What’s it like to swap samba for skyscrapers? Victória Almeida, a Brazilian lecturer at Shanghai International Studies University, spills the tea on her cross-continental journey 🌉. As China and Brazil celebrate 50 years of diplomatic ties, her story embodies the cultural bridges being built for a new 'Golden Era.'

🎙️ 'Teaching here isn’t just about grammar – it’s exchanging worldviews,' says Almeida, whose students eagerly discuss everything from K-dramas to feijoada (Brazil’s national stew). She’s become a local influencer of sorts, posting viral TikTok videos comparing Shanghai’s xiao long bao dumplings with Rio’s coxinhas.

The SMG International documentary series – created with Brazil’s Shanghai consulate – highlights how young professionals like Almeida are redefining global connections. Pro tip from Victória? 'The best pastel (Brazilian street food) in town is actually near Jing’an Temple!' 🥟✨
