Young single woman moving to Brazil

Hey everyone

I am looking to move to Brazil very soon to teach English. I know Portuguese already so I think I should be able to find something.

I had two questions though

If I decide I don't want to teach English when I get there but want to do another job instead would that be very difficult, especially to find one which paid well. I was working in TV but in a very specific field and so I would have to start from scratch in another career where they need someone with good english presumably, but would this mean I'd earn minimum wage and not have very good career prospects?

Secondly I was just wondering what it's like for single expat women in Brazil (main cities like Rio). Are Brazilian men open to dating expats or is it harder than the London dating scene.

Thanks so much

Lyra

Brasilian men will date a tree with a hole in it.

WHY YOU DON'T TRY THIS FIRST....
I work for AIG in the travel insurance department and we have a worldwide travel assistance center here in Houston that is a back up for our Portugal office as well as other countries and we are looking for a person that speaks all three languages fluently and Portuguese at the native level. Please feel free to pass along my contact information.

Thank you so much.

Portugal has ZERO to do with Brazil.

You will do fine in Brazil, they need foreigners, they need more people with skills and Brazilian people are more secure and make friends easy compare to a person from the US or UK, who are more concentrated on themselves.
