The I LOVE RIO book is based on the work of the ILOVERIO.COM portal, an ambitious project with the objective of making accurate and qualified information about Rio de Janeiro easily available globally, along with tens of thousands of unique and exclusive photographs. Defined by the media as the first city ever rebuilt on-line, I LOVE RIO provides over 25,000 pages of original content celebrating the history, culture and beauty of the city and state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. "Eu Amo Rio", meaning "I love Rio", is an important local expression and a key part of the Carioca culture, therefore the phrase 'I LOVE RIO' was chosen as the name and symbol of the project and translated in more than 50 languages, divulging internationally a message of love and pride for Rio de Janeiro. As a one-of-a-kind project, I LOVE RIO is designed to show the City and the State of Rio de Janeiro from unique historical, touristic and cultural perspectives. The portal offers innovative interpretations, beyond the traditionally available on-line information for visitors and users. The multi-level content was conceived to give a quick touristic reference, and to show how each characteristic of Rio de Janeiro developed, providing an explanation of how various parts of Rio de Janeiro affect the residents' lives, traditions, artistic and cultural productions. The I LOVE RIO portal garnered the institutional endorsement of over 40 Brazilian entities at the Municipal, State and Federal levels, making of the portal an institutionally-backed, but independent platform with an extraordinary global reach. On July 26th 2016, the portal was officially launched and presented to the world via an unforgettable and unprecedented ceremony when the I LOVE RIO symbol was projected on the iconic monument of Christ the Redeemer, formally adding the portal to the cultural landscape of Rio de Janeiro. This book offers a glimpse in some of the most important aspects of Rio de Janeiro, an overall introduction to one of the most fascinating and complex cities in the world. The book contains QR-codes, providing direct links to the latest on-line content for any given topic.

"THINK RIO: a guide to the Carioca soul" is a complete, fun and insightful look into the modern culture of Rio de Janeiro. Developed by a team of writers and researchers from Rio de Janeiro, the US and Europe, this book addresses many facets of Carioca thinking in a simple and compelling style, presenting local customs to be easily understood by people of all nations and backgrounds. Socializing, carnival, reveillon, beach life, dining manners, business etiquette, favela tours behavior and many more topics are interpreted and explained through the eyes of local residents, with an international view. Day-to-day customs, folklore, hundreds of proverbs and Carioca expressions come together to create a guide to the soul of one of the most beautiful, complex and fascinating cities in the world. Furthermore, dozens of QR-codes throughout the book allow access to on-line content, where links to other publications and academic papers can be found, for further reading and research. The QR-codes make the content of the book easy to share using any smartphone. THINK RIO is based on the work of the ILOVERIO.COM portal, an ambitious project making accurate and qualified information about Rio de Janeiro easily available globally, along with thousands of exclusive photographs. Because the objective of this book is to emphasize the Carioca culture, and not the scenery, there are no pictures in this book. This book is an instant classic and a must-have for all who love Rio and Brazil!
