  • Everyone we spoke to had something to say about how dangerous Rio is, so we went to the city feeling slightly on edge. Don't get us wrong, there were areas that seemed unsafe and we made sure to 'dress down' and blend in. Overall, we loved Rio and thought it was an amazing city with plenty of hikes, beaches, and city life.

    I am glad things are going well over Rio, It is a country which definitely is my bucket list. On my staying in Australia I had the opportunity to met lovely Brazilian people and know more about their culture. It is really beautiful. Hope the weather improves for both of you! Enjoy! :) Xiomara.

    I'm from Rio and I've lived my whole life here, it can be dangerous depending on where you go but it's not what people expect. If you are a tourist and wants to come here just be a little careful and you will be fine. It's not that different from other places. People here are very nice to tourists, even if we don't understand your language most people will always do everything to help you. It's a nice place so come visit, you will love it!

    welcome to Brazil. :) happy to see you enjoying Rio.
    saw that you already posted your next video in Salvador, I will be watching it next.
    I'd suggest you create more content in Brazil, we love watching tourists travelling here, and youtube's algorithm is really good pushing those types of videos for brazilians. if you film enough, you could create a video for each of the places you visit and we'd love to watch.

    Rio, Ilha Grande, Paraty, Angra dos Reis... Minas Gerais for food and mountains... Bonito for swimming with river fish...I'd check Balneario Camboriu in Santa Catarina for New Year's fireworks if possible... Still full of people at the beach but calmer than Rio I think... Gramado in Rio Grande do Sul and wineries around for a less tropical trip. Have fun! Cheers

But Curitiba airport (closer) or Florianopolis (closer) or Navegantes (closest)

    In terms of safety I think it's very different when you are just staying there for a week or two versus when you are staying there for a few months or living there. Because you're probably going to be able to spend a lot more money on a hotel room and a safe area versus when you live there you have to live in a neighborhood with Brazilians so I would say take this video with a grain of salt because those are two very different situations and that will definitely affect the level of danger. That said Copacabana is not the safest especially at night especially as a gringo.

    Jesus answered, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you and your household will be saved."
