Rio de Janeiro
My wife was born in Rio de Janeiro and I have been there
many times. We will be moving there from Florida to live
out our lives and to raise our children. Rio de Janeiro is
the most relaxing place on this earth. I have spent many
hours along the beach of Copacabana. Everyone that has come
to Rio de Janeiro with us is very happy the visa is for 5
years, they are excited to return again. Brasilians are
very friendly and I have been from Rio de Janeiro to Sao
Paulo, Manaus, and Fortaleza. My heart is in Rio de
Janeiro.

The greatest place on earth
I have never been to Rio. I love the music, and the place is beautiful. I play
jazz and have met a lot of people from Brazil. I love them. I love their
creativity and free spirit. Rio seems to me, it would be the closest thing to
heaven we have on this earth.

Brazil. The people are awsome, frendly, and always have a smile, really happy
people. If you go there you will want to stay thats why i have made Brazil my
home.
