Thanks for watching!
🔴 *Even though I have been in a few slums before in different areas of the world, this was one of those days that blew my mind.* It was humbling to be able to humanise this often feared neighbourhood if not for you guys watching at home but for myself. I hope you enjoy this video and if you want to contribute to the food and education of the children living here and give them a brighter future, then please consider supporting Barbara's project here:

Like I mentioned in the video, Barbara is one of those people who shines so bright for good, dedicating her entire life to helping others who are less fortunate. Beautiful soul.

Thank you for watching, Brazil is shaping up to be one of my favourites! Thank you to all the Brazilian people for making me feel so welcome in their beautiful country! *Bom Dia & Obrigado!* 🇧🇷

When you said 'hives of life' that really resonated with me. Fascinating country and City. Thank you for the content as always.
Nick, thanks for showing Brazil to the world in such a different, and good perspective. I'm brazilian and went to Rio many times, but as you now know, coming to a favela is not that easy. So it was like through you I got to know a bit more about my own country and a wonderful city. Thanks and welcome to brazilian hospitality.
I'm a canadian who spend a lot of time in Brazil and Im so happy to see you showing the world the good side of it. Cant wait to go back.
Whats next on your list bro!?
"Children can't study if they are hungry" Those words really hit home just how much Barbara's help and compassion is needed
That's a big problem - unsupervised children with no meals or heartbreakingly enough parents without the money for food.
Yea she is what the world needs MORE of
I really felt those words. Barbara is an amazing human being.
Go home
Americans future
The rapper is lowkey fire and I do not understand a word. I hope nothing but the best for that man and his career!
He is rad :)
@@IndigoTraveller please tell me where we can support him, i can't find him on spotify.
I don’t understand what he said he seems decent
i guess the taste is different lol
@@TL-Sneax exactly
I'm Italian, I lived in Brazil for 3 years, , married a Brazilian woman and adopted her child. What a country.. . You can feel the vibes living there, you breathe a different air, especially in Rio. I met lots of nice people . They didn't even know me, and they invited me to live in their houses, sharing everything they had . Obrigado meus amigos brasileiros , pra tudo o que vcs fizeram pra mim. Encontrei um monte de gente boa, sincera, querida pra caramba. Saudades de vcs todos.
Quando esse carái de epidemia acabar, com certeza vou voltar pra encontrar vcs de novo. Um abraço, 🤙🇧🇷🇮🇹
Que relato da hora. Pra mim que sou neto de uma italiana, é mais emocionante ainda. Grazie
Obrigado pelas palavras mano! Te esperamos aqui de novo!! Seja muito bem vindo 🇧🇷🇧🇷❤
Where did you live in Italy?
@@francescoantoniocavo6232 Calabria :)
@@peppe600f "Carai" hahahahaha
The people who have nothing are the most friendly and welcoming and show the most love. x
Absolutely. 💕💖💕
The guy showing his home said “Come in, come in, and make yourself at home!” 😭💕 My heart.
Beautiful people!
@@IndigoTraveller Cordiality is the word to explain brazilian spirit, according to sociologists and historians that studied our culture. But this wonderful people live under the rule of a very selfish elite. Besides, brazilian law is crazy: millions of rules that aren't enforced, so it's hard for those who try to respect the law, and it's easy for those who break it.
Who does not do it is not really brazilian hahahahaha
"Make yourself at home" is like mandatory in Brasil 😂.
From North to South, West to East, almost everyone will say that, love our spirit, our people deserve more than that quality of life.
The world needs more like Barbara
I agree, clone her a billion times and distribute around the globe
I donated! I hope she stays safe!
9:11 " Não repara a bagunça" such a Brazilian thing to say❤️❤️❤️
E tava tudo arrumadinho kkkkkk
A gente ama isso ! Kkkkkkk
Definitely
O cara não reparou, só ABRIU a geladeira do senhor kkkkkkkkkk
Kkkkkk isso me lembra meu pai
People from other contries sometimes put brazil as inferior place. I feel really happy when a channel with so high reality about Brazil is available to people of world. We have our problems , especially finantial ones. Instead our country is not only Amazônia, footbal and Carnaval. Our country has incredible people and Bárbara is such good example about our heart.
I felt that bro 😎
I am Brazilian 🇧🇷 in my head. I love Brazil! Hopefully I Will visit one day
Na verdade quem inferioriza o Brasil são os próprios brasileiros
and racial problems
Hopefully I will visit one day to Brazil
I love Barbara's concept of getting food as a reward for when you have studied. It's quite briliant.
Yes, very innovative!
Same thing Pavlov did. She knows that, she is in education. Beautiful example of science in practice, very smart lady.
Where’s the info tho to support pls?
In that situation is good and effective but at the same time is sad because food as a reward means that the kids are hungry.
@@jebatevrana actually her idea is more in line with Skinner´s operant conditioning.
5:11 That little doggy stopping what it thought was a fight. So cute 🥰
Haha yeah, security dog!
Yeah its kind of a fight dance and called Capoeira
Capoeira is One of the most beautiful artes suaves to watch. Just absolutely fascinating
@@Ozi99 ohh how stupid the dog was to not know it...
You really should try integrating more local music in you’re montages rather than generic travel vlogger stuff. Would really elevate the immersion. Love the series , best of luck
That is true
so true
Agree with this 100%. Could even pay royalties or pay them a fee to license the use of the music to help them out!

