I've been to Brazil close to a dozen times, both for business and for adventure travel (kitesurfing and paragliding). I love the country and the people and have a lot of friends there. I find most Americans overestimate how 'dangerous' Brazil seems to be, based on hearsay. In Brazil I rarely meet other Americans, but do meet lots of adventurous Europeans and others who also love this huge, beautiful, diverse—and of course also troubled—country. |

Similar experience traveling to Mexico, felt safer walking around Merida & Progresso (on the Yucatan) at night than I feel walking around lots of US cities during the day.
