All bullshit hype. Women are women...anywhere in the world...some are hot most are fat ugly slags.
Brazil has hot women, however, most are fat ugly slags.
I have been to that shithole Rio. 99% of the population don't even go near the beach. They live in slums making $5 dollars a day working in a sweat shop.
As it is with most countries, if you have the dollars you can have the life. Rio/Brazil is no different!
