Hi there, and welcome to Travel With Luiz! 🌴

I'm Luiz, a proud Brazilian with a huge passion for exploring, connecting, and sharing the absolute best of my country.

If you're dreaming of visiting Brazil but want to skip the overpriced, luxury tourist traps to experience the culture like a true local, you are exactly where you need to be. I created this space for everyday travelers—people who want authentic, accessible, and unforgettable adventures without needing a premium budget.

Why I started this journey:

This blog is a beautifully fun two-way street. I originally launched this project as a personal challenge: a way to practice and perfect my English while building a little side hustle to fund my own future travels around the globe. By sharing my insider knowledge of Brazil with you, I get to connect with amazing people from all over the world, improve my language skills, and keep my own wanderlust alive!

What you’ll find here

When you explore this blog, you won't find out-of-touch luxury reviews. Instead, I focus on:

• Real-World Itineraries: Down-to-earth guides focused on genuine, affordable experiences.

• Local Secrets: The best spots to eat, relax, and explore that usually fly under the radar of standard guidebooks.

• Practical Tips: Everything you need to know to navigate Brazil safely, confidently, and comfortably.
  

I am so happy you found your way here. Grab a caipirinha (or an ice-cold guaraná!), make yourself at home, and let’s start planning your Brazilian adventure!
