People from my city (Guarujá, a tipically tropical city with big and sunny beaches )always call the white tourists as "paulistas", even knowing that we are also "paulistas".<BR/>The same occurs in Rio de Janeiro: It's the name of the City and State, and there are people who is "Carioca" ( from the city ) or "fluminense" ( from the state ). Coz Rio de Janeiro has a team called "Fluminense", many people from there don't like to be named "Fluminense", and prefers the "Carioca".<BR/><BR/><BR/>Your blog is very good and I'll folllow your posts from this day on. Sorry about my poor english.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Ângelo, your Paulista Correspondent!Da C.I.A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01222200697382747802noreply@blogger.com
