Brazil isn't for amatuers

Brazilians love to say that Brazil is not for amateurs. And holy sh*t that is so true.

Brazilian travel is made for Brazilians, not foreigners. I've cried over buying a bus ticket, been pickpocketed, been scammed.

After 5 trips and basically spending half my 20s there, this is everything I wished I'd known before I went.

Don't waste time figuring it on your precious holiday that you paid good money for.
