Hey everyone - I couldn't unfortunately get myself to Rio, so I had my assistant and now co-host Leah take on the interviewee role.
What did you think about the video? Is Rio de Janeiro for you?
Amazing❤
Love it and everything is true
the tall finish girl is racist
We'll done ❤
I like the girl who's holding the microphone ❤🎉
I'm from Poland and I love Brazil very much, I've been there several times and it's a unique country in the world, I really like Curitiba, Rio de Janeiro and regions like Goiás and Minas Gerais. They are cool and beautiful places, I found the interview with the woman from England and Finland very interesting. It's very impressive that a person from England complains about the way they dress, since in England many girls go out into the street almost naked in the cold 😂, well, it seems that the woman from Finland doesn't know her country to talk about nature, it was It's very funny that she said not to trust Latinos and her 2 children, hers are Latino, it's a bit hypocritical I think 😂, I've been to Colombia and the way women dress isn't very different, not to mention that in Colombia women offer sex on the street out of nowhere. I think the country is much more conservative than Colombia, this interview for me was just prejudice and hypocrisy from the interviewees, Brazil is a unique country and rich in many things and for me the real country is not Rio de Janeiro nor the big capitals more yes, the countryside and the cities where you see the true culture and friendliness of the people and security and I have been to many countries in South and North America on the continent there are only two countries that have the capacity to be powers, the United States and Brazil I recommend countries to get to know the real Brazil but not Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo, a hug to all Brazilians🙂🇵🇱❤
A hug my friend, long live Brazil and Poland 🇧🇷❤🇵🇱
Welcome to Brazil.

Important to know the culture in Rio is different from other regions.
Perfect! I'm brazilian. You said exactly what happen. Uno thing is, to walk around the touristic beaches of "zona sul". Another completly different thing is "to know about brazilian lifestyle, culture..." The real way of life in diferent places around Rio, and more!! Arould of Brazil!! Me, as brazilian, almost don't realize my own brazilian culture when I walk around these places of vídeo lol
Rio has dozen of cultures within. And Brazil has hundreds.
Each place has its sociological aspects.
Exactly! As brazilian, I can say it. If a tourist wish to meet our cultures, our way of life, NEVER should be only around Copacabana , Ipanema, Leblon ,Barra da Tijuca... @@--th
Thank you! It is so frustrating to take Rio's culture and say that that represents the country.
Important to know not all cariocas are the same. The carioca that you find at night doesn't represent all the cariocas.
The finnish lady with the black dress said that brazilians date multiple people at the same time it's quite strange to me... i've lived in Scandinavia and especially in the capitals like Copenhagen or Stockholm young people and young adults date multiple people so much more than brazil.
What she said was a bit exaggerated... There are people who do this in Brazil, but generally not everyone
That's very true so I laughed derisively when she mentioned that and I live in Stockholm. It was complete BS.
She defined Brazil based on slutty Brazilian women and womanizing Brazilian men.
If she is in Rio, the problem is the liberal people. If she moved to inner Middle-West cowboy culture or South Brazil, the problem would be that people are too much traditional and conservative 🤨
@@luisamaria3068In Rio there are also conservative and traditional people. And in the south there are also womanizers and sluts.
I am married to a German .He loves Brazil and knows the differences that we have over here; all our states;accents, culture,the way of living. The problem is that the video was all about Rio and foreigners living there.I truly like Rio but comparing to Germany (my second home) Rio is the Koln , Frankfurt is São Paulo and Munich is Belo Horizonte. We have more than one state here,so don’t generalize a Country just by one state.
Mano, sobre qual aspecto Belo Horizonte seria equivalente a Munique? kk
E São Paulo parece mais uma mistura de Berlin com Frankfurt, pra ser preciso.

