Posts: 890Rio One-Time Cleaning Service
Anyone able to recommend a cleaning service to do a one-time clean, top to bottom, of an apartment prior to move-in of a tenant?
I need a service to literally scrub the floors, walls, etc. of an apartment in Copa prior to the tenant taking possession.
Not a job for a day-maid as it requires thoroughly cleaning several rooms, bathrooms, walls, etc.
Anyone know a good service that would do this even for a higher price?
Thx.
Cartman

Posts: 117Privé Confusion
I am a bit confused about Jú Panteras and Mural da Prazer (http://www.muraldoprazer.com/mulhere...largodomachado). Although I may be mistaken, both seem to have a privé near the Largo do Machado metro station. Actually it appears that they have the same phone number (3185-4060). Can anyone confirm that they are indeed the same establishment? And I assume that Mural da Prazer is different than Bel Prazer? Thanks.

Also these things depends of your background and how do you see world in general.
First ask from yourself a few questions:
Do I tolerate people with less education than myself.
Do I want to support someone for rest of her life.
Do I stand the prejudice of my friends, co-workers, family, neighbours etc.
Do I have balls to go through the interracial relationship in general
Honestly, think what you're doing.
Although as per my understanding there is nothing worse than american women so you can't go too wrong.

Furthermore, the few "normal" girls who want to leave abroad got everywhere exposed to higher-class tourism and have raised their standard. They aren't just looking for "anyone", but rather "the One".
That said, the poorer girls remain one-track mind gold-diggers. It's in their blood and called survival. If it's what you are looking for.

I know its not good to generalize but overall do Brazilian girls make good wives to take back to the U.S.A.?? I know its different for every region and Im sure girls from inland are a lot different from girls that are from Rio or Sao Paulo. Im talking to some girls from Sao Paulo and Rio that are non pro and just wondering if I should have second thoughts about starting a serious relationship with these girls. Im coming to brazil in december for a while. thanks

Posts: 2690Thread Split
Greetings Everyone,
I moved the last several pages of discussion regarding "Racism against foreigners in Brazil" to another thread in this forum titled "Racism against foreigners in Brazil".
http://www.internationalsexguide.inf...ead.php?t=3158
This "Thread Splitting" process is not perfect, and it's possible that I may have inadvertently moved/did not move a few reports. If you find that your own report was also moved/not moved, please don't take it personally.
Thanks,
Jackson

And yes, in my opinion if a Brazilian air marshall were to arrest the wife of a famous American judge, the marshall would have been treated more than fairly. The Judge and his wife would have been in trouble and the cop probably would have been interviewed by all major networks and sent home with commendation. I am not prejudiced. That is a fact of life.

Brazil is one of a few countries that uses both 120 and 240 volts for everyday appliances. Expect the voltage to change back and forth as you travel from one place to the next -- even within the same Brazilian state, sometimes even within the same building. There is no physical difference in the electric outlets (power mains) for the two voltages.
Electric outlets usually accept both flat (North American), and round (European) plugs. Otherwise adaptors from flat blades to round pins are easy to find in any supermarket or hardware shop. Some outlets are too narrow for the German "Schuko" plugs. The best makeshift solution is to buy a cheap T-connection and just force your "Schuko" in, -the T will break, but it will work. Very few outlets have a grounding point, and some might not accept newer North American polarized plugs, where one pin is slightly larger. Again, use the cheap T. Near the border with Argentina, you might occasionally find outlets for the Australia/New Zealand-type plug. If crossing the border, you'll probably need this adapter as well.
In 2009/2010, a the IEC 60906-1 was introduced in Brazil and some newer buidings already have it. It is backwards compatible with the Europlug, but it has a receded socket. Again, T-plugs can be used as adapters for other common formats.
Frequency is 60Hz, which may disturb 50 Hz electric clocks. Blackouts are less and less frequent, but you always run a risk at peak of high season in small tourist towns.

In most cases the socket is dual: two pins euro/USA

Posts: 23Can someone tell me!
I want to bring my computer on my trip to Rio, I am from europe, and I have a new HP with a regular european plug. Can someone please tell me whether I need some kind of adaptor, or if it'll work as it is.
Thanks in advance.
