This week I met the most interesting Brazilian person. What a delight to be able to learn from his experience. Mr.Geraldo Affonso Muzzi was an ambassador from Brazil to many Asian Countries.

He was in Japan Consul General and help many in need during his term. He has got many art pieces from all his trips so to go to his house here in Campinas in the state of Sao Paulo is already a great Asian adventure.

I asked him about his time in Nagoya, Japan. There are many Brazilians in that region and he did have a lot to do while in Nagoya. But Mr. Muzzi is not only business and assistance, no, he has a passion of his own.

You may say “come on all Brazilians like soccer…!” Well, that is true for most but this one has spent the 14 years or so researching and writing about it. In the last video of the list he amazed me when he said we Brazilians “have a lot to learn from Japan and Korea about soccer.

Check the above video list with Ex-Ambassador Geraldo Affonso Muzzi impressions about Asia. While serving in Asia he started to write a book about all the participations of Brazil in World Cups. He talks about his experience as Consul General of Brazil in Nagoya in Japan; his time as Ambassador in Kuala Lumpur; his passion for soccer and the games to happen in South Africa this year. Mr. Muzzi talks also about what Brazilian funs should learn from Asians.
