Some Brazilian Cultural Points to Consider
· Affection between men and women is often expressed; public kissing, hugging, and hand-holding can be seen. The common greeting is a kiss on both cheeks, to family or friends.
· Bargaining is to be expected. Don’t bargain if you’re not really interested. You can always get a lower price when you go to the local markets or some small shops for souvenirs.
· Clothing is conservative. You can wear any comfortable clothing. Please do avoid extremely tight shorts or very short skirts on your volunteer work and in public (official) buildings.
· Conversations - Brazilians love to talk. They like to be very friendly with people.
· Only drink bottled water, it can be bought very cheaply almost anywhere.
· If Brazilians are eating some snacks, they will almost always share some with you.
· Invitations often arrive at the last moment. Don’t be surprised or offended, it happens to everyone. If you’re busy, even a short appearance is enough.
· Rice and or beans is almost always included in meals.
· Time is very flexible. A person may show up at 3:30 for a 3 o’clock appointment. As a foreigner, though, you will be expected to be punctual.
