Meine erste Dienstreise auf die Südhalbkugel führte mich nach Porto Alegre, ganz im Süden Brasiliens im Juni (also Winter) 2018. Nicht unbedingt der schönste Ort für einen Besuch in Brasilien (und nicht unbedingt die beste Jahreszeit), aber dennoch hatte ich eine gute Zeit - insbesondere durch den netten Empfang meiner Kollegen bei SAP Sao Leopoldo.
Upgrade
Very welcoming (and not expected) upgrade to business class on one of my last flights (from Rio to Frankfurt), after a 30min run from gate to gate to catch my connection flight...
Only in Brazil...
...people cheer in crowds when German soccer national team loses a game...
