  • This video is about what Gramado and Canela. They are two towns in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in the south of Brazil and many think they are the best towns to live in Brazil. In this video I will give my opinion of what it is like to live there.
    I am Swedish and I moved to Brazil 5 years ago and in this video I will share my experiences of living in Brazil.

    I thought you were Brazilian... you look like a typical Brazilian from the South! I'm from Canada, and I just came back from Brazil. Visited a few cities in the South, including Gramado. Very nice city, I wouldn't mind living there!

    For a Brazilian the entire point of Gramado is the place being cold. People go there to feel the cold weather and maybe see some snow if they are lucky.
    Even on the Nordeste region there are towns where temperatures can go bellow 15 degrees. They become touristic spots and people go there just to be in an cold place. In Pernambuco, the Gramado equivalent is called Garanhuns.

      First of all, Gramado is the best city in Brazil if the person doesn't care much about cold winter and beach. It is really beautiful city, i guess the only city i feel pleasure walking on the street in Brazil.
      The merit is mainly from local people. However gramado receive money from federal government only one example; www.gov.br/turismo/pt-br/assuntos/ultimas-noticia/gramado-recebe-r-35-milhoes-do-turismo
      In my opinion gramado and canela would be better if they were like faroe islands. If they have their own legal system and tax system, for sure they would have exponential growth. The salary would increase so high. By the way, if they accepted dolar and euro as city state as dubai. The cities would attratch more investiment around the world.
      People usually buy property in gramado for renting not to live, thats one of the reason the cost of living is so high. Normally people which works gramado live far from downton. Well it would change if it was city state.
      Brazil has centralized system it means the around 65- 75% city revenue goes straight for federal goverment. When it comes back so few 1-5% to the city. Around 20% goes state goverment.
      So the weight of the govermment is very harmful for cities.
      I'm not from any south state, before someone comment.

    Gramado might not be too appealing for someone who spent their entire lives in countries with harsh winters... But it is paradise for someone born and raised in the tropics. Cold weather is something Brazilians, for instance, have in high regard.

    Nice video, Nordic Investor. All the region these cities are located has a different architecture because of its hystory. By the way, these towns don't receive money from governments. All credits go to local population. This region is what is because of the people that live there, not because the authorities.

    • @nordicinvestor
      @nordicinvestor  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      It is a bit easier to get around Gramado speaking English compared to other nearby towns because Gramado has a lot of tourists. However you will still find many store workers, waiters, taxi drivers etc who speak no English or German. I took my parents to Gramado and I had to be a translator for them as they speak no Portuguese.

      Gramado rent is fairly expensive compared to other towns in the area. Rent for a 2 bed apartment is R$3000 to R$5000 ($600 to $1000) per month. All depends on size and how close to the town centre you want to be.

In a meal, you can easily spend 30-50 U$$ per person. Brazil is a cheap country, but we have some places that are so expensive as Europe or USA. About the language, Yes, you need portuguese. At least you have to speak Spanish if you want to work for tourism in Florianópolis or Balneário Camboriú. Gramado you will gonna see just brazillians - the richest.

    I really dislike Gramado... Its sort of a "Touristown" and not very authentic, too crowded and full of tourists.
    But i understand it as a token for southener culture in Brazil, kinda like a place they celebrate their heritage once supressed in the country (during ww2).
    Personally, i really like Campos do Jordão. Buying a house there to escape the heat during the summer months here in Rio is definelly a goal of mine.

      Campos do Jordão is REALLY FAKE, because there was no german our swiss setllement there. They just made all up to attract tourists. Gramado is VERY italian an German, as you can see by the surnames of most people there.

      zhe germans surely arrived at Gramado in zhe yar 1820 und built zhe most authentic McDonald's with zhe most authentic german triangular roof.
      The reason both cities built like they did is exactly the same. Tourism.
      Even Espirito Santo has more authentic towns.

      @@_Bruno_Cesar_ I would say that Gramado and Canela are more italian than german, by their real origin. My city, São Leopoldo, was founded by the first german immigrants to come to Brazill in 1824, but they spread around and other places like Blumenau, SC or Igrejinha, RS are more famous for the german ancestry nowdays.
