@@nordicinvestor yeah, Blumenau is cool man, I miss the city, normally visit my parents only once a year, wish had the time to be there more frequently... currently I live in Valinhos/SP, near Campinas, very nice city too, on the countryside of São Paulo state
Jag var bjuden på ett bröllop. Kom på utsatt tid. Bröllopet började 4 timmar senare. Och en annan sak. Det slog mig att det är otroligt få i Brasilien som använder hörlurar på gatan. Tack för bra info. Jag och min brasilianska sambo tänker att vi ska flytta dit inom 5 år, så kollar tacksamt på dina videos.
One thing that my friend told me that is different is to not keep things out visible from the outside of your car. For example dont keep change, sun glasses, etc out on a seat. Put it in the glove box. There was alot of break ins over small items in campinas when i was there but might be different in other areas
A popular saying in Brazil after you slam a car's door is: "Don't you have a fridge at home?", that's how carefully you're expected to close a car's door. :)
It may vary depending on the region. In Fortaleza, it’s a bit rare for locals to put towels on the sand. Bringing your own beach chairs is a bit more common if you are going to a more deserted place.
actually I see more towels or "cangas" in deserted beaches due to the lack of rentals, but it varies a lot... When I didnt have time to pack or there wasnt space in the vehicle to bring the chairs there would be no problem on using towels. Lets be honest, chairs can be a lot more confortable when you are spending the whole day at the beach.
Always a good thing to ask chap. I always make it clear to my friends when I'll start getting things ready, and when I expect people to start arriving.
We had a boat tour in Ilha Grande the other day. Girlfriend is Brazilian I'm from the Netherlwnds. They told me to be there 10AM Brazilian time or 10.15AM for a Alemão like me 😂
1. I'd say hugs are only for close/intimate people, we usually just shake hands. Now kiss in the cheek for woman is standard 2. Yea, many people are afraid to speak english and feel embarassed about it, even though they can easily sustain a conversation. Depends on the region though. More touristic places are more used to speak spanish/english 3. For house invitations, the rule is to only come at the time if you're close and will help finalize the preparations. Otherwise come half-hour later. For places, we usually try to come on time but depending on the region you can face traffic of up to 2h hours (talking about São Paulo) so it is pretty hard to account with average/worst case scenarios. 4. Take off shoes is not that common, but some people do apply it. I guess it all depends on your culture/education. My mother always made everyone in the house take off the shoes before entering. 5. Vegetarianism is growing a lot in southeast region, maybe not in the south area where you are because barbecues are cultural and a tradition of the region. 6. I think there's a misconception here, if you buy regular cheap beers, of course they won't be of quality. If you buy Lager beers that will cost you 10-20 reais a can naturally they will taste a lot better and have more "premium" to that. The cold thing is simply a cultural thing, because of the heat in most of the country we got used to drink all beverages freezing cold. I now live in Europe and I can't stand the fact some places serve you coke at room temperature. 7. LOL, this doesn't make any sense. Rider is a popular brand and a lot of kids grew up using the sandals of "Seninha". 8. This point is too complex to be discussed here, I'd say Brazillians are more aware of their surroundings than the average european. Mostly because of violence we grow up learning to be always attentious to our surroundings and watching out for other people around. Traffic can be intense yes, but I feel safer driving in São Paulo than in Spain where people literally don't give a fuck and seem like they are driving alone on the road. 9. Slaming the door is considered rude. Like you don't care about other person door (if it's not your own car) or like you're pissed about other people (if it's your own car)
@@fabricioseiffert743 ainda bem que eu falei "tem crescido no sudeste" e não "tem crescido entre os amigos do Fabrício". Tem 22 milhões de pessoas só na cidade de sp irmão
Vegetarians can have a great time here. There's tons of different fruits to buy, there's açaí which is so nutritious, in a barbecue there is usually garlic bread and barbecued onions, and white rice and potato salad. If you tell people beforehand you don't eat meat, they will be happy to have those things available or something else like a salad or barbecued veggies. If you are a vegetarian and show up at a barbecue with a big bowl of salad people will be thrilled
Great compilation! The most common Brazilian “lie”: “já vou” (Literally: “I already went”). This is used when someone is late and hasn’t even left their location or started a task. So, be patient and have an ice cold beer while you wait.
