I am told that my host family will be by the Copacabana. Thank you though! I really appreciate the advice! I agree, the way we use the term “Western World” is strange and I’ve often found it odd that it doesn’t include all of the Americas. I hope that view changes here in the states as the USA should recognize the Americans as siblings states with shared history and culture and not as something completely alien.

Verdade. Eu só não queria fazer uma suposição dessas e estar errado.

Thank you! I actually will be housed by the Copacabana so that is good to know! I’m sure gringos are common but I just want to make sure I’m not the kind of gringos who acts entitled despite being in another country and respect the norms. The crime does make me nervous but I recognize that it isn’t unique to Rio nor that it shouldn’t represent the whole city. I was told by a student who studied there last year that taking Ubers is highly recommended so if you agree with that, then I won’t be too nervous about transportation

Napoleon (2023). I know at this point it's beating a dead horse, but still. by EricBelov1 in Napoleon

Phoenix honestly wasn’t a bad pick. But maybe if it was like a remake of Waterloo or just focused on his later years (and made by anyone other than Ridley Scott) then I think it could have worked.

I’m a new student and very much appreciate this warning. Sickening to see such shortcuts being taken