You should interview people in other places than Rio.
but thats the most likely place she will find foreigners for her foreigner culture shock videos. other places are not as touristy.
@@gliboperuta9213There are several other places that have a lot of foreigners Sao Paulo, Northeast, South
Definitely no! There are lots of gringos in Santa Catarina and in states of Northeast.@@gliboperuta9213
Yes Acre and Amapá
i never heard about these places. everyone in the world knows rio and the world famous copacabana beach and christ the redeemer. so naturally all tourists who wish to travel to brazil go to the most famous tourist place of brazil because rio is the postcard of brazil and people love that place the most. second most known place for tourists is sao paolo but its not as touristy as rio. other then these 2 places people in the world dont know much else of brazil, they think everything else is just jungle of amazon forrest. i know brazilian people are probably little bit frustrated because they have more beautiful places that they want to show to people but its just how things are in the world. i also live in a country that has only 2 famous places people visit when they in my country and other places which are in my opinion even more beautiful dont exist on their radar. its how people are, they heard or read about how cool some location is from other people and they go there just to say they been there too because its cool location. but safety is also important so these places with lots of tourism are safer then others because governments make sure to not lose tourism revenue from people flocking in to safe cool famous destinations.
Brazil is a huge country and most people have a very different lifestyle than Rio. Rio has more tourists and people want to be more interesting. Overall, the country is more conservative and more family-focused.
Rio de Janeiro is also conservative too.
Mulheres mais promiscuas são as daqui
@@ander6368 Mulheres mais promíscuas não são as do Brasil.
@@ander6368 Nem todas as mulheres brasileiras são promíscuas.
@@sabrynatenorioPerhaps there are a significant number of conservative people in the city of Rio, but that is not the reputation the city has simply because there are very large numbers of people in the city of Rio who are not conservative and those numbers are very evident to anyone who visits the city or spends any considerable amount of time in the city. No one is saying all Cariocas are one way or another but for any one to say that Rio is generally known as a conservative city overall would not be honest with themselves. Every city on Earth has a general reputation for a reason. Generalizations are not 100% true, but they arise from general impressions and experiences, so if nothing else, they can partially true, while leaving space for individual truths and lifestyles as well.
I've failed as a Brazilian. I'm an introvert who doesn't know how to dance nor playing soccer.
Same here 😅. I can't stand samba, hate the heat, Carnival and beer. I can also live without the beach.
Congrats on reproducing stereotypes!
@@louiseleite3866 The foreigners does not can imagine that the biggest part of brazil does not has beaches
@@luisamaria3068True.
hahahahah
Most of the comments were pretty lighthearted and fun/true, but I guess one of the finnish women does not realize how xenophobic her relative sounded while saying latinos can't be trusted. Even when you say it as a meme you should be extra careful, but I'm pretty sure that older generations trust that for a fact based on stereotypes and prejudice
Maybe she meant it as a joke due to certain old stereotypes of Latino people among the older generation of people.
@@jaskatpon1 it's racist anyway. Every latino knows how it feels to be treated in such a condescending way
@raphaelfp If I may ask, what was racist about her comment exactly? First, Latino is not a "race," it is more about culture and regional descent and a Latino can be of any "race." Also, xenophobia is a fear of foreigners. I didn’t get that vibe from her.
In the video, I believe she said her mother told her, "you can't trust Latinos" and that she herself finds that to be "sometimes" true, and she gave specific cultural examples in her experience where she lives as to why she made the comment.
And if we are being completely honest, I have personally known people from various Latin American countries who say the same thing about their own cultures, and whether true or false, it is something people occasionally experience everywhere. It is not uncommon to hear some people criticize elements of their own culture.
And she was specifically asked what she did not like about Brazil, she simply didn't sugar coat her answer. A person shouldn't ask that question if they don't want someone to tell the truth.
She didn't overgeneralize by saying ALL Latinos cannot be trusted, she said sometimes she finds it to be true based on her experiences of 18 years living in the city of Rio de Janeiro. She simply answered the question in an honest manner. But her response definitely could have been worded better, but I wouldn't chalk it up to racism per se, just a different cultural perspective on what is considered honest.
@@davidelliott1594 when you stick to a stereotype of a whole culture/race (and bear in mind that latinos can be found anywhere from Mexico until Chile) and uses this as a metric to define these people in a derogatory way, you're being racist. You say she's based on her almost 20 years here in Brazil. Well, I'm 41 and I'm brazilian. Been to more than 20 countries and even though I've been well treated in most of them, it's easy to notice when someone (especially from Europe) tend to see us as savages like it's just a "quirky trait". It's a stupid thing to assume about anyone else, doesn't matter if it's latinos, asians, black people or any other ethnicity. The ones who believe in concepts like that should be less self absorbed and get to know for a fact what goes on around the world. Watching Geography Now on youtube is a good start
I mean, I am latina... you can't trust latinos. You can leave a wallet or stuff in Germany without getting robbed. For us, that's a mind blowing concept. It's the truth and if you get offended, you are delusional.
The stereotype of Brazil in foreigners mind is the stereotype from Rio. Brazil has a continental dimension, more than 200 milion people of different origins. The rest of Brazil is quite different from Rio, the accents, people, customs, the way of life, many differences. If someone wants to know Brazil, it is necessary to visit different regions. If you think Brazil is Rio so you do not know Brazil. For example; São Paulo city is a metropolis, no beaches, not so hot and it rains a lot in the summer, people are always in a hurry and they are more serious. You can find people of other parts from Brazil and from other countries in São Paulo. If you go more to the south of the country things change, if you go to midwest is another thing, northwest another completely different...
Even Rio de Janeiro is stereotyped in this video.
Rio de Janeiro is stereotyped in the video too! Most of people from Rio is decent and work a lot to make a living. You should criticise the Finnish woman that made terrible comments about Brazilians. You, as a Brazilian, should support your people like they do in their countries. Stop criticising Rio de Janerio because the other regions are not that different. After all, we´re all Brazilian.
@@gisellemoura5753True.