he could get a copyright for that
I was born, raised and still living in Rocinha. Thanks for the video! Our favela has many issues, but we are still very proud of it. We welcome anyone who wants to meet us and get to know our homes.
I’d love to visit
Something I found very strange at first was the juxtaposition of Rocinha on the slope with some of the most expensive apartments in Rio right in front of you. It's like a slap in the face, but I'm a working class idiot here in Canada and see the same thing here, although different due to our economy. I really, really miss Brasil.
@@BillyN31 Dude.......go. You'll never want to come back.
@@minkorrh My cousin is married to Brazilian woman, her family has a small coffee farm in town near Rio. I helped design an aqua park (aprox $60,000 construction cost) but the mayor demanded some iffy things which my cousin rejected, so he was denied the necessary paperwork to actually start building it, or I might've lived there helping him run the park. He built a vacation house instead but even his Brazilian wife comes back to the Netherlands, where my cousin and I are from.
Thanks for demystifying the place
My pleasure!
@@IndigoTraveller does it actually work to exclude the trigger words, such as Gang etc. in the subtitles in order not to get demonetized by TH-cam? Did this video get demonetized? I'd be really glad for an answer!
If I was you, I wouldnt believe in that.
@@rodrigoroddy007 so why did he do it?
@@IndigoTraveller please enlighten us :D
I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦 and I've been to Brazil. It's a beautiful country.🇧🇷
Very beautiful
Beautifully flawed country
Most of South africa is europe whites skin people where is black people
@Vera Lucia your cute
are you from africa and white?? What
I love Brazil and Brazilian people!!
One of my greatest experiences was visiting Rocinha. I donated 20 Euros today for Barbara’s Project. Thank you.
We too... but put it on MONTHLY - hope you do too :)
The woman running the non-profit is amazing, thank you for sharing her page!
Beautiful woman!
What was the page I missed it
People like Barbara restore faith in humanity, she definately won my heart ❤️
we love barbra man..
Much love from Ghanaian America!!!Brazil is beautiful place with beautiful people. Alot of the ancestors from Africa was transported to Brazil!! One love
wow this is so beautiful. we are so concerned with other unimportant things sometimes. its so refreshing to see how pure humanity can be. Those really welcoming people that let you in their house, the aspiring rapper, and the beautiful women whose running the non-profit for the children. Beautiful people of Brazil. Love from the U.S.A
Thanks for enjoying my country with an open mind.
It is beautiful :)
@@IndigoTraveller means a lot to a Brazilian to listen to this. And if you wanna eat the best food you ever had in your entire life, visit the state of Minas Gerais. I’m sure you won’t regret.
BRAZIL IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COUNTRIES I HAVE EVER VISITED ❤. ONCE AND NEVER FORGET 😍❤.

