[@Chuck8541]

I can't imagine a hotel down there with no A/C, omg! Of course - the applause was for your vlog! haha 👏👏👏 Be safe out there! :)

[@tinahuegel]

Right?? I wasn't even thinking about it when I booked the place xD Well I survived and it was a learning experience!! :)

[@luke83rj]

It depends on the time of the year. During summer it’s hard, indeed, but in other seasons it’s not necessary.

[@Chuck8541]

@@luke83rj I guess I just assumed it was a 'very' hot and muggy kind of weather place. Like Florida. Here, it's Christmas time, and I'm still in shorts. lol The summers can be brutal.

[@luke83rj]

@@Chuck8541 it’s extremely hot here from december until march, then it is mild and in the winter it can get a little bit cold like 15 celsius, but not that much.

[@Chuck8541]

@@luke83rj I hope to experience it myself in the next year or two! 🤞

Thanks for an interesting video in Brazil I love watching your travels around the world . before you get Germany , back to Tokyo?

[@tinahuegel]

Hello, Tina. Well, you found amazing places in the city which I live. Place to eat, library and etc. Congrats for that. Anyway, to be honesty, I must say Rio is not a city to spend one day only. Like a tourismologist, I thought it very strange. I have been reading about foreing people who usually to spend 10 days here. Some European tourists stay here for a whole month. Two months ago, an American couple asked me about awesome places to visit. I would love to tell them that "I have the 7 wonders of Rio to you", but it was impossible to do a list with 7 only. The nature is present in our daily lives all the time, lakes, sea, rain forests so I have to select, choose 12 wonders at least. They spent 2 weeks in Rio.

[@arunachalvlogger9043]

Is rio a safe place for tourist ?

[@tinahuegel]

If you're careful... as everywhere. Some areas are safer than others.

[@arunachalvlogger9043]

@@tinahuegel thanks a lot for the information

[@tinahuegel]

@@arunachalvlogger9043 I know it's not an elaborate answer. But apart from "you have to be careful" I'm not sure what to say :) I was most of my time in my hotel and working ...

[@fredericofurlan]

Leblon and Ipanema are 'tourist safe neighborhoods', Gávea, Copacabana, Botafogo and Jardim Botânico are considerably safe. In general, Rio is quite safe for a tourist if you move by taxi at night and, during the day, don't leave valuables on display when you're walking in the streets.

[@jesscasually]

Yessss the people of Rio applauding you! 🤣🥳

[@tinahuegel]

Ahahaha 😂 That was such an amazing timing 😂😂

[@Kovaction]

Not sure how we missed you but we're here now. New subs... Chuck and Lori... Your new travel vlog friends!

[@tinahuegel]

Hi 👋 Welcome 🤗✨

[@Dutra-le8rj]

Obrigado pela sua visita e mostrar o Brasil volte sempre

[@apiweb2007]

Tina, as a Brazilian, I'd like to apologize for your bad experiences. I love watching your travels around the world and often take note of the tips you share in your videos. In fact, I was able to enjoy some delightful cakes in Tokyo based on your recommendations. I was particularly excited to see what hidden gems you'd discover in Brazil, but I must admit, I was also apprehensive due to the country's safety issues. I'm delighted that you were able to find some nice places to visit. Thank you for all the work you put into showing us beautiful places around the world.

[@tinahuegel]

Thank you so much 💕🥹🥹 You're so kind! Glad my videos are helpful and gave you some good recommendations! ✨ I was a little exhausted in that week in Rio. But I had some days to recover since then. ☺️

[@PacoGerte-d3p]

Rio is extremely unsecure

[@mrssandycandy]

Immer wieder schön 😊

[@tinahuegel]

:D

[@francescosilverio7343]

Seja bem vinda ao brasil todos vcs 🌅🇧🇷

[@tinahuegel]

Thanks!! 😊

[@Annieguess]

Hi! Did you feel safe recording with your phone in public. Everyone say keep it in your pocket etc etc

[@tinahuegel]

I would be more careful in South America, yes. I felt safer in other countries than in Brazil, to be honest. But when I film, I'm very careful. I don't use my phone to film. I would keep it in your bag. I use my camera, but only when I know no one's arround or close by. I would be very careful in crowded areas or areas where you have lot's of tourists.

[@lewiswhite4085]

Wie ich sehe, bist du Deutscher, willkommen in Brasilien. Ich bin Deutsch-Brasilianer, Enkel von Deutschen, mein Großvater kämpfte im Zweiten Weltkrieg, er überfiel Frankreich, wanderte 1946 nach Brasilien aus, nachdem er von den Alliierten freigelassen wurde.

[@tinahuegel]

Hi :)

[@Cat1184]

Echt überrascht wie leer die Copacabana war. Ich hätte erwartet, dass der Strand deutlich voller ist, gerade jetzt im Sommer. Ansonsten sah Rio aber trotzdem ganz nett aus.

[@tinahuegel]

Ich war sehr frueh bei deim Strand. Eigentlich wollte ich sogar noch frueher hin um z.B. den Sonnenaufgang zu sehen, aber ich war diese letzten Tage zu muede :)

[@francescosilverio7343]

🌅🇧🇷🌅🇧🇷

[@robertoboehler-blumenau-sc8818]

As a brazilian, I have to emphasize that Rio doesn't mirror the rest of Brazil, at all. Visit the southern states, and I assure you'll have a much better experience compared to Rio. Some cities you should consider visiting: Balneariu Camburio, Canela, Florianopolis, Curitiba, Blumenau.

[@tinahuegel]

I know :) I don't generalize, just bc I made one bad experience and not all of Rio is bad. It's a great city!

[@jcabralart]

*_Tem sempre alguém dessas cidadezinhas barrentas e sem graça pescando turistas p esses lugares sem graça e sem programação, como gramado uma "cidade", três ruas apenas Fake e Canela q não é nada e querem dar uma de "europeus" e você vai lá e só vê caipiras cruzados com imigrantes q vieram da Europa p plantar batata. Ainda bem q não precisamos disso. Coitados_*
