I remember reading about this little tidbit:

Unfortunately, a couple of thieves in Brazil recently attacked a woman and cut off her waist length hair with a machete. When sold, this hair could fetch as much as $500. Apparently, this happens every so often in Brazil. So, if you’re traveling there make sure you hide your long hair.

I think I'll mark Brazil off my list of "Places I need to visit before I die"

I've been to Brazil 3 times. It's pretty nice if you go to the right places but it's really bad if you find the other areas.

ahahhaha true that!!!

The beauty of Brazil is you can go there with $20 in your pocket and be KING!

Oh the girls were something else.. I spent a lot of time on the beaches in Rio. :D

The closest I'm gonna get to rio is google earth!

You really should visit. I had a good time both times I went

Rsx

I don't follow

Do they hate americans there like everyone else?

Im planing a trip to Washington DC. I've never been there I want to also checkout NY and visit Yankee Stadium.. will see..

No, for the most part, when I've been there, they love us.

You have to keep in mind though. You go out to dinner and go to a really really nice restaurant. You get hte full treatment and then the bill comes and its chump change. You leave a tip of 20% and they damn near have a heart attack at how generous you are.

alright. I may add it to my to do list then :D

You will enjoy it I have been there twice, lots to do.
