the graffiti everywhere. I kept thinking to myself how did they reach that spot or that one? Phil commented that it reminded him of New York in the 80's. The overall architecture is mostly cement buildings-indicative of any hot climate location. I didn't see a lot of trash. The city seems mostly clean. The stories about the traffic congestion is true. It's bad. The people seem very friendly from my limited interactions and overall I like this city. Tomorrow our group will go on a tour of the city. I will take some photos and post later.

The classes:
This module I will be taking:
Global Operations and Supply Chains
Marketing for the Global Executives
Structuring and Managing the Global Firms
The integrated course will be Designing the Global Firm

Well I am going to go back to studying. Have a great night!
