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 😅)

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 2mo

Unimed hospitals overall are solid in Parana

franlitvay 2mo

Parana if you want small focus on Maringa and Londrina area

franlitvay 2mo

decent midsized cities with good hospitals

yujiny 2mo

Thank you how about in Curitiba?

franlitvay 2mo

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 2mo

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

cotemoka 2mo

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 2mo

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 2mo

Me. Ilha do guajiru

minonomad 2mo

I don’t understand. Can you explain again?

rajeevn 2mo

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.

gringo 2mo

bekacynthia 1mo

Morning, yall

bekacynthia 1mo

Anyone here in Recife/coming to Recife?

steve 1mo

In Rio for a month 👋

tomasbernabo 1mo

Hi Guys, Do you know where i can find a group where nomads sell their stuff when leaving brazil?

jcoutz 1mo

What kind of stuff? Try OLX

tomasbernabo 1mo

I know ola, mercado livre etc... i was asking for nomad groups

popojujuli 1mo

No. I’m brazilian and living at Florianópolis. It’s very hard! Do u need speak little português for surviver.

popojujuli 1mo

Anyone in Florianópolis? I live in Lagoa and want to speak more English and discuss digital nomadism.

luskira 1mo

find a local that can show you around

luskira 1mo

brazil is a bit hard to travel if you dont speak portuguese

nomads 1mo

true but you learn Portuguese fast in Brazil because of this 😄

luskira 1mo

brazilians are very friendly and will help you learn portuguese

luskira 1mo

but first they will teach you swear words

popojujuli 1mo

At São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Florianópolis have so much ‘gringos’ you can integrate this community and surviver, but for buy things in street is hard, because workers don’t speak. Knowing English is something for privileged people in the country.

wellytonplay 1mo

Hello

bekacynthia 1mo

Hello. If anyone is in Recife I can help getting around

luskira 1mo

im in sao paulo, while there's more english speakers here than prob anywhere else in the country, ive had gringo friends come visit and they say its still pretty rough to get by here without the help of a local

miguelospina10 1mo

How is the weather in floripa right now ?

jaimeadrianr 1mo

If anyone is in São Paulo and would like to go on bar hopping lmk

cotemoka 1mo

better than Sao Paulo 🤣

cotemoka 1mo

This last 3 days its been getting "steady warmer", like i've been on the beach Tue/Wed/Thu, midday to 4pm, shorts and t-shirt
Last sunday was a little cold (but less than Sao Paulo)
Today a little drizzle but ~20°C

cotemoka 1mo

Obviously it always depend from were you are if that is good or bad

cotemoka 1mo

I will say brasil is pretty easy to move around overall even without portuguese, i mean… worst case scenario, move your hands and you are done

cotemoka 1mo

What do you find complicated in buying things on the street?

rajeevn 24d

Landed in Floripa in the dark, at 1am. To me the land is unknown the language is unknown the personas unknown, do I wait for daylight or ride the good night? What if I don't find AirBnB keys? (The host is sleeping). Mystery, fear, and then the curiosity of new experiences. Took a ride, silent roads, spooky-dark hills and lagoons, then the endless sudden speed bumps, and finally got inside the house safely.

minonomad 24d

Omg

minonomad 24d

You should not have done this honestly

minonomad 24d

Don’t do it again 🤣

minonomad 24d

Happy to hear you’re safe and well at your place :)

minonomad 24d

I spent 5 months in Brazil if you have any questions to a foreigner that speaks Brazilian Portuguese and has good amount of experience there shoot me a message

allannascimento 21d

Is anyone in Curitiba this weekend?

javispain 20d

Wow!!

javispain 20d

why? floripa is quite safe, or not?

minonomad 20d

Are you local?

javispain 20d

No i am from Spain

minonomad 20d

Well for someone who has never been to Brazil I wouldn’t recommend taking an uber at night to an airbnb in a place that you have never been to before without knowing if you can actually enter in the house or not

minonomad 20d

If you’d ask any local I think they’d tell you the same. I spend in total about a year in South America and have met many locals that have given me certain rules to follow.

javispain 20d

Sound reasonable your tips
How long have you spent in Brazil? and in Rio?
Which city do you like more in Brazil for digital nomads under your experience?

javispain 20d

I would like to travel to Rio, Buzios, Floripa, Curitiba..

minonomad 20d

In Brazil 5 months in total of which I spent about 4 Months in Rio and the rest in São Paulo

minonomad 20d

Rio is the most beautiful city I’ve seen in my life. Couldn’t think of any other city that could compete for me personally. It has a heartbeat of its own. Used to stay in Copa Cabana 5 min walk from the beach. Perfect if you work remotely and want to do fun stuff in your free time. Lots of very friendly people that will look after you and show you their culture and life. The only downside is safety. You’ll have to watch out for your stuff and it’s not recommended to go around the city alone at night. With locals that you can trust I’d say it’s okay they know how to navigate. I had the best time in Rio so many good memories..