Seems like that Finnish lady is simply unable to operate outside the strict enforcement of rules. I'd assume she's very machine-like for being unable to glimpse civilization outside the binder she's used to. Brazil has been through so many crises and the system failing so much that the people developed the ability to negotiate rules and have matters flowing on-the-go. So the Finnish lady is like a cog, whereas brazilians are rebuilding the system everyday, adapting to every new problem, and having an entire continental country running quite peacefully for the amount of issues going on. When a people builds their "civilization" everyday, with enormous flexibility and adaptability to unforeseen and foressen issues, instead of having "civilization" imposed in the form of rules for them to blindly follow, I dunno, it looks to me that the one who knows how to make civilization from scratch, accomodating an enormous range of issues and still keep stuff going, is more civilised, as opposed to a trained monkey. But alas, the blinder...
I am Brazilian and I work with Estonians. Basically, they want everything to be planned in advance and create a series of rules for all processes. This is good because it makes work organized and efficient. On the other hand, an excess of rules limits creativity and sometimes makes processes too slow. The Brazilian team knows how to deal much better with unforeseen events and can find a way out even in the most complicated situations and when there are not enough resources available. Rules are important but creativity and resilience are too.
Yeah yeah sure you are the best 🙄🙄🙄🤦♂️
@@Frivals why is it so difficult to see it's not a competition. I suppose the "civilised" can't think any other way. Just parrot as told...
@@GABIdotGABI exactly. Different people can always add to each other. We're all flawed some way or another, and the different other help us see ourselves better. But it's incredibly arrogant to look down on others simply because they don't play by your book. Referring to them as uncivilised, "jungle rule", of all things, an inferior race, that's the sort of thing nazis used to do.
@@CerridwenAwel that's the point!

Brazil is a huge country and the video shows Rio’s culture, which is the most open in the country.
This lady from Finland is a funny and clear character with various types of preconceptions involved in the dialogue, jungle role (??wtf)
How can she say that Finland is more nature than the intare Brazil that is the size of a continent?
That is just so funny
She is meaning that Finland has more of natural nature than brazil. Go to Finland and you will notice.
Giys!!! This is just Rio!! Brazil is verrry diverse
Rio just one of the most criminalized cities in the world where if you want to stay alive you need to walk in a group and not go beyond the tourist area. I will go there only when I get tired of living, just like in India

@@botlfpx😂😂
@@botlfpx I've heard many stupid hateful opinions about Rio before but your opinion is the most stupid of all. If you don't know something don't say anything. Stay with your hate where you are.
Just as California, Alabama, Texas, Colorado and New York are so different from each other, Brazil is very different from one state to another. You could say that the differences are as big as from one European country to another.
As a Carioca who left Rio 13 years ago, it shocks me that so many people tend to generalize based on the behaviors of those living in the (richer) south quarters of Rio and Barra da Tijuca. The suburbs of Brazil are extremely conservative compared to these areas full of tourists. It makes me feel the most non-typical Carioca ever.
We are a lot more "open" and outgoing, yes, definitely more musical, but never have I or any of my girlfriends or women working with me drunk alcohol so easily, used drugs (such a taboo topic for us) or had sex on first dates compared to the way I see the youth doing here in Europe. This sounds super awkward. We wear bikinis at the beach, but we're not willing to be naked everywhere the way I see here, where saunas and fitting rooms are mixed, people go topless every chance they get, gym showers are usually open and kids go to school wearing shorts so short you could almost see their brains. I think this open friendliness we have, which tends to be kind of superficial, is somewhat seen as "an invitation to sex", which for most part is not going to be. People might kiss you when having fun at parties, but most are not interested in sleeping with you. Trust me.
But I agree with everything said about corruption and our lack of seriousness concerning our environment. I believe that, because we have so many natural resources and such diversified biomes, people think they'll be there forever and they won't have to do anything to preserve them.
There are many serious brazilians also.
As a carioca who still live here, i agree with you in 100%. Especially in West Europe, the use of alcohol, sex and drugs (by far), are more comon than here in Brazil or Rio.
Onde que os subúrbios são conservadores? Carioca definitivamente não é conssevador em seu comportamento padrão, mas sim bastante liberal. O monstrinho funk, bailes funks e Carnaval são produtos do RJ, que tantos pessoas de classes mais altas quanto baixas incentivam e participam. Falo isso como morador de subúrbio no RJ
Negar a realidade é insanidade. BR no geral, principalmente na mídia e no que exportam de "cultura" para o exterior é bastante liberal. Por isso somos conhecidos por esse comportamento, não termos um comportamento socialmente conservador ou discreto (não que eu ligue)

The taller Finnish woman has a complete different understanding about happiness than us, but she's judgemental nonetheless. It's important to listen to different opinions, but when I heard her talking bs about her mom's "advice", putting Brazilians in the same "box" as "Latinos" (oh, I hate this pseudo-denomyn), I understood she just doesn't fit. She has two kids here, but she considers to be stuck? What a nonsense...
She´s arrogant and discriminating. I made a lot of comments about her here. I got absolutely shocked by the things she said about Brazilians. I got even more shocked when I read many Brazilians agree with her.
@@gisellemoura5753 True.

