Intro Although Rio de Janeiro is famous around the world as a touristic city, I feel a considerable lack of tourist oriented information at the airports and a lack of care for the main tourist attractions.

At Itacoatiara Beach there are two BIG rocks to climb on the left side of the beach. Many people go up daily for exercise. Others go up for the spectacular view.

A local craft /Brazilian art store in the heart of Ipanema, very close to the beach, in Rio de Janeiro. Everybody knows how rich of art and culture is Brazil, the weird thing is that is very difficult to find a decent store, with no-cheesy stuff to buy for nice prices. Brazil & Cia products are sele...

In Germany, there aren´t many places you can go to for a plastic surgery, or one where the results are completely satisfying. After much online researching, I found many results, and most of these seemed to be directed to a clinic in Brazil. That didn´t impress me, seeing as people there tend to b...

I ran across this store in Ipanema called "Garota de Ipanema" which was near the hostel where I was staying. My friend and I needed new beach gear to get the proper Brazil beach experience, so we went in looking for pretty much everything we´d need for the next week or so. They have these beach she...

I have been to Rio many times, and even though I am from Brazil, I am a tourist as well in Rio since I have never lived there. Rio is a fascinating city with lots and lots to do.