Sobre as festas: também não tem hora pra ir embora. A depender de quem organiza a festa chega a ser ofensivo. Sobre vegetarianismo: mesma coisa pra veganos. Sobre transito: evite ao maximo. Se for dirigir, pense em direção defensiva a todo momento. Very accurate all observations, congrats
Dude, you've been going to the wrong beaches! Also, there is a standard rule for roundabouts, and its the same as Europe. The thing is people don't respect the rules. Same to overtaking on the right!
Funny thing about the kiss thing. I have not encountered that once in my life. At least my family and friends have always used towels in the beach too.
@@nordicinvestor are you sure that isn't just because the beaches there are away more crowded? I swear I've seen a couple in Torres ou Capão da Canoa, but those were years ago and i don't go on these counting people exactly.

I’m arriving = “I'm on my way, but embarrassingly far from you, so I think you might wanna focus just on the fact that I’m in movement towards you, which means I will arrive… Eventually. Just don't worry!! 😃”
I live in upstate São Paulo, and we take our shoes off in my small town. However, we don't ask guests to do the same. So, as I've got it, Swedes are like the British, Dutch, and all the members of the German family.
I think on the toilet paper issue, there are multiple factors that don’t allow the paper to be flushed. First is the quality of the paper, the cheaper ones are waxy and it does not dissolve quickly in water, the water in toilets and piped water in general do not have much pressure, it is very weak compared to North America, and lastly the pipes do not have enough diameter and angle to allow for proper flushing.
I'm Brazilian and I started following your channel, two questions: 1 - Do you have Instagram? 2 - Where do you live? I live in Rio Grande do Sul and I identified with your video about winter even though we are used to it. Thanks for the content
Not being able to flush paper down the toilet must be a serious problem for foreigners, as I first heard about it over 4 decades ago from an American friend of my father.
I think that you generalized a lot. I am Brazilian in the state of Rio and I use towels on the beach with flip flops, I never wore shoes at home and still don’t, and I find it very disrespectful people who arrive late to a meeting, at oarties I don’t mind. And I think Brazilian barbecue is the best. Have tried a few except from Argentina which people say is great. Have to try first to have an opinion about that. I agree with the rest.
A questão de manter ou não os sapatos ao entrar na residência de outra pessoa é mais uma questão de bom senso, normalmente o anfitrião ira pedir para você manter os calçados como um sinal de cordialidade tentando ser o mais acolhedor possível mas se você notar que a sola deles esta suja de barro e o piso da casa do sujeito esta limpo ou tem um grande tapete felpudo num lugar onde você precisará pisar é melhor deixar seus calçados num lugar apropriado.
Nowadays Brazilians appreciate that guests take the shoes off...at least in São Paulo. And also people don't say "estou chegando" here.. they may say "estou chegando em 10 minutos" (I am arriving in 10 mimutes. São Paulo also have a lot of vegans and vegetarians people and restaurants. We also lay towels at the beach here.
I am in the mountains in Rio and there is absolutely no restaurants or anything for vegetarians. I tried becoming vegetarian here and it didn’t work. It’s impossible, couldn’t find anything, the options were extremely limited.
I think the toilet paper issue is a misconception. I'm not sure if, at some point in the past, it had anything to do with sewage treatment plants being unable to handle the paper, but I'm 90% sure that all plumbing infrastructure in Brazil is the same as in any other part of the world, and this concern seems like an unreasonable obsession. Either way, after moving to Argentina, having a bidet seems like a much better idea than using toilet paper, which also carries a greater risk of hemorrhoids.
Alot will be closed but the beach areas will be jammed with traffic and vacationers because its the holiday season. Most popular beach areas will have restaurants open.
It will be hot at this time of the year. Also the towns and cities away from the coast will be quiet and the coastal cities and beaches will be very busy.