I also thought she was rude and disrespectful. She complains about everything in Rio and, even after 18 years, she still preserves the same stereotypes. It is sad that she keeps living in a place she hates... But it is her kinda her fault...
Brazil is a huge country. That is not "Brazil". That is Rio's culture.
moro nos Estados Unidos, quando me perguntam de onde sou, falo que sou de Goias. depois explico que cada estado do brasil tem sua cultura. nao quero que eles pensem que sou do Rio.
YAS! OMG, so stupid this Brazil = Rio...
Very true. As a Brazilian it also pisses me off how people are late to stuff. It's so disrespectful. Regarding the idea of not making real friends it's misunderstood. It's just that we are nice to people we don't know. It doesn't mean we are BFFs. We are just happy people who enjoy other people's companies and sharing experiences. That doesn't mean we developed some deep friendship. It simply means we are not a cold dismissive people. The true friendship will develop as time goes on and bonds strengthen. But we won't give you the cold treatment just because we just met. I think people are too used to that in Europe. Same thing with men who think Brazilian women fancy them when in reality we are just friendlier and more open. More open doesn't mean open legs. That being said, the region of Brazil also affects the experience. People in Rio are quite extreme when it comes to what is said in the video for sure. In fact, when people from Rio come to my state (Espírito Santo) they think we are cold and unfriendly.
It is not normal to be late in Brazil. It is wrong to be late in Brazil
We do not consider it disrespectful, so if you are in another culture it is up to you to adapt.
Eu acho o capixaba um povo muito simpático e legal
@NightOwl_30 I have to agree. Punctuality is about valuing other people’s time. To value other people’s time and schedule and the fact they have other things to do in their day is a universal sign of respect. If people agree to meet at a specific time, unless something unforeseen happens, that is the time they should meet, because one never knows what else that person needs to do in their day.
@@davidelliott1594 In Brazil, it's only nowadays that people are understanding the value of people's time.
TRUE STORY: my mom had an appointment for a surgery. The doctor (who barely smiled and acted very cold) told her to be at the hospital at 7:00 AM. The guy arrived at 7:30 AM. My mom even joked to break the ice: "hey doctor, you kinda missed the time didn't you!" He DID NOT apologize; he scolded her saying "EXCUSE ME! I am a human being! I needed to eat a proper breakfast before a hard day's work. So a few minutes late is not bad! BE CONSIDERATE!"
Brazil and other Latin Countries are much more extroverted , noisy and fun than other people from other countries , especially if you're Nordic , they are totally unlike
Not all Latino countries are extroverted. Bolivians, for example, tend to be a lot shier and suspiscious when interacting with strangers.
Stereotypes are tiring, even in a big country like Brazil. The behavior of people in a city like Rio will not represent an entire nation. But it's the bitching that sells, right?

Just great interviewing. So insightful, thought provoking and fascinating. Brilliant job!
I'm brazilian and if someone I barely know asks me to kiss me without knowing me I'll run away thinking that person is crazy,...
the problem is that tourists go to clubs and touristic places and they think the people they meet there represent an entire country of continental size like Brazil lol it is absurd and attracts any type of foreigner looking for sexual tourism.
There is a big difference between people who go to clubs, tourist places, with the intention of having fun with people there, having one night stands, etc., and the serious dating scene. I believe that in most of the world's big capitals what happens in clubs is very different from real day-to-day dating, and it's the same thing in Brazil, the tourists in the video make it seem like you can kiss any Brazilian on the street before even saying hi, which is not normal at all here, if you do that you will be arrested for harassment.

I liked the Portuguese in the video, they weren't prejudiced against Brazil.
I live in the south of Brazil and in general, being late for social commitments is considered not polite but when it comes to work it is totally unacceptable and not tolerated. If someone is late for a professional appointment, they may lose their job or business opportunities, it is considered serious character flaw.

Outside capitals, Countryside cities are peaceful and quiet, at 21 pm everyone is home doing their last meal and going to sleep, you won't hear a thing in the streets, you go walking to work with your wallet in your pocket and checking your cellphone...

