Travelling around the world without slip-ups: in this article, we show you twelve examples of do's and don'ts in Brazil to avoid missteps in the land of the samba.
1
All-day dining
You'll find non-stop service in many restaurants.
2
Ola tudo bem?
Say: 'Ola tudo bem?' (Hi, how's it going ?), wherever you enter.
3
Avoid traps in bars

Behind the wheel
Running a red light at night is tolerated!

There are only solutions
Dar um jeito = find a solution (Brazilians always have one).

On the beach
Don't go topless, but flip-flops are definitely allowed.
7
At a Restaurant
Tips are already included, but still welcome.

How to tan?
Don't lie down on the beach. Here, the locals tan sitting or standing!
9
Speak with your hands
Use your hands when you talk. Or just your thumb.

Surfing is King
Tonga or boardshorts, if you're not wearing surf shorts or trunks you're a gringo.

One dish is often enough for two.
