Anyone been to brazil? Is it safe? Cheap? Party hard? Please do tell, because i would like to go someday.

My grandfather lives in Brazil, near Campo Grande. Lives in a big pimpin Villa and has personal servants and just lives off his Airforce pension.

Its dirt cheap, and generally safe outside the major cities. Also party hard. Its a nice country with nice people, and white people blend in pretty well. They say there is no such thing as a "non-brazilian" face. Just try to blend in and you'll generally be safe.

Why are the major cities unsafe? There aren't any muslims there that i'm aware of lol

Because the country is a third world shithole full of niggers, shantytowns and drug gangs. The soul-crushing poverty and decay I saw in Sao Paolo is one of the worst I've seen anywhere in the world.

Human life has no value there.

Smaller towns in the interior. Not the fucking jungle or anything. Southern Brazil near the Argentine border is nice. Campo Grande is a very nice place, with low violence and very few slums and its improving. Its a little spread out like an american city though.

Yeah, seriously avoid the mega huge cities, and stick to the southern bit with the nice weather and the rolling plains. Foetid jungle asshole cities with unbelievable crime, poverty, blood and tears only balanced by a ruthless paramilitary police presence is not the ideal vacation for normal people.

Look into cities like Campo Grande.

Go south. Any of the southernmost states are pretty nice. No blacks, very little criminality, very good weather. The main ethnic groups of southern brazil are brazilians of german and italian descent.

Avoid Rio De Janero and the northeast states if you're not into black people and urban violence/criminality.

Hot women, good food & internet you'll find pretty much everywhere.

How easy is it to pick up Brazilian women? From the girls I've cybered, they seem pretty passionate and get horny easily.

First post in trv, my japanese TA was from Argentina, so I can only imagine there are more like her. She was hot. A lot of Japanese went to south america during the depression. That is all.

Did I say she was hot?

well I live in São Paulo (ok laugh) and well, if you have money its not that bad, just don't go walking around on the street at night 'cause its rly dangerous.
btw its the best city in the country, Rio de Janeiro is overrated (and dangerous, come on, you're at the beach and behind you theres tons of niggers clustered in "favelas" waiting to harass you T_T)
also Campo Grande sux, its small as hell and has nothing to do at all....

I've spent a lot of time around Brazilians, and the one thing I can say is that every one will be different, and they'll either be:

a)One of the nicest people you've ever met.
b)A total fucking asshole.

There is no in between with these people.

I was in Rio de Janeiro twice, once for a week, another time for 3 weeks. I did not encounter any difficulties and was not mugged or harmed in any way. However, I also followed some guidelines. Firstly, don't go into favelas, ever. Then you don't go out after 10pm alone. I would've gotten lost and would have been easy prey. The most dangerous time in Rio is 11pm - 6am and only if you are near the Favelas. Other than it is a beautiful city with beautiful women and great locations. Huge malls for shopping, great restaurants, prominent ones and less prominent ones equally cheap and delicious. It's worth a see to go to the Christ Redeemer, sugarloaf bread mountain, the botanic garden etc.
I stayed with locals that always were with me so I didn't get lost, that was very helpful. Alone, I would have been lost and probably would have been mugged. Twice.

I went to a lot of countries in SA, and Brazil is by far the best in all senses. If the sandniggers in /trv/ never went in there, don't know how they can give tips on it.

man I was like "lol whuts a Favela?" when I visited Rio so I went with a local friend and it was fine, although I wouldnt want to be there at night or alone at any time. If I remember it was called Vidigal on the southern side of the city.

I live in Sao Paulo. Cheap and dangerous. City is ugly as fuck, but lots of hot chicks. Never come here.

Rio is more dangerous but super hot chicks and actually cheaper I think.
>> Anonymous
Wow, there sure are a lot of people on this board who live in São Paulo (me included, lol). Violence is a problem here, but its nowhere as bad as Rio de Janeiro. As long as you stay out of the outskirts and the central part of town during the night it's fine. The women and food are great, so if you come looking for that you'll be almost guaranteed to have a good time.

I was thinking about going to Bahia because I hate white people, but I hate the idea of getting robbed in Rio more. How many people speak Spanish? Or would I be able to understand Brazilian Portugese as it is?

I lived in Lisbon most of my life, until I finally decided to move to Brazil. Always wanted to meet new places and Brazil has everything that Portugal doesn't, but it also works the other way around. It is a third world country when it comes to cheap technology and social problems like violence etc. But it's a first world country when it comes to food and people. It's great to live among with Brazilians, they are polite, very educated (at least in my social network) and always eager to help you out when you need.

I lived in Sao Paulo for 4 years, and I didn't like it that much. Dirty place, very chaotic and violent if you go to the outskirts or downtown. I traveled a lot to the interior of the State, and it was great. Lovely landscapes, great food, great people. So I decided to move again, and went to Curitiba. Now that's a city. It has everything I love about Brazil and any first world country, all in the same city. Next stop: Blumenau (also heard it was a great place to visit).

I live in Curitiba.
Actually it's like you say, everyone here is proud of Curitiba. They love to compare Curitiba to Europe, although this sucks (imo).

Violence is getting higher fast here. The city is a route to drugs that come from Paraguay, so I'd say that you should be careful. But it actually is a beautiful city. The weather seems like southern Europe, and german/italian/polish influence in people's skin, food and habits is notable. If you dislike this, however, you can still get in touch with brazilian culture.

My opinion for being a brazilian should be disconsidered, but anyway, I love Brazil. Its beat, its people, its food, everything. Ok, Brazil STILL IS a third-world country, with all the issues a poor country should face. But this also is getting better. Just see the last news, Brazil is now considered developed by UN (hdi 0.800), investment grade achieved, Bovespa getting to 70.000 points (in 1999 it was 2.000 points!), the BRICs...

However, if you are so much afraid of violence, then wait some decades. Things will be better (if everything goes right).

And also, forgot to say:
The really bad news you hear about Brazil usually is about its northern/poorer part. There even I am afraid of going. Here in Curitiba and the southern part as a whole things as violence are "nicer", if you can call that.

About English, well, not many people speak. If you speak Spanish, though, then you'll understand a little and even try to talk with people. Portuguese and Spanish are really close-related languages. I think those languages-speakers can understand each other well.