@@daninogueira8154 Amigão, no Brasil chamamos de FACÇÃO, em inglês é CARTEL. "drug cartel" nome importado do espanhol mesmo. Se eu falasse "drug faction" isso não faz sentido algum pra um estrangeiro.
This doesn't represent the entire country, it's more about Rio style, go to Sao Paulo, northeast or south of the country and you will see that people are different in their own ways. btw the tall Finnish woman should find another place, not being mean, she really doesnt like Rio (I dont like either), but she saying that Finland has more nature than Brazil???? We have 5 biomes inside our country, Amazon Jungle is more than twice the size of her country, and yes its dangerous, bcs its a JUNGLE, whatever you find there wants to kill you even the fishes!!! the biggest world Swamplands (Pantanal), our own and unique Savannah (Sertao), I am really wondering what that cold flat land has to offer? Saunas in the woods? I've never met someone saying that they want to see the nature and fauna of Finland besides the northern lights and Santa Claus.
True. But it's worth remembering that not all Cariocas are the same.
Exactly. Don’t worry this is the European and Western who getting hurt. imagine saying nature in Finland is better than Brazil lol. They even contracted themselves even further by saying they are individualistic but then complain that the Brazilians wear too much revealing clothing.
Just like what happen to me in Qatar World Cup 2022, the European was shocked to see clean, organized and safe and professional people and police yet even with all that we kept our traditional clothing and ways and never forgot our roots unlike Europeans. It hurt their ego.
She probably means the acess to nature is easier (closer to big centers).
@@wildman958 Like, i lived in Spain and Italy, and women (especially from north europe) wear so reaveling clothes comparing to cities in brazil that are not near to beaches.
@@wildman958I think she was trying to say that Finland is more forested on a percentage level than Brazil. Brazil has the largest rainforest (the Amazon jungle) and largest wetland (the Pantanal) in the world, but it is not the most forested country per capita, nor actually the one with the most forested land. Those titles actually belong to neighboring Suriname, which is like 90.2% forest, and Russia, which has 12 million sq. km of forested land, mostly from the Siberian taiga forests. Finland also ranks 10 when it comes to the most forested countries, at 72%, while Brazil ranks 22, at 64%.
Also, she might have meant the better infrastructure in Finalnd makes access to nature a lot easier than in Brazil, hence, why it is less dangerous or more tourist friendly. Brazil has large concrete jungle cities like Sao Paolo, which Europe has no equivalent of, so one can really get lost in just pure concrete, before seeing a touch of nature (not so much for coastal cities like Rio de Janeiro though).
Also, I think when she said Brazil's nature is more dangerous, it could be because of the different types of biomes. Brazil has tropical rainforests, where animals like venomous snakes, spiders, frogs, predatory anacondas, jaguars, caimans, and parasitic and disease spreading creatures exist (warm, wet environments are the perfect nesting grounds for mosquitoes and parasitic amoeba).
Meanwhile, Finland has a very cold biome of mostly evergreen taiga foests, where bodies of water tend to come from melted glaciers, so the water are crystal clear cold, which prevents microbes from growing, hence it is safe to swim and drink them. You will still find some apex predators like bears, wolves, lynxes, and wolverines, though. Just not the venemous and parasiti creatures.
Careful to generalize Rio to all of Brazil, which is huge and diverse. For instance, people in São Paulo and in the South are more reserved, on one hand, and more punctual on the other.
Rio there are also many conservative people and there are many punctual people.
@@sabrynatenorio Yes, there are. But comparing to capitals like São Paulo or Curitiba (or the average Brazil), people from Rio are much more sexually liberal, and much more lax in following rules or being punctual.
@@PixelarterCariocas are not the most sexually liberal, no one in Brazil is.
@@PixelarterNot all Cariocas are late.
@@PixelarterApart from Carnival, which is shit, not all Rio women are sluts and not all Rio men are womanizers and not all Rio women are sluts.
You foreigners have to understand one thing, Brazil is huge, don't judge Brazil just by your experience living in Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo.
People love coming to Brazil, going to RJ or SP and thinking that the whole of Brazil is like that... But it's not! Not everyone lives in favelas, less than 5% of a population of 215 million people, not everyone likes Carnival, in the South they like the local culture of German descent and there are cities that have snow, in the Northeast they are also very faithful to the culture The Festas Juninas is the most famous of them, the North is where the densest part of the Amazon rainforest is located, there are several indigenous tribes but there are also large cities.
Don’t be limited to Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Travel around the country, get to know the regions, get to know the cultures, get to know different personalities and customs, learn that not every place in Brazil is dangerous, here in my city we don't even know what it's like to witness an exchange of gunfire or something like that, we only see it by TV.
Brazil is a continent....
as a brazilian man i have to say, we love kisses, men and woman, THATS WHY WE BRUSH OUR TEETH SO MUCH
A maioria dos brasileiros não conhecem o Rio, a maioria dos brasileiros tem medo de ir ao Rio de Janeiro, a violência afasta os turistas locais.
Fato
O problema do Brasil é o Rio ser o portão de entrada do Brasil. Para o bem e para o mal, definitivamente o Rio pode ser lindo, mas já deixou de representar o Brasil há muito tempo.
Temos centenas de praias espalhadas pelo Brasil que são tão boas quanto as do rio. Temos lugares melhores para as montanhas. Mais seguros...
Então porque ir correr riscos no Rio :)?

