Posts: 235Airbnb.
A little info on airbnb. I started using airbnb in 2012. I am one on their oldest customers. I just checked my profile and I have used airbnb 42 times. Aprox 20 in RIO 10 in Argentina and the others in other SA countries and a hand full in europe. I always stay in an apartment and I have paid over $50.00 I think 3 times. With that said the last few trips and from now on I'm raising my limit to $60.00. I would say overall most of the apartments I have stayed in were 3.5 stars. A few were better some were not as good. I've had problems 3 times, once in Barranquilla My apartment turned out to be a hotel storage room with no windows and next to the parking garage. I didn't stay and rented a room at a local hotel for one night airbnb refunded my money minus their fee but gave me a coupon worth more that their fee. I will not bore you with the other problems I had but airbnb has good customer service. Pull up their internet site and study it for a minute. Its pretty much straight forward. A few hints. Like I said I always look for apartments, all have kitchens. I don't cook but I do like a refer and a microwave and a coffee pot. WIFI is a must. I have found that condo rentals and some hotels lease apartments to people that rent them out thru airbnb. If this is what you like look at their amenities and if they list a exercise room and or a pool this is a dead giveaway. When setting up a trip to RIO I try to set up my travel dates around the availability of rooms at the real residents hotel. (I'm not sure that's the right name) but apartments there are about $50.00 a night and it's worth it. I hope this helps.

I will concede that there are cheap hotels that can be cheaper that an apartment or Airbnb, but not the class of hotels I would frequent.

"Feio e velho" is singular and masculinum, i.e. correct for one man.

Is correct?
I've only spoken the insult, and it's a handy one in Rio, as most of the locals are Flamengo fans and won't expect it from an inexperienced tourist.

E instead of Sou perhaps. This is why one person practices.

Posts: 2193Go to a post office and apply for one. But that's bad operational security.

Posts: 2193Wearing a local soccer shirt is a sure sign of the confidence needed for successful mongering in Brazil. Indeed, starting a small collection and suiting up one's equip is extra credit, the graduate level of mongering. I suggest suiting up one mulata with big tits in Vasco and a second mulata with big tits in Flamengo. Botafogo should be worn by the monger who is hosting.
