This is Brazil! S01E01 - Curitiba & Belo Horizonte

Fernanda moved to Australia 10 years ago from Brazil. Now, as her country of birth gears up to host the 2014 FIFA World Cup, she heads home. A perfect place to start her journey is at a local football match in Curitiba, a city that boasts the best quality of life in Brazil. Fernanda then has a taste of Brazil's other passion, coffee, before meeting the former mayor and city planner responsible for putting Curitiba on the map. No trip home would be complete without a feast with loved ones, so the next stop is her hometown of Belo Horizonte. She visits Central Market with her mum, sampling cachaça, Minas cheese, her beloved guava paste and other local produce. Being back with family helps Fernanda ease back into the lifestyle.
