I see Roosh didn't love it, while VP thinks it was great, so I'd love to get some more opinions. Anybody else been to Rio Carnaval, especially traveling solo? I'll be traveling back to Brazil soon anyway, but I'm wondering if Carnaval is something I'll always regret skipping out on, or if it's just an overrated event.
I had a fantastic time. I stayed in a hostel though so I made some friends really quick (I still stay in touch and see a couple of them once in a while). Sambadrome was epic, the blocos were fantastic, and the general mood of the city was amazing.
I actually only ended up sleeping at the hostel one night the whole week. Got laid a bunch of times and met a Brazilian girl that I ended up being in a 3 or 4 month relationship with and prolonged my stay in Rio for that time period.
Probably one of the best travel experiences I ever had.
