Brazil

good question. i'd like to know that too. anybody have any first hand experience trading from there?

About the time of the year, i meant how lively it is not really the weather. i heard that our winter-their summer is the best time to go. I wanted to know what August was like. Thanks

Does it make a huge difference what time of year you got to Brazil? Would August be ok, or is it more quite there b/c its winter?

In the North is always hot. The average temps here in Recife is about 83 F. In the south, the weather is more variable.

stood out like a sore thumb being a gringo!!

:D

i luv the food over there. bbq brazilian style!! fried majorca, beef, salads, all the fruit etc - cant go wrong.


whats the internet connectivity like out there??

my chick wants to move back over there but im a bit hesitant cos i didnt think id be able to trade much. can i get dsl/cable access??

The connectivity is not a problem. Right now im using a 600k DSL connection to trade and it works perfect for me. You can have 1 mega DSL connection if you want. For my 600k connection, I pay 40 USD. You can have cable and wirelless connections too.

If you are going to Fortaleza eastward, go July through December. Its the driest time and windiest time. 20 knot wind daily to keep you cool. There is a reason why the area is rapidly attracting windsurfers/ kiteboarders in large numbers. This is the main reason I am going there (August through X mas I think).

I lived in Quito Ecuador for three months. Great city, and cheap as hell. I rented a penthouse apartment for $300 per month. Its always been a mess there though. I got tear gassed while there. On the other hand, there was no crime that I was aware of. Felt quite safe to wander around in the middle of the night.

How'd you get tear gassed?

I was visiting the University up on the hill (very cool place), and some students were having a demonstration vs the Government. It was peaceful, but someone decided it was too big, so cops in full riot gear arrived, and without warning started lobbing tear gas canisters.

No big deal actually. I just sprinted out of the area as soon as I realized what was going on. It did sting a bit though.

This was in 1992.