As a Brazilian, I cant attest this guy Brazils, especially about closing doors. Regarding traffic and roundabouts it´s possible but it not very common, maybe where OP lives. He should´ve talked about hygienic douches though. We even have those in airports and malls...
Throwing paper in the toilet is the same as throwing trash out of the car window. Here at home, my father gets really angry when paper accidentally falls into the toilet.
I think we should change the culture of punctuality and house-shoe in Brazil. Valuing other people's time is very important and basic hygiene should be priority since Brazilian streets are not actually clean. It's a real paradox to see people rushing in traffic, but always arriving late.
That's already somewhat normal. I at least know a lot of people that appreciate punctuality and I also know people that leave their shoes outside the door or beside the door.
@@dantereinhardt6911 Yeah, it depends on place to place, family to family, but it's not a cultural norm. For example, Japanese people are known for this custom of taking out the shoes. Why? Because 99.9999% of them do that since like forever. It's natural for them. Switzerland is known to be the most punctual country in the world. Why? Because even their public transport system works like a clock, for decades, while the Brazilian system... well... not so much. And some Brazilian migrant suffer a LOT working at that country. Just check the vlogs and see for yourself. What I meant is that these things should become a norm, but I guess it should start since kindergarten with great emphasis through a two or three generations. Only then we would see some change. Well... to be honest, being unpunctual and dirty is the least of Brazil's problems. Sigh...
With the taking off shoes when going in someone house.. when i wear sneakers I'll take off my shoes in The house and walk with socks on. But if im wearing havaianas i keep then on so im not bare foot
Jeg er nå på bilferie i sør-Brasil og tror nesten ikke mine egne øyne! Jeg ser flere trafikkforseelser iløpet av en dag her, enn jeg ser iløpet av et år hjemme i Norge! Trafikken er helt koko, veiene har elendig standard og alt som kan krype eller gå må av en eller annen grunn være i gatene. Løshunder ✅, Flanelinhas ✅Syklister på motorveien✅
Não é verdade a questão das sandálias e toalhas de praia, depende da cidade, da região. Em muitos lugares é bem comum ir para a praia de havaianas e usar toalha de praia. E em muitos lugares ninguém aluga cadeira, impensável até pagar por isso. Idem a questão do papel higiênico. Depende do sistema utilizado na residência. Habitações mais humildes que usam fossas sépticas mais precárias preferem evitar jogar papel no vaso. E algumas pessoas oriundas desse contexto ainda mantém o hábito cultural. Mas nas instalações mais modernas servidas por redes de esgoto isto é desnecessário. Eu por exemplo não frequento nenhum lugar onde se faz isto.
Eu nunca ouvi falar de alguém que tenha o hábito de jogar o papel no vaso ou de alguma construção que tem a tubulação feita pra isso, nem mesmo na internet. Duvido muito que seja algo regional ou relacionado ao padrão da construção, já que culturalmente esse hábito é praticamente inexistente e não tem motivo $$ pra gastar mais em uma tubulação que seja apropriada para isso
@@Vinicius-kc9pq Sério? Todas as construções modernas com tubulações de 100mm ligadas a redes de esgoto suportam papel sem nenhum problema. Na minha casa e na casa das pessoas que eu conheço ninguém joga papel no cestinho, é só no vaso.
O trânsito brasileiro é de fato uma selva sem lei: excesso de velocidade , desrespeito aos sinais, falta de educação e ate mesmo de compreensão das regras, todos querendo tirar alguma vantagem para ganhar alguns segundos.
Please make a one video for Brazil public/government School education. Can anyone please make about that and also make a video for brazil cricket ground and be fond of cricket to boys and girls.
@@nordicinvestor A maior parte dos brasileiros não bebe cerveja para degustar seu sabor mas sim para se refrescar e socializar, por isso a cerveja brasileira normalmente tem pouco sabor, pouco álcool e é servida extremamente gelada mesmo em dias frios.
