The beauty of tourism and how to protect yourself during the World Cup in Brazil

The media paints a picture that Brazil is just violence, corruption, carnival, the Amazon Rainforest, sex and football. But Brazil is more than this; its modern cities, beaches, animals, the natural beauty of the mountains, valleys and rivers and the dark-skinned women with samba in the feet enchant the world. This piece of our planet is presented to the world by an Englishman, solitary, observant, possessor of profound knowledge who has lived in Brazil for more than 25 years. This book is intended to show tourists how wonderful the country is even though it does have problems. With the premise that we can protect ourselves with the correct knowledge, the author lists the most common difficulties tourists have when traveling to foreign countries and what measures can be taken for them to protect themselves. The book deals with crime and conmen but with possible health issues. Tourists often pay too much for a can of coke, but this happens in most non-English speaking tourist destinations and should be waived off as 'helping the local economy'.
