Thank you again for your feedback, my trusted friend! 💖 I’ve been trying to get a few more voices in there to paint a broader picture. Glad to have you 🙏
Thinking about booking a solo trip to Rio in a few weeks. I don’t speak Portuguese or Spanish. Think I will be okay or will the language barrier be too problematic? Thanks!
I’ve met plenty of people in Rio who were in the same position as you. Don’t worry! A good attitude and cheer will get you farther in Brazil than any language studies.💪
Chances are you'll love it even more! Thanks for watching and supporting ! 💪 And tell me if you guys wanna join the Swedish gringo experience in April - a five day tour with me as your "guide". You'll find all the info in my latest video 👌

You deserve support and encouragement Unique style and a lot of hard work wish u all the best New subscriber from Tunisia🇹🇳 I have one question if you don’t mind is it safe? Coz I heard lot of stories about that Thank you
Thank you so much Mehdi, you just made my morning! 🙏 Well, I can’t really answer yes to that question … but it’s not dangerous either. I have never had any safety issues in Rio or the rest of Brazil and never been robbed etc. But don’t take unnecessary risks at night, don’t get too drunk and leave expensive watches or jewelry home if you’re going to town 👌
Awesome video.... looks like RIO is still awesome.... is there any quarantine for people flying to RIO? What about flying from Europe or the Uk into Brazil?
Yes, Rio is STILL awesome! No quarantine flying in from Europe, just a PCR test at the airport. Still not allowed to enter from the UK though. Sad and unlogical.
@@SwedishGringo Thats great to hear.... Do you know if one can fly from UK to Brazil indirectly? Or does brazil have a rule that 'ppl who have been in the UK for the x number of days cannot enter the country or have to quarantine'?
@@MM-kq8gc: I’ve met Brits in Rio who had some time in other European countries and flew from there. So it should be possible … although No recommendation from my side 😅
@@SwedishGringo cheers for the info... I will try and message the embassy directly; its crazy because they are still offering super cheap flights from London-RIO. Do you know if travel from Brazil to Mexico is possible? really appreciate all your help with this!
This video was absolutely amazing . You guys are talented and give off amazing vibes. Please continue show us more of Rio❤️ I love watching you both . Have y’all done paragliding ? Haha
Kevin! You can’t imagine how happy this comment made me. Friday just got even better! Acctually had a Rio paragliding booked, but he tried to rip off the Swedish gringo with ”gringo prices” 💥 🔫
The only problem with watching all of your videos is that when I go down there next week and I'm walking around the streets I'm going to wonder where my soundtrack is.
boa noite , não é mercado é uma feira ao ar livre , (mercado é um estabelecimento fechado ok). ( good night, it's not a market, it's an open air fair, market is a closed establishment.

Why is there more Lebanese in Rio than in Lebanon? We had bad experience with taxi drivers, then they take tourists to m8s bar and charge extortionate prices, pay up or else. Personal experience. 👍
I’m usually not big on car rental even in countries suited for it. But for Brazil I would definately discourage it … although not really knowing about the options
@@Kobracommander: I’ve been in Rio for three weeks without getting tired. But some detours to Ilha grande, Arraial do cabo or Buzios and you’ll ask for more time 😅
loved this video as always! I would love to see the perfect week in rio. as you said, 3 days isn’t enough!!!
Haha, you’re gonna keep me in Rio forever! But I can’t disagree. Or why not the perfect YEAR in Rio? 😅💖🇧🇷

Can I go ? I think the party attitude is a very good approach. They are happy people.
And allow a lot of stuff !
Not closed minded!

13:57 --> Brazil is home to the world's largest Japanese community outside Japan, so that's why :)

Have you attended film school? Your videos are so well edited and scored! Just a little over two weeks till I land in Rio, I am so stoked
Thank you so much! I’m glad my hard work shows. No film school but I’m a trained journalist and video reporter
Oh cool, I am a journalist too, though semi-retired

Hahaha I feel the same sometimes. You have to imagine it without music … or play it all in your head 😅
Very Fun
Thanks man! 🙏💖
Don't get surprised by all the sushi. Brazil has the most Japanese ppl outside of Japan.
Yes, I learnt that when I was in São Paulo 💪 Step by step I’m becoming a real Brazilian 💖🇧🇷

Sushi is a trend in Brazil because Brazil has the largest Japanese population outside Japan. !
Yes, I learned that after visiting São Paulo. It’s fascinating 🤩
Why is there more Lebanese in Rio than in Lebanon? We had bad experience with taxi drivers, then they take tourists to m8s bar and charge extortionate prices, pay up or else. Personal experience. 👍
Hm … I must admit this has never crossed my mind. But my advice: always, always use Uber. It’s safer, more reliable and much cheaper 🚕
would u guys suggest renting a car?
I’m usually not big on car rental even in countries suited for it. But for Brazil I would definately discourage it … although not really knowing about the options

So living in Sweden must be so boring, people in Sweden are so depressed, freezing weather all year long, and no caipirinha

next time take me bro

Rio is not better than SP nor SP is better than Rio.Stupid need of willing that this or that is better than that. Get rid of that feeling and evolve.
