How Not to Travel in Brazil

Don’t Be Surprised That We Don’t Live in a Jungle
This is Rio de Janeiro.
I mean, the amount of people I met who admitted Rio de Janeiro is way more advanced than their hometown is mind-boggling. Travelers have this romantic view, where they think they will find Brazilians on their boats feeding monkeys — I’ll tell you now that if you think like that, you’ll be disappointed!
Unless you actually go to the Amazon, you won’t see animals in any major Brazilian city. You will see huge traffic jams, stressed people, robbery, etc. We also have fast Internet, people with the latest smartphones, and skyscrapers!
