urikah 2mo

Heyy anyone does ecommerce/digital marketing in floripa?

franlitvay 2mo

can also use truther wallet, meru for instance

luskira 2mo

im not in rio but the places i suggest depend on what you want to do

luskira 2mo

if partying there's some nightclubs near lapa that are great

luskira 2mo

last time i went there were like 3 nightclubs in one street, you could pick whichever you wanted

luskira 2mo

if you have a bit more time in the place i highly recommend places away from the center of rio, like Búzios, Peró, etc, its at Regiao dos Lagos

luskira 2mo

takes a bus to get there, its very far away from the center but its pretty good

luskira 2mo

lots of beaches etc, really good to go with a group of friends

luskira 2mo

another place that's awesome is Ilha Grande, but only go if you can spend at least a week there, its a huge island with beaches, waterfalls, hikes, etc

sergio8215 2mo

Ah sounds good!! Thanks a lot 🙌🏼@luskira

josecote 2mo

just in case peanut pix goes offline (which sometimes happen) you also have yodl

I use both daily , no problems

josecote 2mo

edixefema ☝️

luskira 2mo

danimim 2mo

i prefer peanut, i know it works outside of brazil

josecote 2mo

both work brazil argentina Asia some places

I use 90% peanut but sometimes peanut pix services are off or paying something big yodl gives a better fx rate

josecote 2mo

like now 🤣

tomasbernabo 2mo

You can use belo, works both argentina and brazil

sajustine 2mo

sajustine 2mo

Belo only works for Latin American residents, no?

sajustine 2mo

Thank you :)

tomasbernabo 2mo

No, I think you can submit your passport

josecote 2mo

also maybe useful for anyone in the future: https://comparapix.ar/

josecote 2mo

There you can see most of the current ways to pay with pix using crypto or normal USD and the fx rate of them

luskira 2mo

Hey guys, anyone currently in Balneário Camboriú (BC) here?

aramwalker 1mo

Hello everyone! Did anyone encounter problems trying to rent a flat for long-term? How did you solve it?
Most of the homeowners accept only insurance based guarantia (seguro - fianca). Seguro finaca automatically rejects applications from persons without CPF history.

frank 1mo

Try QuintoAndar. We have American friends that have apartmetns through them. They handle the insurance and everything. You pay your rent through their platform.

aramwalker 1mo

Unfortunately they do not accept foreigners without residential status, like CRNM

rajeevn 1mo

Can I get by using only English for a one-week trip to Florianópolis?

efraimmgon 1mo

No. Just have google translator ready on your phone.

efraimmgon 1mo

Middle/higher class can speak some, but waiters, etc don't

larslillo 1mo

Any decent coworking spaces in SP in Paulista/Centro suitable for focus work?

So many to choose from, many pricey, and everyone seems to be a huge hassle some way or another to sign up to and try out 😄

josecote 1mo

In oscar freire you can go to BETC Havas Cafe, pretty chill almost empty on weekdays pre lunch
Second floor nobody is there

josecote 1mo

between $3-5 usd the coffee

josecote 1mo

If that’s too pricey, you can go to Teia Coworking Vergueiro instead (it’s inside Centro Cultural São Paulo, on the lower floor)
You scan the QR code, register (if you want) and they have the coworking space for free. You can also stay in the library if you want to instead of being inside

larslillo 1mo

Oh great, thanks, seems like amazing options I had not found otherwise! Not at all too pricey for coffee and a place to work

larslillo 1mo

Tried BETC Havas today and it was a great pick!

josecote 1mo

anybody there? everytime i go i'm kinda the only one 🤣

jaimeadrianr 1mo

josecote 1mo

josecote 1mo

jaimeadrianr 1mo

rajeevn 1mo

Which area in Floripa nomads stay? North or South? Any specific area name?

