    I'm in Los Angeles and will be traveling solo to the World Cup for all three USA games, plus the 2nd place round-of-16 match in Salvador. Right now I have 2 extra CAT 1 USA v Ghana, and 1 extra CAT 1 USA v Portugal. I am looking for 1 (any level) USA v Germany and lodging in Natal, Fortaleza, Manaus, Recife, and Salvador.

    If there is any will to trade anything, let me know! valerian253 [at] gmail [dot] com

    My wife and I are still working on a place to stay in Recife. We arrive the morning of the US-Germany game (6/26) and will be departing at the crack of dawn 6/29 - so likely will just need a place through the 28th. Would love a recommendation.

    I'm kind of in the same boat. I have a lead on getting a match ticket through a trade or possible purchase, but I have no clue about accommodations in Recife. Looks like my best bet on travel is to arrive about 01:30 on the 26th, and leave out at 06:30 on the 27th.

    I'd be very happy to share space with any other American fans, and can also trade for space in Rio. I have a largish apartment booked from 14-22 June in Rio that I could offer space in.

    I'm sure if you can grab an extra ticket, some poor Yank will share their room with you for it.

    I'll be in Recife with a group of 7 from 6/24-28. Places to stay in recife have been harder to come by/super expensive, so we've been looking into renting a larger 4-5 BR house. We've found one in Boa Viagem that can sleep 15+ for about $200/person for the 4 nights. It looks really nice and has a pool table, outdoor pool, full kitchen, 4 full bathrooms, and washing machine. Looking for other US fans/groups that would be interested in sharing the house. We're all young professionals in our mid-20s. PM me if interested/for more info!

    yikes, so is there just no place to stay in Recife at all? I'm coming up for the match, but I think at this point I may just jump on the 19:30 flight back to Rio . . . .

    If somebody has a piece of floor or something they'd be willing to lend me (I'd be happy to contribute to your cost!) for 6-8 hours the night after USA-Germany, I'd love to stay overnight and hang out with other fans before returning.

    That would work great! Really anything is fine. I'm just wanting the option to lay my head down for a few hours before flying back to Rio.

    So I take it this bed is already reserved? Keep in touch, as I'd be plenty happy to take the reservation.

    Hi, my name is Ricky, I lived in dallas for 15 years and got back to Recife-Brazil 2 years ago. I´m looking for a group of 4 or more to help with transportation, drive from the Airport to Hotel, guide the group to beachs, to landmarks, to the game... Everything will be safe with me. I will provide one cell phone to be able to comunicate and if something happen this will help. My concern is the safety of the people that will be coming over here, I´m Brazilian, but I´m realistic, Recife it´s dangerous. So, if you are interested in this, please reply this post or send me a whatsapp at 5581-8898-8152.

    Hi guys, I wanted to mention to US travelers out there that I'll be in New Orleans, Louisiana next weekend from the evening of the 23rd through mid-day on Memorial Day, the 26th. Besides knowing a couple of y'all on here who live there, I figured I might not be the only one going down there for the holiday weekend.

    If you happen to be making the same trip for the holiday (or live in the area), it would be great to meet up and talk Brazil travel planning and World Cup football over the long weekend. There are obviously a ton of great places we could hang and chat, and I'd be happy to coordinate a time and place. If you'll be around, let me know and I'll make it happen.
