    Quick introduction to the Portuguese R:
    If it starts a word or if there are two RR together, then it sounds like the French R
    (e.g Roçais and Forró have the same sound)
    If it is by itself in the middle of a word, then it sounds like the Spanish R
    Foro (forum) ≠ forró (race)
    And if it finishes a word then it sounds like the American English R
    (most verb endings)
    Of course, it varies greatly with different accents, but that's a quick and generic overview

    7:48 - You actually had the right pronunciation (the “cão” part)! The drunk-russian-speaking-spanish trick never fails.
    Also, I never realized that Almada Negreiros was actually born in São Tomé. That’s great!
    About the relationship between STP and Portugal, one of the reasons it is so close is because, although there was an independence movement, it operated in Gabon, and there was never a serious armed conflict.
    And it is true that Portugal sends a lot of expertise to São Tomé, not only military. If I can recall, my Geography teacher told us that her husband, who worked on the Merchant Navy, was sent there to instruct and help them develop their own shipping activity. And we in Portugal also love São Tomé - it’s like Cabo Verde, but Tropical.

But Réunion decided to stay French (no independence movement). While kinda "comfortable" (the island is well developed), it's also very unknown.

    I was fortunate enough to visit STP last year, as the last country in my quest to visit all counties with an "&" in their name.
    First things first: the people are some of the friendliest I've ever met. Everyone smiles and I felt very safe, day and night.
    I loved the food. These people know how to grill a fish!
    I don't speak Portuguese, but my Spanish is bad enough that it can pass as Portuguese, so I got by with Spanish and French.
    The nature and landscapes are stunning. It is definitely a place I'd like to return to.
