I just received an email today notifying me I am a potential Grand Prize winner of a trip for 2 to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in the Hello Brazil Sweepstakes. Air, 5 nights hotel and $3,000 spending money. I am so excited. This is my thrid trip won but first for an overseas location and first in about 10 years or so.
 
OMG! That is so fantastic. Congrats. I won a trip to Iceland last year and it was fantastic.
 
Parabens!!!

I lived in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Some tips, pleeeease take heed: If you go anywhere public, like walking around the streets, using the bus, going to the beach, etc.... don't bring valuables like a tablet. That's considered a luxury item and you don't want to make yourself a target. Feel free to use a camera to take pictures more than your phone. Keep your phone safe. Learn a little Portuguese to help yourself get by and DEFINITELY try the bacon popcorn!

P.S. More of my favorite Brazil foods that you should try: faijoada, coxinha, brigadeiro, and NEVER DRINK WATER FROM THE TAP THERE.

Have fun, be safe and parabens (congratulations)!!!
 
Congrats! My son spent his 10th grade year there as a Rotary youth exchanger and went back last summer for World Cup with his host family, he loves it there! One of my dream vacations!
