On our second day, we spent the morning visiting dear friends in Holambra, an old Dutch city in the state of São Paulo! Holambra's inhabitants are mostly from Holland and many of them still speak Dutch. They have plenty of Dutch restaurants and stores, acres of tulips plantation and super cute green house flower shops throughout the town.
We got to visit a farm with horses and a wild peacock and an amazing farm furniture and green house store that really deserves it's own post due to the amazing rustic style. We also stopped by the supermarket in town and shopped for food to bring back home!
Here are a few images of Holambra!
