Comments On Safety In Brazil & The Weekly Recap
Aug 13, 2021 3:01 pm
Dear Reader,
It's been another busy week here in Brazil, I am out every day making new contacts, taking meetings, and learning as much as I can about the country, people, culture and the investment opportunities available. It's interesting, recently I had a subscriber warn me about promoting Brazil as there are a lot of problems in certain cities regarding safety...
I think this is important to note, I am not promoting all of Brazil; really I am trying to showcase how excellent life can be in Florianópolis, the city where I am staying. Although this is my 5th time in Brazil, there are still tons of places I have not seen and I try to only make recommendations based on my own experiences and research. I feel very confident about the opportunities where I am staying in Florianópolis and feel it is a very safe place.
If you are interested in learning more about our time in Brazil, including some videos of us shopping for another home here and my opinions on where the top place to invest is then come subscribe to our brand new YouTube channel.
By the way, there are no lockdowns or curfews here, besides some people wearing masks, it feels like normal life, which is very refreshing.
Anyways, that's all, enjoy this week's content below!