There is hundreds of beachs across Brazil that is so god as beachs in Rio, there is better places with better montains too. They are safer then Rio, so why go to Rio?

The tall finish woman is definetly unhappy here. Im surprised why she is here for 18 years.
Two ladies from the same country 🇫🇮 with such different perspectives about the same place….. it’s clear that the tall Finnish lady had her time and lives a bitter life now…. It will be like this wherever she goes 🙄
Sure! That Finish girl could go back to her country and never come back.
It's a pretty cool video! For me, as a curiosity Brazilian guy, it's always nice to see foreigners describing us. Especially those who know us so well.
The amazing video!!!
This finnish lady said so much lies. How is the beach polluited? According to the last report by the Rio de Janeiro enviroment institute ALL beaches in Rio are clean.
Sure 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Frivals It is according to INEA (State Enviroment Institute) In case you have mental capacity for that, you can look it up and see for yourself.
The tall lady from finland made some very negative comments, it sounds like she is dissapointed that Brazil is not Europe lol. She needs a map.
Finland and other countries are the main responsible for Brazil's environmental issues with their paper companies, etc (among other things). That was a naive or even a poor argument.
Explain how Finland has got a part in it. You have got a poor argument because you can’t even explain your point of view.
@@tr11_ There's a long time (15 years) I don't study forestal engineering stuff, then I can't remember those companies by name. I read many books, articles, with abuse from these foreign companies. Stora Enso is the only one that comes to mind (from Finland), but there are others. Companies from Canada, the USA, etc, they come to Brazil and rape the rivers, groundwater, the woods, the government allows them to do it. People die, the fauna dies, they compromise many levels of brazilian society and the oligarchies here get their portion of it.
Excellent video! I did not realize how many other foreigners that are living here permanently. I myself am from Canada originally. Very cool! 👍

*O país é enorme e cada estado tem sua cultura, muitos do vídeo muito provavelmente só conhecem o Rio (As regiões turísticas só ainda) e talvez São Paulo, então é uma visão sobre o Rio de Janeiro. É complicado ter uma visão de um país inteiro com base em só 1 Estado. 🇧🇷*
hopefully these prude gringos dont try to change the culture there because brazil seems to be a wonderful place. hopefully i will get to visit it sometime. i like the chill and relaxed way of life so i think i will skip the southern german/italian influenced cities and go straight to rio to enjoy the beach and the people vibes. very beautiful people in rio. everyone looks like a model
In the south there are also mixed-race descendants of Portuguese and indigenous people.
Most Brazilian women in Rio de Janeiro they are not easy either.
Nordic people are not prude, they basically to sex with strangers. How this can be prude ????
There are naughty foreigners too, of course speaking without generalizing.
@@luisamaria3068It is true that there are also depraved nordics, not all nordics are conservative and puritanical.

Such a nice video! It's interesting seeing our culture through others lenses/perspectives.
Temos muito a melhorar!!!
Nice video, but these people are talking essentialy about Rio. Those who are really interested about Brazil must know that this country has thousands of cities - many of them big cities - that are very, very different from Rio, also under a cultural perspective. Judging Brazil by Rio is the same that thinking that USA is San Francisco, for example.
There is a “Rio” in the title of the video. So it becomes clear that they are talking specifically about Rio.
But most of Rio's Brazilian characteristics are common in other regions of the country. Even if they are less strong in some of them.
Brazilians from any region cannot compare to Europeans or North Americans when it comes to commitment and seriousness.
@@marcosantos4395 These are not brazilian things. Here in Brazil there are also many conservative people.
@@marcosantos4395 There are many serious brazilians.
@@marcosantos4395 They mentioned Rio because the interviews were proceeded there. The text does not suggest the comparison you mentioned. Of course, there is no comparison. But, sorry, I don't agree with you. The differences are many.
as a brazilian, that finland woman really got into my nerves
Overall the lady from Finland is right about which country is better to live , aspects like goverment and security are really important
why is she 18 years in a place that she does not like ?
@@luisamaria3068 Saying that a place is better to live than other isn't wrong at all , and you probably know that
@@luisamaria3068 Because she is 18. All people like to explore before putting roots down. It broadens ones horizons and teaches what you value. Without contrash how would one know?
@@oliverfa08 yep but astill a valid question
@@luisamaria3068Because of the children
Therefore, the girl from Finland do not consider the country safe, She prefer nature and security in their country. and apparently her doesn't know the size of the Amazon or the Pantanal, to say such a thing. The question is, what the hell is she still doing here?
If in general everything is better in your country
Amazon and Pantanal that you can enjoy every weekend with infrastructure and everything else ? Really?! 😂😂😂
@@tomkrieger every weekend? Do you think the Amazon jungle and the pantanal are what? Resorts? 😂😂😂😂
@@tomkrieger who is going to the Amazon and pantanal every weekend??? Brazil is size of Europe. Most Brazilians have never visited the Amazon or the pantanal. Brazilians definitely don't think of them as a every weekend destination. They are not parks. Or a sauna in the woods.
@@julianasilva6946There are many Brazilians who enjoy the Pantanal and the Amazon and who think of them as a tourist destination.
@@julianasilva6946There are many who have already been to the Amazon and the Pantanal.
Wtf is the Finland woman doing in Brazil
Enjoying the weather.
Fantastic video
Awesome video
Who says Brazilians dont care about the physique???? Those colombians obviously don't know what Brazilians are like. THEY DO CARE about it and A LOT, you gotta be perfect. That's why Brazil is on the top list of countries with the highest number of plastic surgeries in THE WORLD. You gotta be FIT, if you are chubby or fat, of course they judge you
Brazil is such a big place with a lot of history to really pinpoint culture. I have lived here for 9 months in the south (SC) so I won't make a wide assumption but the European/Brazilian culture is amazing. I don't really run across people running late to often and everyone has a sense of respect and order for each other and makes everything run smoothly. I compare the south to what Canada and the US were 20 years ago. Everyone walks with a smile and is not scared to make eye contact and say Hi, super easy to meet friends, everyone likes to enjoy a day at the beach or partying and most importantly everyone unites and relates in some way.
South Brazil is a 10/10 (in the summer)
The racist South, wannabe-european, self centered state? Yeah, right.

