By the way, I agree with Diogo on his views towards Curitiba. Never seen it being mentioned much around here.

Florianópolis is the right pick for you, but bear in mind things are very hard there without a car. For that matter you could do better staying in 'Balneário Camboriú' which is a small coast town not far from Florianópolis which is crowded with asses during our summer [your winter] and easier to move around.

Both of them are not really low cost, but right now you wouldn't find any spot like that in Brazil worth the visit anyway.

Hi, Bro, as you lived here it is easier to answer you comparing the cities. Goiânia is much like BH and Natal is much like João Pessoa. In both cases there's a substantial upgrade in quality regarding the girls, so you're gonna be fine. Even the cities themselves are cleaner and safer, but probably with less access to services [restaurants, variety of night options, malls, etc] if you're to stay for long. Natal will also have you rent a car cos things [including beaches] are always far from where you are and you don't want to spend that much on cabs, but pay it, cos it's certainly worthwhile.

Anyway, it'll be nothing new to you, while Porto Alegre will be a totally different experience, almost knowing another country, and the girls are the prettiest in any state capital in Brazil, for sure [I think no one in the forum would deny it]. It would mean climbing yet another level in quality compared to Goiânia [quantity may decrease a little].

Of course it's no wonderland, so maybe it'll take a harder game to catch those hotties; you'll have to learn new rules. But on the bright side there's plenty of English speakers, it's easy to interact with the guys and surely low levels of cockblock .

As for my pick, I don't wanna confuse you but definetely among capitals it would be Curitiba. It's known in the country as the coldest reception foreigners receive [which is true], but it's got the best combo for a single middle class guy. The quality of life is great, prices are average, you can do all your shit in the central area with no need for a car, including shopping, going out at night, etc [unique in Brazil], and unlike most of the big ones like Rio, SP, BH, Brasilia, the hot girls are not limitted to the high-end or alternative-hipster market.

Now, things would certainly look different for a gringo who can not hunt speaking Portuguese, but even considering this handicap it's my bet for the best results in banging good quality.

I'd also add that I found this thread by MrGM great for a common sense view; it holds together many conflicting opinions without saying anything absurd.

Hope it helps

Thanks for the advice Diogo. When i first went to Brazil, I strongly considered staying in Curitiba and Goainia but changed my mind for several reasons that have to do with my physical appearance. I'm an American of Latino descent(have similar skin tone as Roosh and blend in pretty easily in most parts of Brazil except the south). As Mr. Gm has stated and my experience has verified, the blonde "european" man is the female ideal throughout Brazil.
While doing some pre-travel research, I got the impression that in certain cities this blond "ideal' is more prevalent. When I carpet bombed girls online before my 1st trip to Brazil, I got lukewarm reaction from girls in Curituba and Goiania. The best responses I got were from girls in Recife, Brasilia and Joao Pessoa (I made sure to only contact quality girls in every city). Furthermore, after reading Roosh's Brazilian travel guide, he made it quite clear that going south of Rio was not such a good idea in terms of pickup(especially if you have darker features). Thus, I decides to pass on Curitiba, Goiania and Porto Alegre and headed for "easier" hunting grounds. I believe I made the right decision since I'm always thinking of going back to Brazil.
NOTE:Now that my portuguese is fluent, I have the urge to give these "harder" cities a try next year. I hope they dont dissapoint.

They won't. Well, if you have time I suppose it won't hurt to do some field work and you can make your own mind. I haven't read the guide, but this is a fair generalization, specially for a foreingner. I bet you'll catch more than you think hehe. Anyway, one thing anybody here can tell you is that Goiânia and BH are very similar; they may have different quantity/quality but the scenario is the same, including girl's preferences. Good luck!

Diogo,
Welcome to the forums. Always good to see Brasilians join here.
Brasil used to by my favorite playground in the world but then I went to Asia and everything changed. But I do terribly miss Brasil and can't wait to return there. It's an amazing place!
BH, Goiania and Joao Pessoa are places I have heard a lot of positive things about from both foreigners who went/live there and from Brasilians.
