Some years ago I went to Miami and in the hotel I was I noticed some dammn good looking women. There seemed to be a lot of incredibly hot girls from Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil and Argentina around. Miami is a important city for the entertainment and fashion industry of Latin America so that doesn't comes as a surprise.
Although I really didn't find the place very interesting, the culture seemed very shallow.
Recently a friend of mine was showing me a picture of a hot "instagram model", the picture was taken in Miami, again I noticed that all those instagram girls seem to flock to Miami for whatever reason. That made me remember the experience I had years ago and made me wonder which other places work as model attracting magnets? Maybe there are some places which have that advantage while having more interesting things to do. I can think of places like NYC, Paris or São Paulo, but it would be cool to know which places would be the equivalent in other places of the world like eastern and southern Europe or Asia.
Miami's the New York for Latin America. It is where everyone down here seems to idolize.
In the Southern part of South America there's Buenos AIres, Montevideo (which punches above its weight due to relative safety, quality of life), a bunch of Brasilero mega cities, and Lima which is about as far north as my Intel goes.
They seem to make cities bigger down here, at least by headcount. Montevideo where I have settled is comparatively small at 1.5 million warm bodies, but... I love how they have kept large sections of the city, especially along the coast, from being overwhelmed by in your face poverty. Why the US put their embassy here in the ghetto along the rocky part of the coast I can't wrap my head around. It's a trip though coming from the mid west and walking by embassy after embassy.
