Hi Tirej,

If you haven't already done so read my postings "A Gringo's Survival Guide for Brazil" and "The High Cost of Living in São Paulo - how to economie". While the latter was written for new members coming to São Paulo the information still applies to Rio as well. The Survival Guide contains just about all the information you will need to get you off to a great start here in Brazil. Welcome to Expat-blog and to Brazil.

Cheers,

Hi Selin T,

Well your best starting point is to read all of my postings at the top of the first Brazil Forum page, they will give you all of the factual information you need to know about life in and living in Brazil.

Once you've done all that then I'm sure you will quickly make lots of new friends all over Brazil just by participating in the forum, post a topic, respond to topics and soon your contact list will grow by leaps and bounds.

Welcome to Expat-blog, I really hope you will have lots of fun here.

Cheers,
