What is life like as an expat in your area?

When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...

"Peoples lives, no joke, revolve around the beach and sports. You will meet many people by just going to the beach or walking on the beach front and around the Lagoa (lagoon). Brazilians are very easy going; they talk to you all the time and everywhere. Some knowledge of the language is essential. Nobody, outside the tourist industry, speaks any English or any other language for that matter, but Portuguese," said another expat in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

"Life for expats and digital nomads in Rio de Janeiro is generally quite enjoyable. The city is known for its vibrant culture, stunning beaches, and lively nightlife. Expats and digital nomads can find plenty of coworking spaces, cafes, and restaurants to work from, as well as plenty of activities to enjoy in their free time. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other cities in Brazil, making it an attractive destination for those looking to live and work abroad. Additionally, the city is home to a large expat community, making it easy to meet new people and make friends," wrote a member who made the move to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
