Hello jeysi,

It will be nice if you introduce yourself聽

What do you like about Brazil ? Have you read the blogs already in the following section : Blogs from expats in S茫o Paulo. They could inspire you聽

Cheers,
Bhavna

Hello jeysi,

S茫o Paulo is the largest city in South America, and while there are many expats who live there it is difficult to meet them (unless you work with them) because the city is so spread out. That said, yes it is quite a tourist friendly city at any rate.

The cost of living and accommodations in S茫o Paulo is very high, hotel accommodations in areas removed from the city center start at around R$125 per night (off season) and go up from there. They are considerably higher in the city center and more desirable neighborhoods.

Brazil has very high crime rates, so you need to take extra precautions not to make yourself a target for crime. You should read and carefully follow all of the safety tips in my posting A Gringo's Survival Guide to Brazil.

If you don't speak Portuguese you may find great difficulty in communicating with people in Brazil because English is not widely spoken here.

Cheers,

Thank you for all your responses. I'll sure take note of that. 馃槈馃槉. For now maybe I'll聽 start to learn their language (though it's pretty tough to learn) 馃槉聽 and hopefully I could get there and find other expats and share our experiences.
