A bit about me

My husband and I have lived in Brazil for over a decade now, and we can't imagine returning to the States. Doesn't mean we don't appreciate all that America has done for us. We both received solid educations there. We have family ties there. We still pay federal income tax and take a keen interest in the U.S. political scene. But for retirees, living abroad can insure a quality of life that's simply no longer available in the U.S., and without running through our entire nest egg to boot. Here in Brazil we have super health care, a simpler, stress-free life, and friends from all over the world. Life abroad is not for everyone. There are risks, uncertainties, frustrations . . . but as you read through my tropical daydreams, see if you don't agree that the rewards are worth it.
