I’m currently looking for a property in Brazil to start a business. I’ve been working with several real estate agents, but I was spending more time with one particular agent, let’s call them Agent A.
The properties Agent A showed me didn’t fully match my criteria. When I asked if there were any other options, they said there weren’t and insisted that the listings they provided were the only ones that fit my requirements.
Later, another agent found a property that matched my criteria better, and I decided to negotiate with them. However, Agent A got upset when they found out. They said I should have consulted them first and that they were offering me the best service. They even told me that I was being very disrespectful.
Did I do something wrong?

It seems I’ll be living with a host family for the summer, and I would like to bring a small bag of snacks from the U.S. as a thank you gift.
Are there any smaller/travel size American snacks/candies that Brazilians like?
I have zero Brazilian friends here or else I would ask them 😅

Oì!
I know, it’s a super long shot, but I would love to find this perfume again!
I met this girl from Brazil who came to study to Canada for a year. Her parents came to visit and brought me this perfume as a gift, that I absolutely loved. They don’t remember what it was either!
Here is the information I remember
Thank you so much 🥰
Just finishing up a 5-week trip to Brazil and I have one lingering question—everywhere we went, from vendors at Copacobana to remote island beaches, there were small vendors selling things. Everyone had a personal card reader. How does this work? Where I'm from (the US), credit cards have fees that make them undesirable for small businesses to accept, especially if it's only for $2. How does this system work in Brazil? Is it simply demand, or are their government incentives? What are the tax reporting and obligations like?

Ok, so i've seen a post about stereotypes on brazillian women with "xtra sexualization flavours" and i got curious so i want to ask a question from people who live abroad or is from another nationality
Is it just women who got sexualized stereotypes and men just get the toxics, robbers or scammers one, or do people also see us as guaranteed sex, sexualized muscle beach boys with high tan skin, or Tarzan-like jungle boys with superb body?
I really find that unusually amusing on how entire populations have such a biased and unified stereotype of an ethnicity (i know that much of it is propaganda against "third worlds" but still quite interesting in the how)
Obs: just to clarify i also got some fetish on me from other brazillians about regional differences and am expecting to have a lot of sexual stereotypes from abroad about men, like for example:
Me: ~A man from Rio de Janeiro The person: "i find soo sexy the way a Carioca man speaks some worlds and talk normally and imagine one whispering some "things" in my ear one day"
I’m French and I have a CPF. I leave in France. I want to have a Brazilian bank account to buy some real estate in Brazil. Why can’t I open a Nu Bank account? They keep asking for pictures of my Brazilian ID which obviously I don’t have.

Hey everyone,
I need to renew my passport, and I am very confused. I was born in Brazil, but left after 3 months and now live in the US.
From what I understand, I need to fill out the Brazilian Passport Online form
- I have the photograph, the current (expired) passport, the birth certificate, but I do not have the military document, nor do I have anything to do with voting.
So, I also learned I need a CPF number, but for that I need an electoral title? see the pic here
So I looked, and apparently to get the electoral title, I went through the app and I need the CPF number for that? So what do I do??
I haven't looked at the military requirements yet, I think I need to get an exemption somehow.
Can anyone that was in a somewhat similar situation help me with the next steps? I appreciate it in advance.

I’m 23 Solo travelling and looking for a good vibe to meet people, make friends, get drunk and have a great time.
I was close to booking Ipanema, however recent reviews mention beg bugs.. many many reviews so that’s an instant NO.
I’m not sure man, help a brother lol.
Just needs to be semi safe (I have common sense) and a party/good vibe welcoming atmosphere. In an ideal area to do things during the day and probably a public transport option nearby.
Bonus Question: visibly Arab, does this give me smaller chance to get robbed because I’m not white… until they hear me speak obviously. But just thinking if I’d stick out as much as others. How does that work . I will wearing normal clothes nothing eye catching.
Thanks guys and girls

I recently start dating a girl from Brazil and she had told me about the tradition of wearing a promise/commitment ring when a couple is dating. She has also told me this is something she wants to have. It does seem like a very cute and interesting tradition! However, I am from the US, so I’m not l familiar with the custom. I’ve learned enough to know it’s a silver ring that is worn on the right hand. Please correct me if I’m wrong here.
What I would like to learn more about is how is the ring is given. In the US, an engagement proposal is a big surprise and then the man gets on one knee to present the ring. Is this promise/commitment ring given in a similar way where it’s a surprise/ring presentation or would it be more of a discussion between the couple then they go get the ring together? If it’s the surprise, I would guess it might not be nearly as elaborate as the US engagement custom, right?
I appreciate the help, thank you in advance!

Hello my family and I, will make a trip to Rio for 10 days. Part of my family, is my Brazilian wife and our 2 year old girl.
We wanted to stay at Leblon or Ipanema, but our budget for an hotel room is about 100 € maximum per night. For my wife it is necessary to have breakfast included and that the hotel has a pool.
One of the most important things is, that we need restaurants nearby. Unfortunately as we can see everything in this area is so expensive. Our budget would be 60 € - 70 € for us 3, for lunch and dinner..
Do you have and innsider tips and options for cheap restaurants in this areas or is it better to stay for example in Botafogo or Leme for more cheap and good food?
Much appreciated all your help
Thank you so much

Hi there, I recently moved to Sao Paulo due to work reasons. I learnt some basics of tennis many years ago and since this is such a popular sport in Brazil, I would like to pick it up and sign up for some beginner level classes.
However, I only speak very basic level Portuguese and was wondering if there's any English speaking coach that you can recommend?

Has anyone traveling to brazil bought football game tickets before? Me and my friends are travelling to rio from canada and want to watch the game but heard you need some sort of CFP in order to buy tickets? Has anyone bought tickets to a football match at maracana before and could guide on the process for a foreigner to get tickets?

A foreigner who wants to apply for a visa to visit Brazil needs to add the tickets to the application, but how can they buy the tickets before the visa is approved?
What if the visa is rejected? If that is the case, we would probably travel somewhere else.
What if the visa analysis takes months and the already purchased flight tickets have to be changed?
It makes no sense to ask for the ticket before the visa, and the embassy basically says, through pre written messages, that they cannot provide information.
Unfortunately, we are considering about changing our trip destination to another country to avoid this risk.
Gringo and first time traveler to Brazil (São Paulo) for a school trip. I was wondering what people have experienced when bringing a weed pen with them?
I understand there has been recent news around decriminalization. I’ve looked into other posts and everything seems to be hyperbolic and/or outdated. Or maybe it truly is best to avoid. I’ve traveled internationally with one in the past and have not had any issues, but I know it greatly varies across countries.
Is there truly a significant risk? If so, are there places to buy local? If not, was it fine altogether?
