It is not so much looking for a serious relationship as much as it is experiencing life, especially black life, in another country. Afro-Brazilians are basically very friendly. It is more of having that experience of friendship and dating in another place with a different language and enjoying one's life. It is primarily a fantasy but sometimes a person needs a break from reality.

The subject is not about Brazilian women. Nor is it about your twisted affinity for a culture in which you do not live. If you love Brazilian culture and it's people, start a thread about it. Don't hijack someone's thread to go on your own personal, and totally unrelated point.
