@GrindtooFilthy did you know a little Portuguese beforehand? did you have to keep you head on a swivel some places? what nightlife and restaurants do you recommend?
Going to Rio and Sao Paulo it's good to know some portuguese beforehand but not really required, Salvador you should definitely know a sizeable amount of portuguese or you will have a bad time.@GrindtooFilthy did you know a little Portuguese beforehand? did you have to keep you head on a swivel some places? what nightlife and restaurants do you recommend?
Appreciate it, what did you use to learn Portuguese?Going to Rio and Sao Paulo it's good to know some portuguese beforehand but not really required, Salvador you should definitely know a sizeable amount of portuguese or you will have a bad time.
Yes you have to keep your head on a swivel especially in places like lapa and copa but funnily enough the favelas like rochina and vidigal felt way safer
Nightlife is tough, I would say download the shotgun app that's where I found most of the parties I went to. lapa has a strip with clubs/bars same with copa and leblon. They have nightlcub called casa black in Madureira.
Restaurant recs I can't help you with I eat as I go, just hit up tiktok and search must visit restaurants in rio

italki honestly grab a tutor to learn any language you will learn a lot faster that wayAppreciate it, what did you use to learn Portuguese?
solid but def learn portuguese before you go if you hitting salvadorHow was Salvador?
I really wanna visit. That Afro-Brazilian greatness.
All women are looking for come up, lol you think women in America are any different?
Bro if you not a green ass nikka you can def see the play or spot certain characteristics about the bytch if she seem shady
Also the women out there make it easy to read their body language even if she's not the approach type she will MAKE it known for you to approach her, as opposed to women here all always playing hard to get and having 10ft fukkin wall and their guard always up like a D-lineman, aint nobody got time for that bullshyt
bro honestly it's not even that Brazilians are just VERY relaxed ppl, even if a chick isn't feeling you she will stop have a conversation and let you down gently in fact I would like to say most women are like this barring certain countries. It's just the US and few other countries where women act like complete ass holes man.
broski you have lived in america for too damn long I have had women approach me in Japan, Bali, Nigeria, Jamaica, and even the UK.
They play plenty of western music in brazil breh...depends what your vibe is, I mostly go based off music. if you only or mainly like american/western music you not gonna enjoy the shyt i go to imma keeping it a buck

I was deep in the favelas in Vidigal and Rochina they are most definitely not listening to western music especially during carnival, and if you consider shyt like this western music i dunno what to tell youThey play plenty of western music in brazil breh...
And technically speaking, dancehall, soca, funk are all western music genres...
Lol they are not interested in coming to america. to do what work 40 hrs? lolduh , they see money and possibly getting to america. if they like that they are whores.
I had a running buddy who was happily married. went to Rio one time for business in the 2010s… within 5 years he was speaking fluent Portuguese and had a whole other family in Salvador….Brazilians a dangerous place…obrigadoI was in Salvador, Rio, and Sao Paulo