@@user-yv2li6vj2v obrigado 😊
Yes, we love Tunisia.
In fact, the common brazillians (not the right winged ones) love all foreigners.
@@AlfredoNader we are all brothers ❤️💚
@@IssamMbarek I love both countries, I have a lot of admiration for both. Love Tunisia and Brazil from America🇺🇸❤️🇧🇷❤️🇭🇰
I wish to be there. I love brazilian people. They have such a big hearth. All the best from Poland !
I was born in a slum. Today I live outside the country. I know this reality well. My heart will always be from the favela! Congratulations on your work.
"Free you mind, make no judgements" I'll take it. Barbara made me cry she spoke so beautifully Masha Allah ❤️😍
Absolutely! Beautiful souls.
I'm Brazilian living in NY and there are so many Brazilians that talks down Brazil to other people here. Thank you for showing how amazing our people are and how beautiful our country is. Are you going to the north-east part of the country?
Thanks Dan! Will be going very North and East but not Northeast specifically :)
Actually there are no East region in Brazil, yes I know a little strange. The states Maranaho, Piaui, Ceara, Rio Grande Do Norte, Paraiba, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Sergipe and Bahia makes up NorthEast Region of Brazil
Brazil looks amazing wanna visit one day love to NY and Brazil from Denmark
Even some brasilians dont see the big image from inside the frame. It's the soul of Brazil land nature and the spirit of the ppl thats very unique . When its come the evil and crime and violence it's sad but that's everywhere in the glob its just doesn't fit the brazillian ppl I know for a fact one good Brazilian citizen with make forget 100.s of bad ppl and every good experience u had in Brazil will effect it life positivity for ever and u will forget the bad ones . Obrigado mano 😋✌
Ou povo e legal porque a favela e certo pelo certo tlgd deixa eles errar pra ver se nois não te mostra ou ruim do Brazil
This amazing woman working for the children of Rozinha, moves me to tears. It feels almost impossible to stop them. She has got a wonderful concept. She is an absolute hero. Hope she's going to go on doing this incredible precious work for many more years.
Thumbs up for Barbara!
❤️❤️❤️
Great soul she is ❤❤
I appreciate how Indigo Traveler shows the reality of each of the countries that are visited. No matter how rough or dire the situation may be, he still somehow manages to show the beauty of the countries. This is true journalism, something we lack in mainstream media.
I have never been to Brazil but my son lived there for 2 years. He said the people are wonderful! We are talking about visiting together. Thanks for the video!
There are angels down on this earth, just like Barbara
Thank you for filming those angels
Man this peoples energy is beautiful ❤🥰😍
Everyone is talking about Barbara but please do not forget the rapper guy and his story ,the guy went through a lot and still pursuing his dreams
Respect !

What is sh...

