Rio anyone?

I am going to Rio and Paraty the weekend of Dec 1 and don't have a travel partner. Would love to meet other lone travelers to explore, have dinner and drinks, maybe go to a balada....after just people watching on the beach. If you like to talk, laugh, discover and meet people -- or know of any ways to meet Cariocas while in Rio -- please let me know! I speak pretty good Portuguese.

Well if you speak Portuguese then you'll find enagaging them in conversation works. Do you drink? Do you dance?

Check out with the hotel staff where the best bars around your area are. If they recommend taking a cab, make sure they call one up for you.

The cariocas are mostly open minded and friendly. Just strike up a conversation with someone at a bar or a balada. Groups of people are usually more receptive.

Good luck!
