Depends on which terminal you arrive.

Though, the ATMs give still only R$ 100 between 22. 00. 06. 00.

Haven't been in Centro. Actually things are pretty bad in Penha, but effects are all over the city. Lots of police and army activities. Different drug dealers are joining forces to stop police taking...

Yes, you got ripped off. With 45000 reais you can close VM for a month.

Well shit happens.

:-)

Well, sad to infrom that the cheaper tickets do not include even water anymore. Only the tickets closer to 100R$ include snack (chocolate bar and water). Before all buses had snacks.

Also GOL has...

Gentlemen.

I have a video that I took in Galeao airport in Rio de Janeiro where the customs officials were opening systematically the luggage and going through them.

I was waiting for my own...

Well, well, well.

Things like that happen here frequently when women go out with a bunch of gringos. It has happened to me, my brother and all of my friends.

In Zona Sul mainly. If a woman...

Sorry.

I'm live exactly as fucked up as I'm virtually. 99,99% wouldn't like me at all.

But, I'm genuine and honest.

You are so clueless.

Brasilians may or may not be happier than anyone else.

For majority life here is eternal struggle without any reason for happiness.

Its easy to see that your contacts...

This is EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Poor rats have no money to sustain themselves, but oh yeah when it comes to making carnaval suits or platforms they can spend MILLIONS of reais. Come on. The...

Right.

Those "people" work, but do they contribute anything? No.

You are so clueless what is really going on in Brasil.

I'm happy with the economic boost of this country, since I live here...

I know, I know. I promised not to participate this favela discussion but now I just have to.

Jota, you are so clueless.

First of all, great majority of favela residents DO choose live in...

What part of remove you do not understand?

Maybe relocate would be the right word here? Send back where they came from.

This was done in Colombia if I remember right and area was transformed...

Thanks.

Bullshit, people in favelas are just lowlife that should be removed...

It just serves right that those lowlifes finally pay their fair share of utilities.

Its so easy to...

Well, since you opened this particular can of worms: Asphalt, yes but roads no. Great majority of so called roads seem to be asphalt covered fields with holes in it. Postal service, bunch of thieves....

Well, if some service, like water, sewage, power etc. is something you are supposed to pay for and you do not, its called stealing.

I'm glad that you know conditions so well in Brasil. How many...

Yes, favelas have all services one can imagine, water, sewage, power, Internet, phone, Satellite TV... you name it they have it. All stolen. We who pay our bills pay their life too.

My opinion is...

There is just one danger for non brasilian women. When one tries brasilian girl, there is a big chance that non brasilian especially feminist western woman doesn't feel a natural choice anymore.

Naw.
I just do not like to pay for a product that is freely available.

Thanks for your excellent advice.

Who said that they have better life than me?

I could live any of those neighbourhoods, but its my choise not to.

Funny how you who visit 1 - X times per year Brasil are such experts on the day...

What is this about? The fact is that when one lives in Brasil he'll find life a lot cheaper than what tourists do.

I do not know about lower-middle class, but majority that I know wouldn't be...

Where did you get this?

Prostitution is completely legal in Brasil.

You should know if you live here.

That's so brasilian.

I'd opt for go to hell.

They try to get extra in any way possible.

Her logic has no base.

Just leave the apt., tell her to fuck off and never ever rent again. Even...

Don't worry. No foreigners in danger. Only favelas are under real danger. Although rains are less frequent but now its rather chilly.

A few words.

It has been raining more than ever in Rio within a few days. Zona Sul is cut from Zona Norte.
There is a death toll of almost 100 (yesterday night). Mainly in different favelas of...
