Living in Brazil - Apartment Tour: -Get t-shirts and caps: -Banana Chips are available now: Thank you to Novotel Botafogo for sponsoring my stay: I thought it was a great business or travel hotel (affordable, about $75 - $150 per night, and especially it-s located in a great location in Rio de Janeiro. Grave Cafe - A bit of an interesting cafe in Rio de Janeiro, more of an art space and underground music venue. Not fully my style, but coffee was very good. Double espresso - 9 BRL ($2. 40) Galeto Sat's - This was the highlight for me. I didn-t know if I was going to have time to eat here during my trip to Rio de Janeiro, but on my final day, we did, and I-m glad. The chicken hearts and garlic bread were the best I-ve ever had anywhere. And the spring chicken with the sauce was outstanding. Total price - 108 BRL ($28. 79) Restaurante Cervantes - Sandwiches were ok, the beef was the best, so juicy. Total price - 78 BRL ($20. 80) And that completes this small travel tour and hotel review tour in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

Clarifying to Mark and everybody else, the meaning of the word GRAVE.
In english, the word GRAVE has two meanings, one coming from proto-germanic and another from latin.
Grave from proto-germanic and old english: tomb, burial place
Grave from Latin: after gravis (weight, gravitas (weight, seriousness)
The latin root is the origin of the word gravity for example. As well as the meaning -this is a grave situation- (this is a serious situation)-.
There is also the word ENGRAVING and verb -TO ENGRAVE- in english. Which usually means to mark something by carving or applying pressure/weight. Again, same latin etimology.
-ps, Doc Brown in Back to the Future should know some etimology. he would realize that using the word -heavy- for a serious situation is OLD. the romans already did it, as the word gravitas shows. It's related to -heavy burden-. So if you know some etimology, it's a roll eyes situation when Doc Brown asks if there is some problem with GRAVITY in the future (as Fox keeps saying -this is heavy-. I mean. when Doc asks about some problem with the word GRAVITY, he is using a word that comes from a latin word (Gravitas) which meant both WEIGHT and SERIOUSNESS. furthermore. the word gravity ITSELF is used in english to denote something SERIOUS. Like -The gravity of the situation! -
Now for portuguese. GRAVE can be the imperative conjugation of the verb GRAVAR (to engrave) (the imperative conjugation is used when telling someone to do something. Like. -Grave isso! - would mean -Record this! -. (the word grave is related to the english TO ENGRAVE, but is usually used meaning -To Record-.
Grave in portuguese, like in french and probably other romance languages, also has the more direct latin roots meaning. weight, seriousness.
And with that meaning, it's used in SOUND/MUSIC to denote low sound frequencies.

These videos make me smile. In my top ten favs!
A smile is good
The one place I wanna visit and I can't work
My dad screams at me that I'm useless and its pointless to learn a new language
And, knowing I want to go to Brazil, says I'm too useless to make enough to go there.
And much more. This is my life!

Again. so many memories rushing back. saw the Brahma Chopps sign. very first beer I tasted. still have my passport. can go back down there. but too busy here in Florida. but you have to, when you get a chance, Porto Alegre. infusion of Portuguese, Italian and German cuisine. remember that area very well.

As a Brazilian, I believe -Grave- in this context means -Record-, as in to record music per Guilherme's explanation. I believe his English is a bit limited, so he wasn't unable to communicate that to Mark. -Grave- comes from -Gravar- the verb that means -to record-. Anyway, love the videos!

It's so sad that Rio is the only place in Brazil that the internacional media shows, so foreigners only go there and Rio is one of the worst cities in Brazil, there are way better places and safer places here to go, but most of the foreigners don't know about that

My city! I like to have lunch at the top floor of Botafogo Shopping Mall (close to your hotel) just to look at Sugar Loaf. I've been to Botafogo today. It's an area also famous for various ophthalmologist clinics and glasses stores.

Would love to go there once but 2 of my friends individually got robbed there. After that we heard a lot of people are just being killed over nothing, even for a 100 bucks watch. So I will pass until I have a geniune guide there.

Your videos are just wonderful! Thanks for showing my city in a good way. Sometimes is hard to us, cariocas, to see the beatiful side of Rio. Our city has a lot of problems, but for sure is the wonderful city.

Hotel is great, but for a traveller not affordable. 75$ is much too much. usually I stay 3 months in Brazil and search for 20 $ hotels. But thanks, if I got the money, I will try it, next time when I'm in Rio.