If you think it is ok for people (even when married) to show their bodies the way they came out of their moms wombs to the public. No wonder adultery is a thing here in Brazil.
Have you heard about cheating culture in Japan? Do you know the "Frei Koeper Kultur"of Germany that people are nude in public and in any way this is sexual, @@GeoSocratic?
@@GeoSocraticAdultery is not common in Brazil and not all Brazilians show their bodies.
@@engenheirocansado Yeah, and i also heard their birth rates are plummetiing, people don't even want to marry as there's a trend in which men are always takiing the fall, being accused of beating their wives and ending up with nothing in their pockets, losing their chilldren whether to the state or their wives. But of course, nobody is marrying because is not the new fashion. Just believe the narrative.
To the Finnish girl, if she's so unhappy, why doesn't she simply leave and take her xenophobia along with her?
she said she had two kids didn't she.
Grow up, man.
Agreed
Eu achei muito engraçada a frustração dela 😂😂😂😂😂
She’s just comparing two countries. Why do you have to take it so seriously?
The Gringo with Cleveland shirt is the most sensacional
How much hypocrisy, It's much easy to see topples or nude beachs in Europe than in Brazil. Their dress code is not higher to ours.
everything that was said in the video only fits Rio de Janeiro city.
The only thing that can be confirmed in this video is a general dispute. It's just that every Brazilian is happy, welcoming and kind. It doesn't matter what region it is from. Now there are many things that cannot be said, because each city, state and region is different from each other. The way of acting and speaking and dressing even in relation to ethnicities. I think it would be a good topic for another video.
2:07 *_''Peach (tea) damn refreshing mind-blowing and whirl experience no worry about making change, free-tasting is mandatory''_*
The stereotypes here are crazy exaggerated. These foreigners being interviewed have a very biased mindset of the "Carioca" (people who were born and raised in Rio de Janeiro) lifestyle and manners. I'm a 44 Brazilian man, married to a 41yo Norwegian since 2010. She's been living here with me since 2011. Ask her if she even considers for a second, moving back to Norway...
I'm very sure the rest of the country would agree when I say that Rio de Janeiro is not Brazil. Rio de Janeiro is Rio de Janeiro.I lived 2 years in Oklahoma, USA and 4 in Norway. and during my stay in Norway, when people over there asked me things about Brazil, they had no clue of the size magnitude of the country when theirs (5.2 million), is barely the size of the south zone area of my city. People have the tendency to believe that the entire population in Brazil (212 million) has among them, the same habits, beliefs and origin or even looks and this is so far from the reality. There is no such thing as "all Brazilians do this or that/ Like this or that". Many here as myself, couldn't care less about soccer or despise samba for example. The most amusing thing was the Colombian girls speaking as if Colombia was prude as Iran.... The Finnish woman talking about how men don't open car doors for them over there... No wonder... Go live in Scandinavia (although as far as I know, Finland is Nordic but not Scandinavian like Norway, Sweden and Denmark) and find out how women there can be as (or more) masculine and entitled as their men.... Many of them have the sensuality of a Bulldozer, just like that skinny Finnish girl herself with that Johnny Bravo's jaw.
Most characteristics they are describing in this video regarding Brazilians is not tied to nationality per se but generation. Check how Millennials or Gen-Zs are behaving more and more the same way throughout the western hemisphere, regardless of the country they were born.
These people come to Brazil and generally do the things they would never do in their home countries like getting drunk AF or going to wild parties (being as judgmental as they can be) and then after waking up to sober up and go back to life, they regret every single bit of it. I've seen this before. I'd bet money that some of these girls, went to crazy wild carnival parties expecting to be approached by guys as if they were the Dukes of Whatever and as if them girls were the Baronesses of Windsor (have no clue if this actually exists) but I'm sure people will get the point. They speak as if the every day lifestyle in the Brazil is about parties and kisses and flirting and smile and sun... Jesus Christ... I'm amazed how we can run the 9th largest World's GDP only by love, dance, Samba, beaches and flirting all around... I've seen many foreigners here looking for the most dangerous and "exotic" types of adventures like visiting Favelas and then complaining about the risks. I mean, WTF....... I'm not saying that many of the things they said, doesn't happen here (or in any other country for the matter) but the image of Brazil has been so much painted this way that the whole world is driven by this somehow distorted view and if they (foreigners) come here expecting a fraction of all this portrayed by these "experts", they are going to have a rude awakening. Maybe... JUST MAYBE, except, if they go to.... Rio de Janeiro.
Just saying...

