To buy I have no idea. And it would depend greatly on where it was in the country. But here in Barra to rent is 9000R$ a month.

I thought you were doing offshore down there, but it seems the new route is much safer.

It is good to see that you are now enjoying some of the after-rewards for busting your ass all those 14 years Turbo...good for you!!

Brazil is a very exotic country with lots of natural beauty to offer. Most women there have green eyes, hazel...and other beautiful colors--blue....hummmmmm lots of witch craft also :(

Holy crap, $4500 Canadian/month for that place in brazil? Seems excessive.

Depending on where you go, Brasil IS NOT AS CHEAP as most people assume. Its no Mexico that is for sure.

Barra da Tijuca is a expensive neighborhood. The house is also in a guarded condo, you have go through a couple security gates and personal to get the house.
