Act Like A Local in Brasil

If you desire to act like a local in Brazil, then you should know that in popular places such as Rio de Janeiro, the beach is life. Should you stay in this city, don’t forget to visit one of their beaches and take a local’s breakfast they call as pao na chapa or French bread with butter while matching it with some strong coffee. Go dress like a local on one of their beautiful shores by putting on your flip-flops and your swimwear.

When it's nighttime, you may notice that most Brazilian’s pastime is spent on drinking and socializing. Tag along with your local friend and explore drinking kiosks or beer stations while you appreciate the company of friendly locals in Brazil. Try out Brazil's famous pies and don’t be shy when someone invites you for a dance, it happens most of the time when drinking with the locals.
