Do you know how much in total you an withdraw in a day in Brazil? I know the Schwab limit but the ATM may have it's own limit.

Based on my experience using Bradesco ATMs both in SP and Rio, some of their ATMs have 2500 R max per transaction and other have 1250 R max. I am guessing you could do multiple transactions transactions to get more than the ATM limit as long as the total withdrawn doesn't exceed your bank account's daily withdrawal limit.

On arrival, I wouldn't carry anything valuable in a suitcase that I put in the trunk. All my money and valuables are with me inside the cab. And I try to take as little cash with me as possible (Schwab for ATMs).

Is Ibirapuera Park in Sao Paulo open? Are people working out there in these times?

GOL is rescheduling with heavy hand. Both legs of my flights CGH-SDU-CGH were changed and both legs of my flights CGH-CWB-GRU were cancelled. I rebooked all those flights, no problems there, but still wondering what's going on.

Temperature may be my guess as in some areas south of Sampa there was ice / snow and temperature below zero Celsius.

Yes they love perfume but brand perfume is expensive for Brazilians and their #1 present to get for anyone. Like a cheap bottle of CK in the US is $20 but cost about $150 for them in Brazil. They usually don't buy and get them as presents.

You would think I would have known this but I did not. No wonder all these chicks have given me cologne through the years. My girlfriend finally stopped buying it for me and now buys shirts for me instead. She said she realized I was never going to use the cologne. I said I really am not going to use it now since everyone is wearing masks these days. What is the sense in it.

Sometimes Brazilians make things very difficult for people without CPF. GOL rescheduled my flight from SDU to CGH and the new flight was too late for me. I tried to change the flight in their chat, but if you don't have a CPF you can't talk with a real person, just with a virtual assistant called GAL. I could finally do the change elsewhere on their site, without their help. Now I have an appointment with the Brazilian consulate in three weeks and I expect to have a CPF before my trip to Brazil in October.

Strippers in general worldwide aren't supposed to wear perfume or glitter like back in the day. The wifey will know they were at a strip club or with a girl in general.

If you still have time you may want to apply for a CPF (cadastro de pessoa fisica) with the Brazil embassy/consulate. I used a Brazilian friend's CPF but having your own is much better (you'll get no proper hospital/doctor's invoice without your own CPF in Brazil). My (women) friend's CPF even got me discounts when I bought condoms at pharmacies!

I get turned on by perfume and I noticed that many girls in USA don't really use it.

I was wondering if the working girls are more likely to use perfume in Brazil? How do they smell in general?

Since I am fully vaccinated, I am now planning for a week of pleasure in Brazil. Booked a cheap flight to Sao Paolo already for end of August.

I have not been in Brazil for 20 years.

Does anybody have a current experience in Sao Paolo and / or Florianopolis regarding:

- how it is regarding Covid? Is it relatively liberal or tough measures?

- how is the situation with girls. A good time to find some hot and willing girls?

I appreciate any of your feedback.

Thank you,

Mike.

I found them to smell pretty good generally and some do use it. But I will focus more on how I smell and will simply move on from a foul/unpleasant smelling GDP. Living in a hot climate, Brazilians may shower/wash three (3) or more times a day.

Take care of your own personal smell/hygiene and that should play a big part in your overall experience. And yes, GDPs love a nice smelling client. Modicum of mildly applied cologne (or scented after shave) is a nice touch.

Brazilians who have got the Pfizer, Moderna, AZ or Jansen vaccine can travel to France again. I hope Brazil will soon remove the requirement for PCR-test for vaccinated Europeans. Usually these things work both ways.

GDPs do not wear perfume generally if they want to keep clients who are mostly married Brazilian men.

GDPs do wear eau de toilette. Perfume is too expensive during their off hours as do non-GDPs.

Most Brazilian women are attentive to hygiene and smell like a woman should unlike some of their US sisters who smell like old tennis shoes.

Everything closes around 10 but if there's an actual curfew, I haven't noticed. I've walked the streets late night and cops pass me no issue. Plenty of cars on the road.

Appreciate if anyone can confirm the curfew restrictions.

Sao Paulo- 10 pm And possibly lifted by July 15.

Rio- No curfew.