Sim, espero que ela volte e nunca mais retorne. She's racist and xenophobic.
vim comentar isso!!! que racista folgada, pqp
I' m brazilian. I live in another side of Rio and I have to say: it's a historic mistake to know the beaches os Ipenema, Arpoador, Copacabana....(the touristic beaches) and think "it's about brazilian culture and life styl". Brazil is not those places really. These places are such a hibrid brazilian culture. If someone would like to know about brazilian cultura, lifestyle etc... they should prevent these places and, go to diferent places far from them.
Foreigners still thinking nowadays that Rio de Janeiro is the entire Brazil 😑
And this is not gonna change for the next years, since our media keeps just showing RJ to the world.
States quite important to Brazilian history like Minas, Pernambuco and Bahia are completely shaded and this is so unfair.
@@renanalencar2369True.
@@renanalencar2369 True. But Bahia still get some recognition with Salvador, Afro-culture and carnival. Together with Rio, São Paulo and Manaus, it's among the most internationally known places in Brazil.
The other states and capitals are almost completely neglected though, and they have so much more to offer.
What a generalisation! Also, they emphasise some "sexual thing", as if every fashion trend they consider of much exposure was born here in Brasil and followed by most Brazilian people...
If you only spend time in Rio and São Paulo you May have a different experience from the rest of the country… Minas Gerais is the best!!!!
Yes! Minas is great

As a Brazilian guy, I can say if a man wants to split the bill in a date, it's not because he thinks the woman has money, it's actually a Brazilian women's fight for equality. This man will treat you better than the one who pays everything who will think "who pays the band chooses the music"
Yes but as a gringa, she is used to being treated as an ATM. It happens a lot.
It's funny that these foreigners who come to Brazil and some who have lived here for years talk about women or how we dress on the beaches, because I went away and I know that many are going topless or wearing those horrible bikinis. The men were pretty hypocritical too. Ultimately, generalizing is a big mistake.
Very funny, classic, everyone is in Rio de Janeiro, a tiny state and they think they are in Brazil with 220 million inhabitants!
I was impressed that she could find not one, but two finnish. Idk why but this is one of the last nationalities I would imagine meeting here haha
Yeah same.
From a Brazilian guy point of view, born and raised in São Paulo, i think they were all pretty honest. That thing about commitments and appointments, getting late it's a Brazilian thing, but more so in Rio. Sometimes i think I belong somewhere else cause that can be frustrating. I hate being late, i take relationships seriously, i can't stand when people don't answer a professional e-mail, or when they change their minds about meeting you and just don't let you know in advance. I'm Brazilian and I'm just as bothered by this as they are.
Not even the people of Rio are like that.
Também me sinto desconfortável com essas situações relatadas!
I am very disappointed with this video because it doesn't discuss the rich aspects of Brazil such as arts, culture, food, and more. Instead, it only focuses on clichés that I hear everywhere. I urge foreigners visiting Brazil to explore its diverse cultural elements and show genuine interest in the country's culture. Please refrain from perpetuating the same repetitive discourse; Brazil is more than just your preconceived notions. Appreciate the depth and uniqueness that the country has to offer.
ok caren
That won't get clicks and likes though.
The video is called "culture shocks", not "things i love about brazil". What did you expect to hear?
I think his/her comment is more related to summing up a huge country with 26 states and 200 million people in just 1 city. Most part of Northeastern culture (well known inside BR) is completely strange to foreigners and they keep summing up Brazil to Rio de Janeiro stereotypes.
Only my state, Minas Gerais, has 858 cities, more than 22 million inhabitants and is as big as Germany.
We understand that RJ is the most known place in Brazil, but sometimes it's boring for us. We want more Mineiro, Baiano, Gaúcho, Paranaense, Goiano, Potiguar or Capixaba things to be showed to foreigners.@@MayaR-jv3fu
