Thread: lifestyle in Brazil

can you give me some info? thanks

What do you mean about lifestyle? Could you be more specific?

Anyway, if my guess is right. In Brazil, many people live in simple ways. There are rich who belongs in high class society, there are middle class, and there are also poor(not that poor).

Life in Brazil really depends on these classes. But somehow, as for my experience, Brazilian life is simple yet fantastic. You can have what you want as long as you work hard to achieve it.

Do you have beggars on Brazilian streets? Those who are asking tourists and locals for alms...

There are a lot of beggars in Brazil. Children regularly offer to sell you chewing gum, penny sweets or tissues whilst adults stagger up just asking for money.

Food

Breakfast:
There is only some rolls (light, they don`t have black bread), some salty cookies and butter. Sometimes there is jam or cheese. And they drink always coffee, very very sweet coffee.

Lunch:
They mostly have rice, beans and Manioc (that is a kind of potato). And they have very good meat, but always very fatty.
Then they have salad, but without any sauce and also the meals are without sauces.
There are also different kind of flours which they put on the meals.

Drinks:
Caipirinha is perfect here. It is made of Ice, Lemon, sugar and Caçaca. And you also can get it with fruits (Pineapple,Kiwi,Strawberry). This is the best way to drink it.

The Sucos (juice) are mostly very good. I like Mango, Strawberry and Maracuja and of course Orange. They are mostly fresh and sweet.

They also drink a lot of beer, but only ice cold and sometimes even frozen. And they don`t drink from the bottle. They always use cups. The best beer is Bohemia, but even this is like water
Working

Mhmmm working. It is not stress. They do only one thing and nothing parallel. They have a lot of fun and they like to talk a lot. And of course they drink a lot of coffee.
And it is also very difficult to get a job and especially a well paid one. I guess you allways need relationships.

Sport and Glammer


And they are thin, but not too thin, they are really well shaped. They wear modern good clothes,with a depth cleavage and very short skirts. In Germany people would look at me a lot if I would wear such clothes. Everything is a bit too small, but not the underwear They have so small bikinis that I don`t know how to wear it, but you allways see the hug hug slips under their trousers.

Daily Soaps/TV and the Nightprogram

They love these daily soaps. The actors are so worse but they sit every night in front of the TV and watch the always same stories. But I should not speak about that in this way, because a lot of german people do the same thing in the same way, and the soaps are also stupid.

I really like that they are dancing (Forro, Axe, Samba) and laughing a lot. You can not go out alone, because then people come to you and talk with you, but mostly they cannot speak English. So it is necessary that you speak Portuguese. And if you are a girl you have to be careful, because guys like to kiss you. Here it is like saying hello.

What I really liked were that the movies are in english with a subtitle in portuguese. So I had a great chance to understand the movies, but sometimes I understood more of the subtitle than of the english voices

Nice info kittygirl..two thumbs up for you..

yeah.. There are many beggars in Brazil. You can usually see thin children running for you asking you to buy on what they sell(usually candies, flowers, etc.). Some asking for food that you eat.
