Here's another very important one:
DON'T say anything bad about Brazil when talking to a brazilian. You will probably see a lot of brazilians making fun of their own countrie, but it doesn't mean you can do it too. It's like making fun of your family.
Yes, this and also DON'T speak Spanish thinking it's Portuguese. These two are probably the most important things that the video hasn't covered.
Oh boy I do like making fun of my family then
yeah, I agree

Some advices who're coming to Brazil:
1- take the tripe of attention to everything you're carrying
2- every single thing is a motive to make a joke :)
3- do not speak Spanish, for the love of God do not speak Spanish
4- take a shower/bath once or twice per day

About the traffic lights. Here in Rio, after around 10 pm, you can run past the red light because it's actually dangerous to stop at it because of the violence. During the day it's usually respected, but after 10pm, we really don't stop at red lights. If you rented a car, you shouldn't either.

By the way, we have recent publishes about it on this year. You should really see it.

That is awesome to hear! Cool!

If you speak spanish like assuming we speak it, well, you're in trouble lol
If you speak spanish, just change "ll" to "ch", "ão" to "ón", "v" to "b", "eu" to "io" and you will understand most of portuguese.
@@gengis737 Não necessariamente. Não são todas as palavras que você pode usar essa regra, junto as conjugações do verbo tb
If they speak spanish, we'll get 90% of what they say. That's it. No tourist come to Brazil thinking it's a spanish speaking country. They'll obviously search a little about the country before making such a travel.
João Victor this is a video exactly showing how tourists assume we do understand spanish but you’re saying they don’t? Lol wtf

Actually, most of ours are caymans, not alligators.
This is not even considered a mistake since everyone accepts both words, but technically South America is full of caymans and North America is full of alligators.
I can confirm that 1) time is treated differently in Brazil and that 2) traffic lights are just decorations and that 3) speaking Portuguese will get you treated better.
My first time in Brazil, I showed up speaking fluent Portuguese. All the other gringos had their bags open for inspection. I spoke to the agent in Portuguese. Made a difference. I got passed through customs without inspection.
Good for you, man. My second time in Brazil was three months ago. Although I'm not fluent in Portuguese, I am fluent in Spanish, and those two languages sound similar. I still made the effort to learn Portuguese before I came to Brazil. It was a big help. I was even in one tour group where the tour guide and other members spoke only Portuguese. Strangely enough, I was still able to understand most of what he said, and meet the group back at the meeting point and the scheduled time, so we could all get back on the bus. As I was in Brazil during Copa America, there were fans and tourists from Spanish speaking countries. I spoke Portuguese and Spanish more than I did my native English during my trip.
@@ajvf97 My first time in Brazil, we stayed in a residencia. Long story short, I translated German from a drunk guest to the desk clerk who spoke only Portuguese. German was my second language. Portuguese was -- lessee -- my fifth (I do not admit that I speak French). I had just returned from a Brazilian lunch -- 2 carafes of pinga -- which made the translation more of a challenge.
I recall buying Saturday lunch for 8 with 2 rounds of drinks in the restaurant of a downtown hotel in Sampa for US$55. With generous tips. (Got big smiles and obrigado/obrigada from all the service staff.)
Historical digression: There was a Lusophone conference in Sampa (?) in 1911. I read a paper from that conference. The thesis was that before he finagled Isabella into hocking her jewels to finance his expedition, Christopher Columbus sailed with the Portuguese. The evidence was circumstantial, but it persuaded me. So Columbus was not sailing into the unknown. On his voyages with the Portuguese, he had sailed beyond the Azores to the Leeward Islands. He KNEW land was there.
Anyway, I found it an interesting bit of scholarship. Haven't seen anything like it in the English-speaking world.
That means you are a Brazilian at heart.
@@BlueCR055 Verdade. Meu corpo é alemão, minha cabeça é americana, mas minha alma é brasileira.
Stopping at a red light at night means exponentially increasing you chances of getting car jacked. Just the ugly truth here.
If you feel comfortable being in Brazil, you are a Brazilian born abroad and you will be regarded as one of us.
Muito bom ver a nossa ordem crescendo e não diminuindo.
I feel comfortable in Porto Alegre 😌
I love Brazil and the Brazilians and feel very comfortable when I'm there, despite the differences to my home country. The only thing I don't like is being called gringo! I just hate this word, because it's mostly used in a pejorative way. It's like "Gringo" = naive, dumb, easy to cheat, etc.
@@RioMuc I totally get you. I'm Brazilian and I don't usually use that word for foreigners but I just want to say that that's not always the case. It depends on how you use it, the tone, the context... It can even be used affectionately. But yeah, I've seen lots of people using it in a pejorative way as well, so that's why I don't use it. If you don't mind me asking, where are you from and which cities have you visited here? Cheers!

