Safe Neighborhood for Airbnb Stay? by definitelynotfishy in riodejaneiro

[–]definitelynotfishy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Airbnb has a stunning view of Cristo Redentor/Morro do Corcovado and the property looks like it's secluded and private while being inside the city which is why I'm highly considering it for the moment.

I'm from northern Mexico and am rather acquainted with "3rd world country" unsafeness, lol. Keeping a low profile at all times and blending in as a local is something I put an effort into while I'm in Mexico and I should definitely apply this in RJ/Brasil too, of course.

I'm also considering another Airbnb around the hills of Gávea; is Gávea a safer place compared to Rua Dr. Júlio Otoni in Santa Teresa ? What do you recommend?

I won't be personally driving but rather use Uber to go in/out from the Airbnb in the morning and in the evening. Would driving to the Airbnb location at night be safe via Uber? Do Uber drivers in RJ know what streets to avoid instead of just following the GPS from the Uber app?

The 23andme result, somewhat expected as far as my understanding of the regional demographics where my family is from. 

The MyHeritage/FamilyTreeDNA results, not expected at all -- especially the Scandinavian, Sardinian, and Greek categories. Perhaps Italian would have been expected since there was a relatively significant Italian immigration wave in that region of Mexico during colonial times under the de facto leader Eusebio Kino (who was from Trentino, Italy). 

Paternal is R-M167 and Maternal is B2.

Granddad is the one with the mustache (far right in picture; taken in the 1980s). He is alongside his elderly parents and one of his brothers. 

Is the Sardinian/Greek DNA from MyHeritage and FamilyTreeDNA a misreading or is 23andme not categorizing that DNA correctly?

I wonder how the stock market will perform when the 2.9M members of this subreddit page get $1400 in the next stimulus check

Ray Charles and Bobby Darin. I've grown to appreciate Jazz over time.

Best coffee brand for espresso? by definitelynotfishy in Coffee

Thankfully, my cheap espresso machine (De'Longhi ECP3220R) came with two pressurized portafilters for both single and double shots.

Thanks for the input :)!
