It started with one trip and turned into a permanent address. We're a small team of friends — half foreign, half Brazilian — who got obsessed with this country and decided to share what we keep finding.
Gringos Brasil is independent. We don't take commissions on bookings and the places we recommend are places we'd send our own families. When we love something, we say so. When something isn't worth the trip, we say that too.
We visit every place we write about. We pay for our own meals. We tell you the line at Joatinga sunset because we waited in it.
Family pousadas over big resorts, neighborhood restaurants over tourist menus, guides who grew up on the trail.
Brazil is fragile in some of the most beautiful corners. We promote travel that leaves room for the next visitor.
"We're not selling Brazil. We're in love with it — and we'd like you to be too."