minonomad 20d

Also don’t walk into the favelas by accident 🤣🤣 first time I came (I like to run / hike on mountains) I just looked on maps for a way to go up a mountain and I ended up going quite deep into a favela until I realized people were looking so strange at me and I ended up in a really dark street, that’s when I realized I’m not where I’m supposed to be hahaha

javispain 20d

Wow wow, i believe you so much, because i have never been in Rio and Brazil, i suppose is the most beautiful city on the world, i watched many videos from youtube and looks incredible, people have joy and passion for everything

javispain 20d

Hahaha that sounds like a lot of fun, but only after it's over, haha You have a guardian angel protecting you

minonomad 20d

Yes it’s true people do have. It’s very vibrant and colorful. Food is amazing too.. if you wanna know more about Rio feel free to ask me anything you wanna know. I

javispain 20d

Great many thanks Mino! when i the flight i will ask some tips

minonomad 20d

De nada :)

mirjana 19d

Hello Guys, I’m from 29th October until 28th of November in Florianopolis. Is anyone else on the same time in Floripa and wants to hang out ? 🙂

dhruvamb 18d

Hey everyone I’m an American in Itupeva near São Paulo with a friend. If you’re in tech or media, I’d love to meet as I am

rajeevn 18d

In Centro Floripa as well there are similar areas, I ended up going deep following the map to see the mountain-top view. Initially no one was looking at me, perhaps my appearance blends-in, but at an intersection I was confused which way to go and opened the phone and trying to figure-out, then strange eyes on me - this guy not local. Luckily it was daytime.

jcoutz 18d

There's some cool cozy nature spots around there, good choice bro, lots of biking spots

minonomad 18d

You should always enter a store or cafe to check directions and pull out your phone that’s what I learned 😁

micko8 18d

Hey who knows what's the best to do in Rio during New Year eve ? But maybe one place or two incredible like a rooftop to see the fireworks than going in the streets 😈😇

minonomad 17d

I heard Copa Cabana is really good

minonomad 17d

I mean any famous beach I guess

rikgone 16d

anyone in SaoPaulo in October or Floripa in Novemeber?

rajeevn 10d

Did it again in Buenos Aires, never been to Argentina before, it was 11:30pm and the host was not there, nor left keys with the security guard. Talking with AirBnB support time passed to 1am. Hotels nearby had remote receptionist on a big screen and spoke Spanish only. Luckily found one 4-star with real reception and AirBnB covered the cost. Now I'm never doing it again.

jcoutz 10d

Welcome to latam bro haha

minonomad 10d

BRO !! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

minonomad 10d

What u doing hahahah

minonomad 10d

I hope besides this you’re enjoy your time in a little bit less risky way 😁

minonomad 10d

Enjoy BA & Argentina !! If you need recs for a good bar lmk I have a few really nice ones saved

rajeevn 10d

Yes please, bar recs.

minonomad 10d

neurofly 9d

Welcome to BA mhvpkmplbrssomt How long are you here for? If you are interested in anything more other than bars ;-), we have coworking groups, mafia game nights and many more. Let me know if you would be interested. Cheers!

luckyone 7d

anybody went to recife ? i went to sao paolo and rio and rio was really great. Sao paola a bit too busy and some sketchy moments. Well also in some areas in rio, but still can recommend going.

rajeevn 5d

I would be interested in co-working, but why does nomads com say your profile is not found (neurofly)?

neurofly 5d

I wasn’t aware of that. Seems that I need to add a profile photo for others to see my profile details, so I need to do that.

As for coworking in BA, you can find more details about the group in IG - coworkingcaba_arg

maristia 1d

Will be in Salvador for the time being until end of year. Hit me up if you want to meet up for a coconut at the beach of something.

kayosakamoto 12h

Hey everyone! 😊 I'm currently in Florianópolis and would love to experience Oktoberfest before it ends on October 25.

Is anyone planning to go, or does anyone have recommendations on the best way to get there from Floripa? I'd also be happy to join someone who's thinking of going! 🍻🇩🇪🇧🇷

dethelor 12h

Considering coming to Floripa for an event and then moving towards Sao Paolo and Rio. For the ones who have been to Florianopolis, how did you like it?

kayosakamoto 12h

I've been in Florianópolis for almost two months and really enjoy it! It's beautiful, relatively safe, and has a relaxed atmosphere, especially during the off-season. I particularly like the beaches and the lifestyle here. If you enjoy nature and a slower pace, I think it's definitely worth visiting. 🌊☀️

daveherv 12h

Hey all 👋 I'm David, an entrepreneur based in Rio. I'm hosting a casual nomad dinner in Leblon on Thu 5 Nov, it's on the Meetups page. Would love to meet you!

neurofly 11h
