January 2021 Trip to Rio de Janeiro with Payment only in Bitcoin. Learn some Portuguese, Try the Food, Make Some Friends

Hi all. Apologies as this is not strictly about Bitcoin itself. As BTC enthusiasts, we're trying to accelerate the shift from fiat to BTC by offering a high-end service with BTC as the only payment method accepted.

I (American) have a good friend who is Brazilian and lives in Rio De Janeiro. He teaches Portuguese to foreigners and has also been working in tourism for the past ten years.

We're putting together an (almost) all-inclusive experience for first-time visitors to the city. Here is a brief description of the trip:

* Monday, January 18, 2021 through Sunday, January 24, 2021.

* 7 days, 6 nights in a high-end apartment in Copacabana Beach. Each person will have their own private suite.

* Breakfast included each day, cooked in-house. Lunch and dinner at local restaurants, also included.

* Excursions with English-speaking guide to see all the major sites, including Corcovado, Sugar Loaf, and the famous beaches. All entrance fees included.

* Transportation provided with private van and driver.

* Two Portuguese lessons via Skype prior to arrival and daily one-hour Portuguese lessons in person during the stay.

* Additional classes to learn more about Brazilian culture, music, food, etc.

This is a new service and we would like to find three or four adventurous souls to try out the experience and give us feedback on how we can refine the service for future full-price clients. For this first group, we're asking 0.32 BTC from each person, which should allow us to pay for all our out-of-pocket costs. Not included in the package is airfare to and from Rio (we hope to include that in the future) as well as drinks and any incidental purchases.

NOTE: Brazil took the worst of the pandemic but the numbers have been stable or declining for awhile, especially in the Rio area. The city is open for flights and everything is returning to normal. Citizens of most countries, including the USA, Canada, and most of western Europe do not need a visa in advance to visit Brazil.

That's the spiel. If this interests you, please send me a DM for more details. If all sounds good, we can set up a time to talk via Skype.
