looking for a traveler from the US coming to Floripa or Santa Catarina in the coming weeks. I need a laptop from the states and don't want to pay international taxes. If this applies to you and you're interested, I would be willing to pay $200 for the effort. Thank you

bohdandrozdov 3mo

use Grabr

paul040 3mo

Ahhh DAMN! One more project idea i can delete off my list :(

bohdandrozdov 3mo

it exists for a long time, but its not a huge business

paul040 3mo

No but it's a great idea. Have you used it?

paul040 3mo

(or is it yours?)

bohdandrozdov 3mo

I've used it

urielshark 3mo

I have used it twice. Works well. Ofc it depends how the other person communicates but it’s safe.

urielshark 3mo

Amother way to get devices without taxes, is for you to make a quick travel to Paraguay. You can to Ciudad del est, border with iguazu falls.

You can do some tourism and save some money.

Looking to run away from the NYC winter again next month. I've been to Rio twice for Carnaval but want to check out another city, if only to save costs on housing.

Some places I was considering were Salvador, Floripa, and Sao Paulo if I can convince myself I don't need to be on the beach lol.

What's everyone else's favorite during and outside of Carnaval?

rcsligar 3mo

I don’t know about carnival but I liked the barra neighborhood of Salvador. Nice beach with a couple surf breaks, nice people and some remote workers there

jcoutz 3mo

Salvador > são Paulo > Floripa if you're really into carnaval

davidsolar1 3mo

Hey guys, anyone coming to Rio for Carnival or the Rio Open? 💃 🎾

davidsolar1 3mo

Also, any whatsapp group chats for Brazil?

srodriguez 3mo

When you were there, did you work from cafe, coworking spaces, or your Airbnb/hotel? Curious to hear how big/small the community is there.

rcsligar 3mo

I would say it’s smaller than Itacare, which although is a small town has tons of remote workers. Personally I worked in my Airbnb, but saw a fair amount of people in a place called Mana, a cafe/brunch spot, and there is a really popular hostel people work in I can’t recall the name of. I wouldn’t say it’s a huge scene there but I did see some. I stayed there because I liked being able to surf most days and it has a unique feel to it.

tbf São Paulo is relatively close to the coast (~1.5h drive). Santos is large city on the SP coast that isn't bad at all, though it's not a popular nomad destination.

ffisch 3mo

Yeah Floripa is great but Carnaval absolutely sucks there 😂 I lived there for over 10 years and can tell you

NO MORE REMOTE CPFS IN BRAZIL 🇧🇷

We've contacted all Receita Federal units for our latest clients and received the same response:

The service is now only available in person, as stated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Clients must apply in Brazil or at a consulate

lucaspass 2mo

we need to hang out in floripa. Its so nice in here

tomasbernabo 2mo

which part are you staying?

hanike 2mo

Yeah, the AI did a good job... except for the fact you didn't check the content for AI madness.

hanike 2mo

And what's this obsession with açaí? And what does it even have to do with Venezia?! 😹

minonomad 2mo

lol 😂

daveblogger 2mo

What is ai madness

daveblogger 2mo

Hahahah

minonomad 2mo

When AI is inventing stuff that doesn’t exist and puts it in in your blog without you noticing it.

daveblogger 2mo

Can you give me quick short example please

hanike 2mo

Almost the same as AI hallucinations, but instead of inventing things, AI is using completely disconnected terms and references to build nonsensical content!

hanike 2mo

If you don't find anything weird or wrong in any of your articles (yes, even the English ones), then examples won't help.

hanike 2mo

Use a better AI and learn to prompt better if you want to generate content with it without proofreading yourself, sincerely.

daveblogger 2mo

0 hellucination is what user and alogritm needs

antonandreev 2mo

Hay guys, is anyone going to Pedra do sal in Rio today?

thexander 2mo

HMU

thexander 2mo

I found language exchange. Will hit that up.

The other appears defunct. Lmk if you know of anything else concrete. I looked on meetup.com wasn’t much outside of a) PT language meetups and b) user groups for various technologies

antonandreev 2mo

Do you know any English meet ups here in Rio?

daveblogger 2mo

If there is any only in co working spaces of global chains

hollymarcellaa 2mo

try mundolingo there is one tues-fri

brunampilecco 2mo

Hey. I'm Brazilian but I've never been in Fortaleza before 😅. What do you guys think about stay there like 5 or 6 weeks? It's a good option for nomads?

felipearent 2mo

Anyone in Foz do Iguaçu to have a coffee/beer or to visit a tourist place? Let me know

Hello, I'm looking for reasonable coliving in Rio, I was talking with one of the coliving, but then they told me that is overbooking, I though to arrive 15th of march, and I will be one or two months. does anybody know any possibilty to find a nice place there? thank you

bohdandrozdov 1mo

colivings are not common in Rio, but its one of the easiest cities to meet people

ivanre 1mo

yes, maybe. but is more to be confortable for place to work aswell

hollymarcellaa 1mo

i live in a coliving place, i would say it is quite expensive but its easier as a nomad than looking for a sharehouse or getting an airbnb. it's called BeNomadRio

hollymarcellaa 1mo

if you go or reach out mention my name :)

viridiana 1mo

antonandreev 1mo

Do anyone know chats about hiking in Rio?

minonomad 1mo

Sorry what is the question? I did a bunch of different hikes in Rio.

maristia 29d

Anyone been to Florianópolis on April and May? What´s the weather like? Thanks!

arthurfd 29d

April still good...
May starts to get colder, and if you are into surf, the fishing season starts on May, so a lot of beaches are prohibited to surf

maristia 29d

April good. Ok. Thanks!

davidsolar1 28d

Planning to go in May

mikecruz 28d

Hey! Anyone in floripa right now

getbrazilvisa 28d

anyone in fortaleza?

sameerkumar 24d

Hey! Any latest workarounds for using Pix as a foreigner?
I used Wonderwallet and it worked liked a charm.

The only downside for me was- it accepts USDC which was a bit expensive (atleast via Binance P2P)

urikah 23d

Heyy guys! are there some people here living in floripa?

jawills 22d

Lots of nomads live in Floripa.

urikah 22d

do you know where people hangout?

jawills 21d

There are a lot of meet-ups in Campeche

jawills 21d

I think most nomads are in Campeche or Lagoa. These areas speak the most English

jawills 21d

Might have some coworking meet-up in Centro later this week

jawills 21d

There is a drink and talk at casa dipraia layback at 7pm on April 1st

eugeniorezende 18d

Are there any digital nomads staying in Belo Horizonte?

Hello everyone, I'm traveling to Floripa in a few days for a month (April 10 to May 10). I'm looking for someone who could come 5-6 times a week to cook lunch (and dinner in advance) and do the grocery shopping. Nothing too fancy, just simple cooking. I'll be staying with my associate near Praia Mole.

Does anyone have a recommendation, or a way to get a trustworthy person for that job? That would be much appreciated!

eugeniorezende 10d

Are there any people in Belo Horizonte? Maybe thiking about backpacking through latin america ?

arthurfd 7d

If anyone is in Floripa, tomorrow we will have a sort of language exchange meetup with some locals and expats, Drink'n'Talk, its free and excellent to make friends
Send me a DM if you are interested.
