Ready to go

The countdown has started or to be precise I've finally decided to relocate to Brazil for a while. I've instructed the estate agent to let my property and I'm preparing all the documents needed in order to apply for a student visa. Student visa you may ask? Yes I know I'm no spring chicken but after considering all the diffrent kind of visas this is the most flexible option, or that's what I think, will see. The city I've chosen is Londrina in the Parana state. I've been there 20 years ago and it didn't impress me much as I've always been in love with Rio. Recently I've travelled a couple of times in the North east and there are several interesting places. So why I've decided for Londrina? First of all my long time friend Wagner lives there and I'll try not to bother him much but it essential to have a strong contact until I'll be more confident with the idioma. A second point is the south of Brasil is much more European than the north and I'll have time to acclimatize sooner. In trhe mean time that I''ll gather more precise info of the various stages of the move I'll ask to some of my international friends to write on my blog on any topic and language they wish. Any reference to "....change" will be much appreciated! Keep posted. Beijo.
