NEW BLOG: Happens in Brazil – Curitiba
14 Wednesday Sep 2011
Posted in BLOGS & LINKS:, CITIES: Curitiba
Hello fellow readers.
My name is Raphael, I was born in Curitiba, PR – Brazil back in December 24th 1982.
I lived in the USA twice (1999-2000 and 2003-2004), that’s where I learned to speak English.
My bachelor degree in computer analysis was earned in 2006 at PUC-PR one of the largest catholic universities of Brazil.
I’m really into high tech stuff and most of the time and early adopter of new gadgets.
The main idea of this blog is to share information about how we live down here in Brazil.
If you’re curious about another cultures or are wondering “should I go to Brazil”. Here you’ll find enough info to decide.
Hope that you like my postings and spread the HappensInBrazil blog address to your family and friends.

| “This is a blog about the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where I lived for nine months, first as a tourist and then as an English teacher. The self-dubbed “Marvelous City” is getting a lot of attention these days. It will host the 2016 summer Olympics and the final game of the 2014 World Cup. Vast amounts of oil were recently discovered off the coast. And Rio remains one of the world’s most famous and infamous cities. Here, I’ll relate some of my own stories while also following Rio in the news.” |

| “Welcome! I have created this site as a resource for English speaking expats and new residents in Rio das Ostras, RJ, Brazil because while there are numerous websites and resources for expats living in Macae, I have found nothing for those of us who have chosen to live a little bit outside the bubble. I’ll be adding new information to the site often, including restaurant reviews, local attractions, classes, culture, everyday living and more. If you would like to contribute, or make a request for specific information, please send an email to me at tomebug (at) gmail (dot) com. Be sure to like our Facebook page. There will be updates on upcoming one-time events and performances which won’t always be posted on this site. if you have information to share, feel free to join the conversation!”  |

| Brazil, Country of the Present
I am a German expat living in São Paulo with my family (more or less since 2009), working in management for a German chemical multinational. Previously I have worked for the same company on a global level and for a consulting firm in Europe. I studied Economics and Business Administration in Germany and the USA. The only place I have lived for longer than in Brazil in my life is Germany, but I have also moved in and out of Africa (twice) and the USA (twice). This is my second time to Brazil. (Dec 10) |
