Moving from Norway to Rio De Janeiro with family

Rio de Janeiro is really so beautiful, the only problem is the violence, but it is not everywhere, all you must do is take care, just like any other big city in the world and relax, but there are so many other places in Brazil as beautiful as Rio and so less violence

When are you thinking of moving here?

Hi I am also moving out with family from Buenos Aires to Rio de Janeiro as my husband works for an energy company. I have 3 kids, 11, 8 and 18 months!!

You have two big international schools: the British and the American school. Both have pages on the web. I have already visited the British a month ago and it is highly recommendable.

About safety and security I dare to say that if you are not showy and paying attention to areas you should not get into, everything  is fine.

The city itself has some of the nicest landscapes in the world.

Regards,

Hola, junto con mi esposo y mis dos hijos de 5 y 7 anos iremos a vivir a Rio para instalarnos como expatriados.
Quisiera conocer tu experiencia con ninos alli, como lugares para ir, barrios recomendables, escuelas, atencion medica y todo lo que puedan sugerirnos.
Un agradecimiento

Do not listen to this last guy, Rio can be a wonderfull place to live once you get used to it, and yes violence is there, thatŽs why you have to be carefull and choose a nbice neighborhood to live, I have plenty of friends there and they love it... Your children will definately have a blast living there, itŽs a lively city!!!!
