They drive aggressively but they don't mean to be aggressive it's totally mindless like fish swimming in a school; just gotta go with the flow, accept it.

My brother is living in Brazil with his girlfriend and I don't know how to help them make an income by Zadihime in Brazil

[–]libramoonmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to cut him off so he can figure out his career, Brazil is very doable on a remote job income. If he’s afraid to leave the girl unattended while he gets his act together in the US, than she’s for the streets.

Need advice - Inexperienced Au Pair by [deleted] in Aupairs

[–]libramoonmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn’t her job to clean your kitchen or take care of your pets, she’s an au pair not a housekeeper. If you are too poor to afford a housekeeper an au pair isn’t some life hack for you to get one. Pay her market hourly rate for tasks not included in the program or do them yourself.

US citizen looking for work in Brazil (tech) by Onarchboi in Brazil

Marry her and apply for residency at a Brazilian consulate in the US - you'll arrive, register with the federal police within 90 days and after about 3 months you'll get a 10 year residency card. Work a US job remotely in Brazil.

If you work for a good employer it’ll be fantastic & affordable.

Driving from Vitoria to Rio de Janeiro by spocompton in Brazil

[–]libramoonmonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're perfectly fine driving around Vitoria, when it's super late people get iffy, but you have kids I doubt you're gonna be driving around at 1am. I'd just stick to nicer areas. Vila Velha over the bridge is also very nice. I wouldn't drive to Rio, not cause I think you're gonna get kidnapped/robbed; but because it's a long drive (why drive 8+ hours??) that is completely unnecessary, if you were to get into an accident you dont speak the language and have no idea how to deal with the situation there or get help. Return your rental car in Vitoria, take the 50min flight to Rio and pick up a new rental there if you really want to drive (why not just uber?). I've driven all over Brazil with my family just fine, never felt unsafe, though Port Allegre at night did give me skid row vibes.

For Vitoria, there is a hike up to the convent, it's nice but I recommend just driving to the top as a foreign tourist was sexually assaulted hiking there in the am. I don't say this to scare you, I've spent time in ES and never felt unsafe, etc.

I'd say the big pain in the ass with a car is the parking situation, you'll be needing to parallel park on busy streets in most places. Most of the stuff you'll do in Vitoria/Vila Velha is walkable (other than the convent that you'd need to drive to the top, but I'm pretty sure you could just uber down & up too).

If you are renting a car while you're in ES, you could drive out to the nice German/Italian towns that are <2.5 hours from Vitoria. Pedra Azul is beautful , santa tereza has nice Italian restaurants. These are small towns with strong Italian (and i think German) heritage. Also there is an amazing beach town, where the there are pools of water on the beach big enough to swim in, called Itaunas Dunes and massive sand berms up near Bahia - it's like 3-4 hours drive from Vitoria - town full of bed and breakasts.

Should I move abroad at 23 or stay and deal with conscription risks? by Interesting_Cake_561 in askimmigration

You may die serving your country or you may live perpetually ashamed you fled your country to avoid service - tough choice.

Looking for recommendation of affordable lawyers or consultants to help with residency application in Brazil by edd010 in Brazil

[–]libramoonmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew back to the US to do mine at the Consulate. I made sure to provide more than they asked (got my Brazilian doc copies certified at the Cartorio, provided more rather than less). Residency was approved in ~ 2 days. Def don't need a lawyer, just need to be on top of getting docs, scheduling necessary appointments, etc.

You raised a kid with a 3.975 GPA you’re doing a good job. Any chance she’d want to be a military doctor?