@@vitor2009ization I didn't understand what you said up there
Why didn't you just say the word? I'm confused. In that case the word you're looking for is 'shitty'
@@Mark778. shit
I love the passion of these people. They are very resilient. Such a humbling way of life.
Thanks again Nick.....and the people of South America! Safe travels! 🙏
Thanks, Dwayne, you are so right!
That woman running the charity is a lovely person. So nice to see people like herself being so giving and open hearted.
The beauty of that ladys soul brought a tear to my eye
I honestly "love" how these foreign folks come to Rio and excitedly and fearlessly enter the favelas to explore it while we, folks from Rio ourselves, are scared like hell to even get close to it. 😂
Glad you enjoyed! The next video is more exploring of the city and another favela
Wow! Can't thank you enough for posting this. This is a huge eye-opener even for us. Bless you!
Yep im from Venezuela and this dude went to Petare most dangerous slum in Venezuela and one of the most dangerous in Latin america i have never even tried to get slightly close to Petare but he went in with political parties who help the needy in there and he went with people who knew the hood so he was lucky he didn't get killed at sight he really is risking his life doing this I'm sure those slums in Brasil are as dangerous as the slums in Venezuela i don't recommend anyone to go there.
@@thaismbl93 why does the government do nothing? . well i'm Detroit so i'm used to violence.
@@cominooculto how do you manage to live in Venezuela? isn't in crisis?
I think this is definitely one of your best videos. Personally I've always thought of Favelas as crime ridden slums and never stopped to even consider the fact it's filled with normal people trying to live their lives in a normal neighbourhood
Thank you Douglas, I really enjoyed making this one :)
A real eye opener to see Brazil up close and personal. Beautiful people.
I was lucky enough to travel all over South America back in 2008. Brazil was my favorite & the people of Rio were so gracious, amazing food and the culture...
Thank you for showing off this amazing place. Miss you Brazil, you have my heart🤍🤍🤍
Very beautiful indeed, glad you got to experience it!
Hi dear
I am visiting Brazil for the first time soon. Everyone tells me Brazil is the best country to visit in South America and Brazilians are the kindest humans.
Salute from East Africa
Brazil is not just Rio
@@mach2222 yep I know. Visited Santos, Caruaru, Pelotas, etc too
I just donated 20 euros to that school hopefully it helps
Thank you!
Be careful
Make sure your money goes to cause not nicks pockets
it certainly must have helped a lot ... 20 euros it's a good help
It went to support more drug habits
I donated too, happy to have done it😁
As a brazilian who lives in a total different part of the country (Gramado town), thank you for demystifying life in the favela. We can all see now how many good people live in those places.
When in Brazil I mixed with the poor and the rich. I absolutely adored the poor, they were honest, true loving people. The people who I really struggled with were the rich.their arrogance, their way of life and racism shocked me. Guess we call it in the UK new money.
The funny thing to me is, as an American, if I visited Brazil or really any other place, the LAST thing I'd do is go " Hey can somebody take me to the slums?!" ... the first thing I'd ask someone is "Hey bro, where do all the hot chics hang out ?? Thanks!" Lol.
@@Ser_Arthur_Dayne I live in the south of Brazil, we don't have many favelas, so I think you should come here, there are a lot of hot girls hahaha, we have a kind of party we call "raves", it's usually where the best girls go.
edit: Another good party is the “Planeta Atlantida”, where all the people from the south get together once a year, it's a huge event.
@@kapella9592 Bro I'm definitely down for a Brazilian rave! I am a fall-down drunk, and usually pretty easy to get along with - but I am just as likely to get drunk and wake up with a hot chic as I am to get drunk and wake up captured by some gang of robbing murderers who sent the hot chic to drug me, then get my ass kicked and robbed and wake up in an alley somewhere. Good times, good times! Let me know what time the party starts! Woooohooo!
R u white
I was born in Rio de Janeiro, in Leblon, and I can say with confidence that my people are so incredibly positive and happy, despite the hardships. It's so inspiring.

@@oshaba12 ok
It made my day to send a few dollars to Barbara. I don't need a scorecard to know the money will be well spent. Safe travels, Nick.
Beautiful, thank you Jim!
Im gonna help to!
The mexican people have a sense of national pride because of their history. Not all countries have this attitude
That is why Mexico always says Viva Mexico!

I just donated to Barbara's Paypal. Thanks for sharing her cause and for letting us see such a beautiful part of a beautiful country
Can u also send me some donation pls?

