Petropolis was the summer retreat for the Royal family back in the imperial era. It's a very charming town with German history as well. ❤ The royal palace became a museum and the German architecture is noticeable in many places throughout the city ❤

CURT and SNOW. Congratulations!!! Sou um brasileiro de São Paulo, apaixonado pelo meu BRASIL. E mais emocionado fico ainda quando verifico o interesse e até mesmo amor e carinho que estrangeiros demonstram por meu querido país. Tenho acompanhado todos seus vídeos e confesso que fiquei emocionado pelas experiências vividas por voces e seus queridos gatinhos. Temos 4 gatos em casa. Parabenizo o trabalho e todos os esforços de voces nessas viagens exaustivas e dispendiosas! É fantástico!! Sinto-me honrado com suas belas impressões à respeito de nosso Brasil, de nosso povo amável, de nossas belezas, de nossas liberdades e tudo o mais. É dignificante por parte de voces, socialmente e psicològicamente o fato de terem ido visitar a "ROCINHA"! BELÍSSIMO GESTO!! Mas, sinceramente, pudesse vir a ser muito risco!! Pudessem ter feito demonstrações à distância, eventualmente não correndo maiores riscos, não que algo fosse impetrado contra voces, mas tiroteios, por um acaso, acontecessem entre facções e voces corressem riscos!!! Voces poderiam até correr riscos de morte, encerrando-se toda uma programação internacional de viagens de um casal estrangeiro!! A atitude de voces é altamente dignificante pelo que sentimo-nos bastante honrados. Muito obrigado mesmo. Caso algum dia voces decidam vir a morar no Brasil, como SNOW deixou transparecer no episódio de Paratí, digo-lhes que serão muito benvindos, como também outros tantos estrangeiros que por aqui estão e amam este país maravilhoso. Temos vários problemas, é verdade, porém as vantagens são muitíssimo maiores as quais justificam demais afirmar que este, realmente, é O MELHOR país do mundo para se viver! Sol o ano inteiro, paisagens lindíssimas, florestas maravilhosas, variedade enorme de pássaros multicoloridos, água em abundância, comida farta, deliciosa e variadíssima, povo alegre e receptivo, muito a conhecer em um vasto território, não temos guerras, NÃO temos vulcões, furacões violentos, terremotos, tsunamis, tornados, nevascas devastadoras e paralizantes. Há ocorrências transtornantes mas, perto das vantagens existentes, a diferença torna-se enorme. Por exemplo, neve no hemisfério norte é sinônimo de desastres e aborrecimentos. No Brasil, no sul do país, é sinônimo de festas, alegrias, hotéis lotados, sinônimo de turismo!! Parabéns e ótimas viagens. Abraços brasileiros!

What a marvelous, honorable tour you took us on. I could tell by the end you were pretty tired out and just thank you for giving of yourselves to bring us history and present day living in the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. Life is lived so many great ways! Btw, Snow, you danced great. Really swinging those hips after much walking uphill!! Fabulous video. Can’t wait for tomorrow’s hike!

I only went into Rocinha once, sixty years ago. I was six. So, although it was no surprise, thank you for updating the image I had in my mind. However, Rio is multicultural and has different realities. The favela is real, ok. But we also have the traditional suburbs of Zona Norte, the affluent Zona Sul, the ever-growing Barra da Tijuca, and the somehow distant Baixada, all different cultures and realities. I wish Curt success when climbing the Pedra da Gávea. It must be quite a strenuous hike. (There is another huge monolith facing Pedra da Gávea. It is the Pedra Bonita, where the gliders take off from. The hike to the top is much easier, and you have a beautiful view of Pedra da Gávea). I look forward to following this new adventure and hope the weather is good up there.

That was wonderful. I agree it is important to dispel the myths of places. When in Beijing we stayed in a Huton area and the people were so kind and generous. I learned so much! And frankly, I didn’t want to leave. We avoided the tourist places (called Western, referring to America). and it was the best. We walked at least 17kms a day. I would go back in a heartbeat.

We all have more in common than we have differences. Just like there are places in the USA I wouldn't venture for safety sake, it is same in any country. Just always be respectful and listen to the advice of the locals on the places to avoid but also the best places to go and when to go there. Love you guys!

This was not a tourist attraction for us. We truly enjoy sharing with the world how other people live and survive. We also show the hidden gems and unknown beautiful places of the countries we visit.... we never want to offend anyone, but favelas are part of Brazil...

Não tem jeito! Pessoal de fora adora ficar visitando favela. Vira e mexe eu vejo jipes e mais jipes levando hordas de estrangeiros nesses lugares. É tipo uma experiência antropológica pra eles. Nos países do primeiro mundo quase não há lugares pobres e, tirando raríssimas exceções, nada se compara com essas favelas horrorosas. De uma certa forma, eu consigo entender um pouco a motivação deles invertendo as situações, me imaginando visitando lugares decaídos ou decadentes como Chernobyl, ruínas de castelos medievais e cidades abandonadas do midwest americano. Mas ainda assim, nada é tão degradante do ponto de vista humano como essas pobres pessoas morando empilhadas, no meio de tanta sujeira e violência dessas favelas. Não é uma opção estilística morar nesses atoleiros, é uma decisão dificil com forte caráter pragmático. É uma visita que me faria muito mal.

Well, from what I know, in the USA, anyone can have a gun and that's why so many people go into schools, cinemas, churches, etc. and go around killing everyone. The evil of North Americans is thinking that their country is the best in the world. It's not knowing anything about other cultures. You are intellectually alienated.

Wanda ... I was worn out by the end of the day, but to say it was worth it would be an understatement!!

I'm super excited for this video!

The music you chose in this video during the favela/slum motorbike ride is incredible. Cool one.

When I heard the song.... I knew it was perfect for the people that live there! Choosing our music is one of our favorite parts of editing, so thank you for noticing the lyrics!!

I am really enjoying your vlogs! You visit such incredible places! 💖

Our pleasure!

I really appreciate this video (and all the others). This one is so beautiful and interesting! I love hearing your respectful and kind words about all the places you visit. I was born in Brazil, close to Bonito where you have been. I’ve never been to a favela and it is so interesting. Beyond poverty or money, where there are people there are hearts. It’s so beautiful to see the interaction, the guys dancing capoeira and showing kindness and love towards you. I live in Switzerland and I’m waiting for you here! 😊 It’s almost time for shipping the van, right? Or is it already travelling? 😊

I live in Bern. There are so many beautiful places nearby and a lot of hiking waiting for Curt 😊 I will send you my contact in your mail, I saw it in a video from Chile I think. I know you have many plans in advance but I would be glad to show you some places here. 😊

Favelas are definitely not cool, but I understand foreigners curiosity. Thats not for me!

Rocinha is pronounced - Ho - Seen - Ya. Coxinha is pronounced Co-sheen-ya. Interesting video! I lived in front of Rocinha in the Hotel Nacional my first 6 months in Rio. Interesting video!

@@SnowAndCurt You two are doing well, all this "NHA"/"NHO"/"NHE" you found in some words are pronounced with this "N.YA"/"N.YO"/"N.YE" sound. I think that this rule is one of your lastest pronunciation steps to beeing more confortable with the language.
