		<description><![CDATA[Hi all, I&#8217;ve been meaning for some time to sit down and write about television in Brasil. As regular readers know, I love Brasil &#8211; else why would I be here? But all places have their drawbacks. Brasil&#8217;s is its television programming. Now I want to clarify right up front that Brasil has a flourishing [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Hi all, So as you know by now, I recently relocated to Parati, a small town about 3 1/2 hours from Rio. I like my new little townhouse, and the gym is just across the street, so this morning I dodged Parati&#8217;s version of rush hour (maybe 5 cars, as many bicycles, several motorcycles, and [...]

I happen to have a weaken for their pastel chinese de carne, which is a deep-fried doughy pastry filled with ground spiced beef. Just completely wrong and [...]

There, perched in the chair in the corner, sat a mosquito. Now, there is nothing unusual itself about a mosquito in my house. At any given moment, [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone, Wow, that&#8217;s a big word for so early in the day. But it&#8217;s been on my mind this last week and a half since I arrived in Paraty. Paraty is, to use an overworked term, quaint. It&#8217;s a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In earlier days, Paraty was the terminus of the Gold Road, [...]

But it&#8217;s still Brasil, as I was reminded yesterday. As a condition of my being granted permanent residency here in Brasil, I had to open a microempresa [...]

I arrived in Rio a bit over a week ago, and yesterday I had accomplished all I [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Hi all, I’ve been back in Brazil a few days now after a visit of almost 3 months in the US. My return stimulated a few thoughts, so here they are, in more or less chronological order: There is no stereotypical “Brazilian” face. You may picture coffee-colored folks with brown eyes, but the Brazilian dentist [...]

It’s in a great location, but lacks two things: internet access and air conditioning. I’m Carioca enough these days that I can do without the A/C. But do without internet access? [...]
