    I have no doubt that you chose one of the best big cities in Brazil to live in. I'm from Curitiba and I know 13 state capitals in total, which are generally the biggest cities, and I wouldn't trade Curitiba for anything. Be very happy in Curitiba, capital of the beautiful state of Paraná.

    Curitiba is indeed the nicest city in the country, been there a few years ago. I live in Rio de Janeiro, on the rural area. Lived on the Metropolitan Region II (east of Guanabara Bay) for most of my life, and urban life here is hell. The rural side is nice, but the mountainous region (serra) also has some nice cities like Petrópolis, but it's a rare exception.

There is a orchestra who regularly shows in theatre Guaira. There is a conservatory of popular brazilian music with a great choir (Brasileirão). Often many great artists do shows here.

I worked at UFPR in Centro and lived in Cabral at an apartment for a while. Cabral and juveve are great neighborhoods near Centro. But my best experience was moving a bit out of downtown and renting a great "casa em condomínio ", a house in a gated community where you can enjoy more space and comfort without compromising in safety

    Brazil free health care system is very good and works well everywhere. Problem is that middle class Brazilians have prejudice against it, so they speak down without ever have tried it.

      ​@TheBrazilVenture the first time expat was used it was from the Brittish, having all the colonies they didn't want to be mis with the "others" sontjey are star using the word expat because they thought they were better than the rest. There were imigrants thought all times that had money and others they didn't, some highly educated and other no, someone's stay in the new country and others go with the intention of returning and they sent all their money back home. Imigrant is the right word and it also identifies someone who is brave enough to let go of everything familiar and conftarble to go for an adventure.

      I think it used to be the right word. In today's (work)culture and with globalization in general, I do believe that there is an important distinction between the two words.

    Thanks!! I wish you and husband the best!! I ask you kindly ;would you recommend a girl or a woman alone to live in Brazil and forever? Is it easy to find a steady job of any kind I mean always legal and serious for a girl or a woman alone? Are the food and the drinks well controlled so good quality and well kept? Does life cost a lot? Is life Hpw is minimum wage? Is it dangerous for a woman alone? Are Brazilians very friendly to every foreigners from all over the world? Can we keep working with our european bank or must we open a bank account in Brazil? Thanks!!

    Curitiba is great, but even in the Paraná state, theres better cities like Maringá and Londrina to live in.
    But again, in the São Paulo state there's a lot more places to live better than Curitiba, actually 80% of the best cities to live in Brazil, are located in the state of São Paulo, if you want a small city, a middle one, a big one or a huge one, São Paulo state is the answer.
    Curitiba is a lovely city, but the people behave like germans, and theres traffic, favelas, etc, my city (São Carlos/SP) have 250k people and has no traffic, no favelas and our people are the smartest in Brazil (São Carlos has the biggest concentration of doctors {with doctored} of Brazil). We have 2 of the 10 best universities of Brazil (USP and UFSCar) here, the national titles of my city are "capital of technology", "city of whether (clime)", because we are a national powerhouse in the tech field, and our whether is just good as Brazil's can offer. max of 32 °C, min of 5°C in the whole year, and our people are kind.

      @@TheBrazilVenture I have no problem with helping those who need help, but to keep taxing the little remaining middle class into nothing will eventually break the system, this is not sustainable. Also how are the few responsible for the many?! How about a place where people actually take care of themselves as opposed to charging a few people with the care and well being of the many?! Not trying to sound like a horrible cold person, but again this is not feasible on the long term.

      @@TheBrazilVenture It's not because it's fatty, salty, or sweet that I don't love it. I like spices, herbs, and aromatics, which are all nearly absent in Brazilian cuisine. There's a certain bland doughy texture that they like, too, in coxinha and pao de queijo. When they do get fancy, it means giant squiggles of mayo. That said, I do like luncheonettes for their vibe and unpretentiousness. There's something democratic about them that's been lost in much of the west.

      I 100% agree! I do miss herbs and aromatics sometimes too. At the same time, because Brazil is such a melting pot of cultures, you always have the option to go to an Arab, Asian, Indian or European restaurant. Plus, churrasco is king ;)
