Hoje vamos falar sobre a Região Sudeste do Brasil, a mais populosa e economicamente desenvolvida do país. Ela é formada por quatro estados: São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais e Espírito Santo. Cada um com características culturais marcantes e paisagens muito diferentes entre si.

São Paulo é o coração financeiro do Brasil, com a maior cidade da América do Sul. Rio de Janeiro encanta o mundo com suas praias, o Cristo Redentor e o famoso Carnaval. Minas Gerais é conhecida por sua culinária, suas montanhas e seu patrimônio histórico, com cidades como Ouro Preto e Tiradentes. Já o Espírito Santo guarda belezas naturais, como as praias de Guarapari e a tradicional moqueca capixaba.

Além da força econômica, o Sudeste também é um polo cultural e universitário. A mistura de tradições indígenas, africanas, europeias e migrantes de todo o Brasil fez da região um lugar diverso e dinâmico, onde o passado e o futuro convivem lado a lado.

E você, já conheceu algum estado do Sudeste?

Regiões do Brasil - SUDESTE

If you see someone sitting alone in a restaurant, you might assume they're waiting for someone, or perhaps they're grabbing a quick lunch on their break.

But more and more people around the world are purposely dining alone.

Japan has a special word for this: ohitorisama, which refers to people confidently doing things alone without worrying about what others think.

A recent survey found that 23% of Japanese people eat out alone, up from 18% in 2018. And in the US, solo dining reservations have risen 29% over the last two years, according to restaurant reservation site OpenTable.

OpenTable CEO Debby Soo thinks remote work is one reason for the increase, with people looking for a break from their home offices.

The increasing popularity in solo dining comes as more people are living alone. In 2019, the Pew Research Center found that 38% of US adults ages 25 to 54 were living without a partner, up from 29% in 1990. In Japan, single households now make up one-third of the total; that’s expected to increase to 40% by 2040, according to government data.

Growing interest in solo travel — particularly among travelers ages 55 and over — is also leading to more meals alone.

But Soo thinks there could be more to it than that.

"I think there's a broader movement of self-love and self-care and really … enjoying your own company," Soo said.

As a result, many restaurants are redoing their seating, changing their menus and adding other special touches to appeal to solo diners.

But some aren't always happy to seat one diner. A Michelin-starred London restaurant caused a stir last year when it started charging solo diners the same price as two customers. The restaurant, which has 34 seats, offers an eight-course menu costing about $280 per person.

Other restaurants say it's worth seating one person because solo diners will often come back and eat there again.
