Brazilians are often perceived as friendly people, so when foreigners come to Brazil, they have a huge cultural shock when they get hugged and kissed, so this is a small list of things you should know before coming to Brazil. You need to prepare yourself for the so called ''air kisses'', it's basically when you only touch your cheek with the other person's cheek, not an actual ''cheek kiss'', these are very common in Brazil, as well as hugs. You also need to prepare yourself to always be late, yes, when brazilians are invaded to a party and the host asks them to get there at 17:00 for example, they'll get there at 18:00, so always be at least 30min late for informal events, when going to a formal event (doctors appointment, business meeting...) always be on point. You might as well receive some rough comments from people, but don't take it as a bad thing, brazilians are some times very honest and straightforward about their opinions. These are some tips on how to have a good time in Brazil!