I absolutely love how passionate this man is about Brazil! It made my day.
Me and my boyfriend traveled from South to North of Brazil last summer! That was amazing!
:-) thx
Loved my time in Brasil. I was moslty in BH, but never noticed driving through red lights at night.
I'd say this thing with "driving through red lights" only happens in empty places without night life (usually after midnight), nor homes or any kind of store, like old downtowns. Maybe a dangerous neighboorhood/ghetto. For the truth's sake, I only saw this thing happening sometimes in São Paulo.
People usually respect the red light, however it's good to stay alert.
If you do that in BH you get ticketed by cameras.
You forget warning to not make topless that's not allowed in Brazil

Yes, don’t touch those exposed wires while under the shower spray. It was an electrifying experience when I did! If a Brazilian says they will meet you at a certain time, it means he will start getting ready at that time. First he will get something to eat, then take a shower then maybe a drink. Calma!
man! You are lucky for being alive! 😮
Yeah. Can be true. But don't generalize

But not every place has a ton of mosquitos.
What city or place would you say it's the best to visit in Brazil for the first time? one that would bring the total Brazilian experience on a short period of time (let's say 10 days)
triky5384 Brazil it’s a really huge country and it’s impossible to get the full Brazilian experience in only 10 days and it also depends what kind of tourism u wanna do and when u wanna go there. The northeast has really nice beaches and it’s really fun in December,January and February the southeast has the cities of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Belo Horizonte that are great, the north has the amazon rainforest and a very distinctive culture, the Central-West has the Pantanal and it’s great for ecotourism and there is also the capital Brasília the south is the coldest part of Brazil it has a lot of German influence and a very distinctive culture as well it’s not a very tropical place though. For ur first time here I would probably recommend u to go to the southeast and the northeast during the end of December and beginning of January the New Years in Brazil is really great and there is some really nice parties in isolated beaches all over the country but mainly in the northeast.
Let me make it simple...where's the best place to meet ladies?! And I don't speak Portuguese!!😱
@@triky5384 Balneário Camboriú, Salvador, São Paulo.
@@triky5384 Like someone else said, it's a huge country, mate. There's no such a thing as THE total Brazilian experience, there are many different Brazilian experiences. If you don't have much time, I would suggest going to one city in the Northeast, one in the Southeast and one in the South. If you really want to go see the Amazon, then pick a city in the North, like Manaus, and if you really want to see the Swamps, go to the State of Mato Grosso do Sul.
Tip: If you are in Minas Gerais and need to say a word that you doesn't know or have forgotten, say "trem" instead
Trem = train 🚂
Aside from your (always) spot-on tips, it’s so cool to see your genuine kindness towards our country. Wolters family will always be welcome in Brazil!!!

Mark, YOU are fantastic! Such energy and passion when you talk about Brazil are contagious and you make each Brazilian who watches you feel proud of our country. Because of you yesterday I went to Mercado Municipal in 25 de março region! Thank you for your channel.
A little recency bias when filming this, eh Mark? I love how much you love Brazil. 👍 Oh and that capoeira footage always brings a smile to my face. It's my all-time favorite Wolters World clip...well top three perhaps. 😉
My favourite food was in Bahia. I remember eating at a restaurant there and being given this small bowl of green picantè sauce with my food which was deliciously spicy. The waitress was shocked when we had finished our food and I had eaten all of this sauce. She said to us she didn't think I would eat it as I'm European and white and because it was so spicy. My wife speaks Portuguese had to explain to her that I'm British and used to spicy food.
This made me very proud of myself :)
Another tip for travelling in less touristy parts of Brazil is prepare to have to explain yourself if you're vegetarian (like myself). It's not so common there to not eat meat and many restaurants think that chicken is vegetarian friendly and don't think you're safe with a bean salad because it probably has bacon in it😃
It's because there are people here that call themselves vegeterians just because they don't eat meat.
Great vid, bro!
Thanks man, you can feel the love for Brazil in his words s2

The best tip I have for you is to please travel to as many states as possible and from each state if you can go to different cities do that as well, you will see each place has its own culture, way of talking, behavior, popular music, food EVERYTHING I say that as living in the South, Rio Grande do Sul and as an example, if you're in Porto Alegre and go to Gramado or Canela you will see a major difference, and they are so very close to one another... I see the differences here from city to city and hope I can travel to as many states and cities of Brazil as I can in my lifetime.. it's like every inch has it's own unique personality, so go to as many places as you can and you will always have new things to learn and see 💜
Thank you for your good mood talking about what not to do in Brazil! So fun!👍👍👍
lots of shots from my hometown, Ouro Preto ❤️
What does your family like to do most when they visit a country?

Vídeo mais sincero e verdadeiro sobre o Brasil da perspectiva de um estrangeiro que eu já vi.
Ótimo vídeo!! Dicas bem importantes!
So, you are in my country. Hurra.
I live in Macaé, north of Cabo Frio.
The capital of the oil. Beaches, mountains, lakes, natural parks, waterfalls, all kind of adventures.
I love you. Your videos até fantastic.
Bem vindo.

@@nancylabauve5429 wow. The hot spot of our state. Nice to know you. If you come to Macaé, please call me.
For those who are considering to make a trip to Brazil, the country is not just São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. In the south they have great places to visit. One of the best is the city of Gramado which is located in the state of Rio Grande Do Sul. The city is a must go!
Parabéns, vc conhece muitos locais e comidas do Brasil. Ótimo vídeo.
Dude, You love Brazil more than I do! A lot of passion in Your words! Must be because I'm stuck here for the last 35 years...
