You will be very very impressed in Salvador. And it will not be in a good way... Salvador has the major amount of Slums among all Brazilian Cities. Its a pity because the City has a great Potential.

Everybody all ways talks about Salvador as if it is a hell on earth if that is true then why does my future wife seem to be so happy there?I know what Salvador looks like i am familiar with the areas.Me and my ficance have a nice little place in jardim apipema which is near a lot of the tourist areas(which is a lot better than what i am doing in the U.S. and i pretty much familiar with the places i want to stay out of.
Plus there are other reasons i don't want to be in America right now.I figure it is what you make it.And even though i live ok now i was not exactly born with a silver spoon in my mouth myself.

Hi there!
There are many cities in Brazil which have nice areas...where Gringos and rich Brazilians live...maybe the mayor! But they also have many areas that are not safe. Salvador has more of them and they are worse than almost any city on the Northeast coast.
This is sad because Salvador is basically "music city" for the coast!
The same is true for Fortaleza, where I have lived for 8 years.
I live where the wealthy people live because the police keep a very close eye on this area. It's also close to the ocean where I prefer to be.
I hope your move goes well and your life in Salvador is safe.
If you take the advice of your partner, you should be fine.

Hello there!
Welcome to Brazil. Unfortunately AA meetings held in English in Brazil is still restricted to some states. In the AA brazilian website you can get more information regarding this matter in the following link:
http://www.alcoolicosanonimos.org.br/sobre-aa/sobre-as-reunioes/reunioes-em-outros-idiomas.html
There, you'll find all the AA meeting rooms in Brazil who also have English-speaking sessions.
If you need any other advice don't hesitate asking!
Best wishes!