This video for me as a Brazilian that does not live in Brazil is so so emotional.. really a mix of teary eyes of memories and the desire of life for our beloved Brasil
I am pledging a monthly donation to Barbara. Just an amazing woman, and such an important thing she is doing. Gracias Barbara!!!
Hi dear
Obviously not enough education on wearing a stupid mask though...
@@-Awareness tons of people in Europe (Germany for example) aren’t any better... and the guy in the vid didn’t wear one either... it’s sadly only a fair few who actually choose to do it all the time when there aren’t any rules
What you have done is really honorable, but just letting you know that we don't speak spanish hehe. Thank You is Obrigado in portuguese.
@@-Awareness this isnt on the people tho brazilian president portrais Covid-19 as fake and not real. How are the people gonna be educated about the virus when the president doesn’t even bother to invest into the educating of the virus.
I'm unemployed, but I have a really good life where I am so I felt motivated to donated €10 to her. What an incredible person and such beautiful people there. I hope everyone makes something of their lives there
10 euros are like 60 brazilian reais! A huge help for her
She appreciates
You put 6 meals on the kid's table mate, thank you for that.
Can you please send me the link to donate
Your videos matter, my friend. My wife and I were just in Rio last week and at the top of Corcovado, we ran into Barbara, who was giving a tour at Christ the Redeemer. I recognized her from your video when I heard her speaking Italian and it was such a pleasure to meet her and thank her for all the good she is doing in the world. While we were in Brazil we toured Rocinha as well, and it is as vibrant and beautiful as your video describes. I donated 50 Euros to Barbara's project. Thanks for making this content man, keep it up!
2:24 you can see the guy almost tearing up. Brazilians are good people!
whre are you from?
yeah good people who need some help in the way of being
Amazing filmmaker 🇧🇷 I went there last year and loved Brazil. The way it’s portrayed in media is unfair the people are so fun and friendly
Pode me dizer como?
When I was in Rio I entered two favelas. The first one with a Brazilian friend to hike up ‘Dois Irmões’. It was super chill, we took a mototaxi up the hill through the favela. The second one I entered alone, thinking that I already know how it works. This time I also wanted to hike up the hill the favela was built on. In retrospective this obviously wasn’t such a good idea. Even the locals, e.g. my mototaxi driver asked me wth am I doing here. He didn’t even know were I wanted to go lol. Nevertheless, he took me up the hill. Were I got off there was a women who my driver asked something. The women too didn’t know the path I was looking for to hike up either. And she also told me that I am crazy entering the favela alone, it’s dangerous. But, instead of telling me to immediately leave the favela she even showed me around a little bit and I enjoyed beautiful views of Rio. So, all in all it probably was not the best idea to enter the favela without a local but therefore got to experience their incredible hospitality and I felt that they genuinely cared for my safety.
I'm just glad you didn't get hurt. Rio's slums are really different from one another, specially regarding safety and entertainment. There are so many different criminal groups dominating different parts of the city and they treat people and tourists very differently. But all in all it's nice you got to enjoy nice views and good hospitality
@@heronboaventurabelmokandra9575 Yes, you are totally right. I came to realize that not every favela is the same. There is safer en less safer ones, more touristy and less touristy ones.
@@harzerroller100 Very interesting. In the next video, we go to a different favela that was way more intense than this one. The vary hugely. Thanks for sharing and glad you are all good :)
@Aldo Steinbach you are so right. Most vloggers only focus on the favelas. Therefore, sending a message Brazil is only slums. The wealth is only touched upon for a few seconds. there is also an entire group of people in between.
@Aldo Steinbach you are so right!
i'm Italian, from Amalfi Coast....so i'm used to beautiful landscapes...but man! Heaven must look like Rio's views
Just donated! I love what Barbara is doing for the community. ❤️ thank you for bringing us to this area of Brazil and letting us see the people who live here.
I love Barbara and her work. I’m very appreciative of what she’s doing! Thank you for showing this window into a favela in Brazil. 🙏🏼🙂💕
Hi dear
"if ya steal they gonna cut your hand off ya know" - 2 min later: "such positives vibes here" xD
Justice brings joy to the righteous, but terror to evil doers. -Proverbs
@@mkayokay3192 Saint Joseph terror of demons Ora pro nobis.
I think they meant that if somebody steals something inside the favela the robber is going to get his hands cut, he said there are some laws
The problem is who 'enforce' these laws. They have the death penalty and tribunals of crime. They don't get lawyers and the judges are drug traffickers. They criticize the legal system and then they create the most unfair legal system in the world. Many innocent children are sentenced to death in these kangaroo courts. The hypocrisy is suffocating:(

@@IndigoTraveller Thank you so much for shining a light into different realities and giving a voice to the most vulnerable/destitute people elsewhere in the world. Unfortunately, it will require major mindset transformations to change for good most of these communities/realms. The scale of challenges is huge but almost nothing is impossible too. Let's just hope for the better.
Stunning views, beautiful people, just amazing. Barbara is exceptional - rare to find true kindness and intelligence like that. Love waking up to new videos, thanks Nick!! 🇧🇷
Thank you!
Been to Rio de Janeiro twice, and they are some of the most welcoming people I've ever known. It's definitely a place everyone needs to see in their life - history, beauty, and fantastic food.
I found this channel yesterday and this Brazilian series are some of the most beautiful and fascinating videos out there. Thank you for doing this

