I didn’t like it. I drank a four pack. They all tasted the same. They have never made one before they said. It sounded so good….

You really make it appear so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually one thing which I believe I’d by no means understand. It kind of feels too complex and extremely extensive for me. I am looking forward for your subsequent publish, I’ll attempt to get the hold of it!

Comment on How Much Does It Cost: Brazil by Cornelius

Brazil, in general is a very expensive place to visit. The Real is strong which makes the cost of many things comparable to the US. We were in Sao Paulo for Carnival, and shopped at a local grocery store away from the downtown area. In Rio we stayed in Flamengo and in Sao Paulo we were near the Metro exit for Santos Immigrantes, though it was a 20 min. walk to the metro. The main reason we could stay so long in Brazil was because of the fact that we often didn’t have to pay for housing and could cook at home. To get a realistic view of costs, using a hostel booking site you could average in the cost for housing. A Caiparinha could cost anywhere from R$5 to R$15, our cheapest was in Buzios but if you go to Lapa in Rio de Janeiro you could get one for about R$7. A beer would cost around R$8 at a bar for a liter, a chopp would cost between R$5-7. Dinner could range from R$10 for a cheap basic meal to go, on upwards to $R30 per person for nicer places.

If you have any more specific questions on costs feel free to respond here or email me at Cornelius@MonkeyBrewster.com, Aiko and I have our budget book which breaks down what we spent each day on items and we can give you a more exact figure. My hopes with this budget is to give you all an idea on general costs of traveling. I will be posting more soon for other countries we’ve visited.
