Brazil: Probably the Best Country in the World to Live In

Wanted to post this article from the no.1 gringo website on Brazil, gringoes.com

http://www.gringoes.com/articles.asp?ID_Noticia=1221

The best thing it comments on is on the cordial man.

"The Brazilian writer Sergio Buarque de Holanda described the typical Brazilian as the "homen cordial", or cordial man, by which he referred to the informality, tolerance and easy-going nature of most Brazilian social interaction, when compared to other cultures."

Best thing in Brazil?

We all love Colombia, simon.
I bet you've never been to Brazil.
Neither have I.
But, I nearly convinced someone in particular, today, to go there and live and work...
Because I know "just enough'' about it to know that PERHAPS.... this poster is RIGHT ON!

nothin I say is to be takn for my words, but rather for the words of Sailor Jerry.

The best thing in Brazil?

That out of 10 people, 10 are easy to get on with.

That the food and drink is fantastic: jugo de bojo or lulo is great, but suco de babacu, pitanga etc different class...

That the landscapes are incredible.

Of course its no paradise, do you research on the place. One of the best things about Brazil is its size. Theres a lot of places to find what you like.