bekacynthia 1mo

Hey guys!
My name is Rebbeka, I'm from Brazil (Recife). I would love to meet new people and hang out. Also, no one speaks English here, so...😅

miguelospina10 1mo

Does anyone know if September is a good season to visit Floripa ? I’ve heard that it tends to be cold during that time.

larslillo 1mo

It has been crowded enough the last few days :) I don't know about mornings, though, I usually start working after lunch!

efraimmgon 29d

Not so good for beach season yet, but the winter season ends in september

kayosakamoto 21d

Hi everyone! I just arrived in Florianópolis and am currently staying for 4 days while looking for a long-term/mid-term place to stay.
I’m looking for recommendations on safe, budget-friendly neighborhoods or direct leads for apartments/rooms. Key priorities for me are:
Safety (safe to walk around during the day/good area)
Affordability (good value for money)
Reliable Wi-Fi for remote work
If you have any suggestions, active listings, or local tips on where to look, I’d greatly appreciate your insights! Thanks in advance! 🙏

rajeevn 21d

DMed.

rajeevn 19d

Anyone here who doesn't speak Portuguese and from North America, driven a car in Floripa and mainland? Are the road signs and rules similar?

urielshark 19d

My favourite areas are Campeche and Lagoa.

Floripa is pretty safe, I wouldn’t worry a lot about it. Focus on what are your priorities like: cafes, close to the beach, good modern gym, close to a mall… and go for it.

urielshark 19d

The island is considerably small, so you can always take an uber to wherever you want

nthnjns 19d

I've driven all over Brazil in a rented car. Only thing I'd advise is watch out for random speedbumps on the highway 😂 otherwise it's pretty safe. Floripa is the safest, but I've also driven all over Minas, the Coconut coast, all the SP coastline, and to the Ilhas without issue. Cars are fairly priced at the airport and easy to book and return.

jjames 18d

The random speedbumps are real 😂

jjames 18d

Welcome!
I prefer Centro as it's close to everything and well-connected, it's also slightly cheaper than Campeche and Lagoa too for rentals. Floripa is generally very safe all over but the safest neighborhood is likely Jurere Int'l (It's fancy, and FULL of babies/new parents 😅)

lukasd 18d

Anyone here kitesurfing in Ceará / Fortaleza?

rcsligar 17d

Anyone been to itacoatiara beach in niteroi?

yujiny 13d

Hey everyone any recommendations for private hospitals and healthcare in Brazil for childbirth ?

Looking for around a smaller city like in state of Parana

franlitvay 13d

Unimed hospitals overall are solid in Parana

franlitvay 13d

Parana if you want small focus on Maringa and Londrina area

franlitvay 13d

decent midsized cities with good hospitals

yujiny 13d

Thank you how about in Curitiba?

franlitvay 13d

well curitiba is a great city but its def not small hahah

franlitvay 13d

my parents live there, def most convenient city in south brazil

close to sao paulo. close to santa catarina beaches. solid southern cone flights

philipp2403 11d

Hey, I’m arriving in Salvador on Sunday and I just read now that you need a return ticket or a ticket out of the country for entering. How strictly is that being handled?

jaimeadrianr 11d

I enter through São Paulo and they just asked me how long I was going to stay. Said 2 months. I bought the fake return ticket just in case but they didn’t ask me for that

josecote 11d

Never heard about the return ticket thing on Brazil
I've never had problem (but I'm Mercosur). Some european/asian friends have entered from Salvador, Rio, São Paulo... always asked why, tourism, and perfectly fine.

rajeevn 11d

I did for costa-rica, purchased a refundable ticket the day before (for a date after 3months) and after the immigration cancelled that ticket and waited for a police visit.

sajustine 11d

Me. Ilha do guajiru

minonomad 11d

I don’t understand. Can you explain again?

rajeevn 11d

Immigration asked for an onward ticket, I booked a ticket to El Salvador, they noted down some details from the ticket. I was concerned if cancelling would notify them, took a risk, there was no problem once I was inside and out before the limit.
