Is it the sunny weather, the gorgeous people, the healthy lifestyle, the fierce clubs and parties, the bars, Carnival, the scenery, the beach, the baths?
We don't know, but the fact is that Rio has recently been selected the most popular gay destination in the world by a prestigious LGBT magazine. An estimated 1 out of every 4 foreign tourists coming to Rio are supposedly gay or lesbian.
As Brazilian courtesy demands, we would like to offer you a fresh-brewed cup of coffee before we begin our journey. Or an ice-cold açai berry juice, with bit of guarana for that extra energy boost.