Such beautiful people people, I donate some money for Ms Barbra, love and light from Sudanese in Washington DC
Brazil is next level! Loving this series brotha!
Cheers Chris!
It was specially beautiful the scene with Barbara and her passion to help people in the favelas.
I am rooting for her mission!
This video made me so nostalgic i feel like crying.
I was born and raised in a very similar place to these favelas, but "fortunately", it went on and quickly evolved into a modern and wealthier area along with many other places around the country.
Everything is more accessible and the "quality of life is better", but life is certainly not easier.
I do miss the humbleness, the friendly and family oriented culture... I miss how there were less things to worry about and how your whole world was just a small community of people who were very close throughout your life.
This channel always does a beautiful job at capturing so much of the depth and nuance all our cultures have.
Fantastic episode. Peace to my brothers and sisters of Brasil✌️❤️😁
Great video. I lived in that area right next to Rocinha and Vidigal for 10 years. Nearly all of the people who worked for more well off families as housekeepers, cooks, nannies and drivers, lived in either Rocinha or Vidigal. The same for the workers in supermarkets or hair/nail salons, restaurant workers, drivers, barraca stands at the beach, in the “nice” areas, but they live in the favelas. To live in Rio is extremely expensive. And they have their own families to support. They work hard.
Thank you. Yes, very hard working people.
É verdade!
Watching this makes me so humble and appreciateive for the little things I have.thank you sir for this documentary
Thank you for making that journey to show us who live far away what beautiful people live there.
I was in Rio in 1986.. it was amazing, even got a tour of the favalas. My parents took me as a young boy
Awesome documentary on Brazil Nick. Real and raw footages.
Thanks brother!
Just can’t thank you enough for this realistic and sometimes heavy view. What shines the most everywhere are the kaleidoscope of welcoming loving people.
You know, I've been watching a lot of youtube travel videos over the last few years, but if there's one guy I'd like to sit down with and have a beer, it'd be you.
Great content as always and very genuine. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for spreading awareness Nick. I just donated to their project and I'd like to call out to everyone: if you have even one dollar to spare, do it, it goes a long way.
Thank you very much, Stefan!
Dude, u did on hell of a job with this one. I don't know how often I got the chills watching it. Really touching stuff on so many levels. Thank u.
When I have traveled the Philippines in the poor fishing villages I have met people that make me feel like a superstar just being the average guy. There are dangerous places that have poverty but many poor places are not as dangerous as many might think. Poor doesn't mean bad people...as many can't help the struggle they have to pull out from under. The real character is from people who start out with really zero and pull themselves out and climb on top..those people are the real superstars in life.
I love your videos, what u'r doing man. Glad to be one of your supporters. Stay safe and share us more knowledge about the world, and people.
Incredible video here Nick! Even though I saw many videos about life in favelas, your interactions with the people showed me how humble and resilient they are, so thank you for changing my vision once again!
Que país tão lindo. Um abraço de Portugal!
Salve salve galera de Portugal

Thank you for showcasing these wonderful people.. eye opening and inspiring
21:20 I loved hearing about Barbara's project. It's absolutely amazing what she's doing.
You are a precious human. Moving, thought provoking as always. Salute.
I did this tour in 2019 around the same Favela and can confirm it’s the biggest eye opener ever. Yes Brazil is dangerous but tourist hot spots are the main dangers where u get bag snatchers. Rochinha is beautiful, the people are beautiful and the food is beautiful. If you want to do a tour like this just check for a local guide on Air BnB
Beautiful.
I also did that tour and people were super friendly
Brazil is not just Rio
Rio is really intriguing and mysterious for foreigners(even for brazilians) but Brasil is huge, there are a lot of beautiful and a bit safer places that you could visit.
This is the Brazil that makes us proud
i love how he put it in the beginning and how emotional he got describing at 1:31. made me emotional too to see the passion from where he comes from
Thank you for sharing this video, I just donated to Barbara, what she said really touched my heart. Greetings form Costa Rica!
Thank you for this videos! Even though I'm Brazilian, I don't get to travel around my own country so often, so your videos are actually allowing me to know parts of my own country! Keep going with the great work!
That is a great honour! Thank you!
The one thing I really liked about Brasil when I was actually vacationing (before I lived there) was the fact that there were no 'resorts' catering to North American tourists. It's actually a good thing for Brasil that North America thinks it's too violent. Keeps away the rifraff, spoiled idiots, and those who will do nothing but complain about the lack of english spoken. It took me 4 months to become conversationally fluent, and I found it pretty easy. Com certeza, eu amar meu segunda pais.
Just discovered your channel bro and your videos are humbling and beautiful, so nice to see the incredible work and community the residents display. I hope these videos keep inspiring donations to very important causes
Barbara was so eloquent when describing what she was doing in her life and what she held as important. I was crying before she finished.
