Hi! I just moved to salvador (north of the city, in Itapua) about 2 months ago, and was wondering if anyone else is nearby.
It is beautiful here!

I've found it to be just a really friendly place, and the natural beauty is impressive.
I haven't ventured into the city much, having 3 little kids and not wanting to sit in traffic. Traffic is definitely a problem, I must say.

Hi Elie I live in Jauá, a bus ride away from Itapua and also on the coast. I have been here six years, so a bit more accustomed to the life style I guess. I am at home most times so if you are free at any time please feel free to visit, I will leave you to respond. telephone 3672 1127 or 36722461 or 81634534 ( can text the mobile if you prefer. I am an artist and restorer, although not working out of Brazil, I go back to Europe every year to get some work. Emails are [email protected] and at [email protected]
hope that you are well and not finding problems in Itapua. Stuart