@@nordicinvestor I believe it depends on the region... I'm from Minas and everywhere I go here there's a bin but you can actually flush the toilet paper. The house I live was built in the late 70s, we always flush everything and it never got clogged, nor I hear about it happening in friend's or family's places. I've seen many warnings in bathrooms when traveling to other regions, though.
Some of the things you said don't make any sense, even though you live in the south, many of the things you said are no different from many parts of Brazil. I understand that maybe it's from your point of view, but ok!!!
I'm Brazilian and I hate kisses and hugs. I simply hate it. and I say this, I ask you not to do this and I want to be respected in not wanting this type of contact

Duvido muito que seja algo regional ou relacionado ao padrão da construção, já que culturalmente esse hábito é praticamente inexistente e não tem motivo $$ pra gastar mais em uma tubulação que seja apropriada para isso
@@Vinicius-kc9pq Sério? Todas as construções modernas com tubulações de 100mm ligadas a redes de esgoto suportam papel sem nenhum problema. Na minha casa e na casa das pessoas que eu conheço ninguém joga papel no cestinho, é só no vaso.
O trânsito brasileiro é de fato uma selva sem lei: excesso de velocidade , desrespeito aos sinais, falta de educação e ate mesmo de compreensão das regras, todos querendo tirar alguma vantagem para ganhar alguns segundos.
Very true, Brazilian traffic can be wild and crazy
Good sh!t, mate! (Do they even say "mate" in Sweden?) 😆😅
Thanks 👍
Please make a one video for Brazil public/government School education. Can anyone please make about that and also make a video for brazil cricket ground and be fond of cricket to boys and girls.
lol 😂 I have to disagree on the beer nth like a good iced Cold Brahma or Skol and a Beats
😂😂
3:40 pls do. I wanna know it.
Beer is ice cold to desguise bad taste: BS. Beer is cold because thats the way it should be.
Cold beer is very nice but I also like to drink a warm ale now and again
@@nordicinvestor A maior parte dos brasileiros não bebe cerveja para degustar seu sabor mas sim para se refrescar e socializar, por isso a cerveja brasileira normalmente tem pouco sabor, pouco álcool e é servida extremamente gelada mesmo em dias frios.
They should fix the toilet paper issue
In some new buildings/homes they have fixed it, but in old buildings it is difficult to resolve
@@nordicinvestor I believe it depends on the region... I'm from Minas and everywhere I go here there's a bin but you can actually flush the toilet paper. The house I live was built in the late 70s, we always flush everything and it never got clogged, nor I hear about it happening in friend's or family's places. I've seen many warnings in bathrooms when traveling to other regions, though.
This is just general rules it doesn't apply to everyone and everywhere, for example my father is super punctual... Kinda annoying
😂 Very true, these are just general rules, many Brazilians are not like this
Some of the things you said don't make any sense, even though you live in the south, many of the things you said are no different from many parts of Brazil. I understand that maybe it's from your point of view, but ok!!!
These are my impressions but certainly does not mean they are right 👍
14% of Brazilians are vegetarian. I think you should check your impressions first.
Thanks 👍
Fodase?

I'm Brazilian and I hate kisses and hugs. I simply hate it. and I say this, I ask you not to do this and I want to be respected in not wanting this type of contact
Você é um ponto fora da curva e certamente muitos te acharão mal educada.
You sound like you could use a hug :)
just weird , very sad

Ah yes! I love going to the shopping centres here in Brazil and seeing a metal trash can overflowing with stinking shit stained toilet paper! God I miss London
Uau! Você deve frequentar os piores lugares. Nunca estive em um shopping no Brasil com a situação que você descreveu.

The grass is always greener mate, we didn't even get a proper summer here for the last 2 years, just grey skies and drizzle, oh and it gets dark at 16:30 in winter too.

Annoying that brazilian toilets, or any non-North-European toilet can't handle the packages of men from the North, aka brazilian toilets are not for big men.
😂
I've seen these toilets here with a hole on the front a lot maybe rare in lower income cities as they might be more expensive.
Don't ever lend anyone any money, even R$1.00,because 99.9% you will not get it back!
We are relaxed people, life is too short to be so serious 😂
