The Locals of Brasil
By Max: I will be talking about all things Brazil and all the opportunities. This is a huge and amazing country that finally seems to have found it’s place in the world. This is a special moment for this country and there are opportunities in every place you look. Not that it wasn’t important in the world before, but it was overlooked. We always had great natural resources but we never took advantage of it. Now the world has realized our importance and are looking at us as a big player for every market.

My Life in Havaianas
By Paulistinha: All stories have a beginning, though not all stories have a clear plot. Mine started in a mixture of boredom and heartbreak, and moves forward [though much less complicatedly now] in the spirit of courage, ambition, adventure, and curiosity. I am exploring a new land and culture, and re-creating myself in the process.

Coconut Water
By Brynn: From Atlanta to Washington DC to Rio de Janeiro and finally settling in Vitoria, Brazil. For now. In high school, I studied French. In college, I studied Arabic. In grad school, I studied political campaigns in India. I considered a lot of life possibilities but living in Brazil, anywhere in South America, was never one of them. Then I met and married the smartest man I’ve ever known, who happened to be from Brazil.

Qualidade de Vida
By Jim: We arrived in Brazil in January, 2008 to start up a new chapter in our life together. Luiz has returned to his hometown and I've jumped into the deep end of the pool ready for anything. Let the fun begin!

Born Again Brazilian

Life in Barra Brazil
By Sara: How did we end up in Brazil? The oil brought us to be honest. I wish I could say that it was more. That we fell in love with the culture, the people, the language or even the food and decided to pack our bags and move. We did however want to move to another country and experience life outside the US and our company offered my husband a position in Brazil.
