I am British and have been going to Rio at least twice a year for about 25 years because I absolutely adore the city: its beauty, its passion and its people. Unfortunately there isn’t any future for Brazil. Recent national surveys showed that almost 70% percent of the younger generation can’t distinguish between fact and opinion.

We turn tv on and every day there are local news on brazilians killing each other for nothing, being aggressive, not polite and so on.īesides that, don’t worry about other brazilian replies who criticize you because more than half of brazilian population has functional illiteracy. Many of us who realize we need to leave this country for better opportunities and to grow as a person feel very uncomfortable about the brazilian stereotype other brazilians show to the world. That’s a city where people behave basically by instincts and react very emotionally about everything they disagree. I lived in Rio de Janeiro for a few years and it was a frustrating experience too. I’m brazilian and found your post on google by chance while searching for other perspectives on this theme. Brazil was the one place where I felt that I could be mugged in broad daylight and where locals and authorities wouldn’t even budge to help you. I can count on one hand the number of people who would respond with a smile or who weren’t brusque in their manner. I would ask someone a question and they would respond but would do it addressing Lissette (maybe because she’s brown?). But when I, as an individual, have some Brazilian woman intentionally hitting me with her luggage cart (twice) at the airport, I start taking it personally. I know Brazilians are upset about the Visa fees imposed on any Brazilian citizen wanting to visit the USA.We can all look at other countries and disagree with their policies or politics. My best theory is that it’s political, specifically anti-American sentiment due in part to the whole Visa situation. Is it because Lissette and I are a mixed raced couple? (I don’t think so because Brazilians are pretty mixed anyway). Is it because I’m Caucasian, and that they confuse me as being an American? (I’m Canadian).

I’ve thought about it a lot, wondering what it could have been.
