Just do it.! Don't wait for anything or anyone . La vie est courte.
Y'a pas grand-chose à faire à part rester en tant que résident non permanent...

Grâce à leur visa de touriste, les titulaires de passeports canadiens sont autorisés à entrer plusieurs fois au pays. Ce visa est habituellement valide pendant cinq ans à compter de la date de délivrance. La période autorisée de séjour se limite à 90 jours par visite. Toutefois, il est possible de demander une prolongation du séjour auprès de la Police fédérale du Brésil, pour un séjour d’une durée maximale de 180 jours par année. Une telle prolongation doit être demandée avant la fin de la période autorisée de séjour

La règle est : 6 mois autorisés sur 12. Mais par périodes de 3 mois maximum. Donc on est loin des pays au sud où, si l'on n'est pas résident, il suffit de faire un aller-retour à la frontière tous les trois mois. Au Brésil, comme résidents, ils ne veulent que des gros friqués.

Bonjour,
Ca marche comme ca: Tu fais un voyage avec un séjour de 90 jours qui est la durée maximum au Brésil; sur place tu changes demande a la police de rallonger to visa de 90 jours about de ces 180 jours tu sors du territoire Brésilien. Obligatoirement! Si tu dépasse il risque de ne pas te laisser rentrer. Une fois sur place si il te connaisse il se peut même qu'on te laisse obtenir ce visa permanent. C'est déjà arrive car la bas il y une loi nationale, une loi locale et une loi de complaisance et aussi une loi de l'argent.

Suite a mon email, attention une précision ; la durée maximum de 90 jours libre et 90 jours sur visa oblige le voyageur a ne pas se représenter au brésil pendant 180 jours. Si vous vous présentez malgré tout il y un amende d'un maximum de 850 réais a payer sur le champs et on vous laisse rentrer.
bjr,
Si vous avez des revenus complementaires genre revenus locatif , assurance vie etc vous pouvez le faire valoir avec les preuves lors de votre demande
mais cela ne va pas vous amenez a grand chose car cette actualisation à 6000 reais à ete fait pour tenir compte du cout de la vie en progression constante .
il y a des ajustements regulierement - cette fois ci la somme a été pour la premiere fois fixée en Reais.

Le brésil est un pays très complexe, avec presque 2.000 euros de retraite, il y a mille fois mieux que le brésil, qui est devenu extrêmement cher et où la violence est omniprésente. Ne serait-ce que l'argentine est plus abordable, moins dangereux et les argentins plus ouverts et cultivés, mar del plata est vraiment sympa.
Et on m'a dit aussi du bien de Cordoba. Parce que moi j'ai fait la sottise d'être résident au Paraguay car c'était administrativement facile d'y être résident, la monnaie est stable et la vie pas trop chère. Mais c'est au niveau humain que ça ne va pas (je ne développe pas ici ça serait trop long). J'ai des circonstances atténuantes : je ne le savais pas et ne pouvais pas le savoir. Mais je rectifie mon erreur. Je garde mes comptes bancaires en guaranis (9.5 % par an comme compte à terme, c'est pas le livret A) et mon statut de résident mais je vais aller vivre dans un endroit meilleur au niveau humain (et géographique parce qu'au Paraguay on ne peut que défiler qu'entre deux rangées de barbelés et c'est lassant). J'aurais donc un faible pour l'Argentine et les argentins.

Il est vrai qu'il est difficile de se faire une idée de la vie dans tel ou tel pays sans y avoir vécu, hormis le coup de la vie.
L'argentine effectivement de tout ce que j'en lis et de mes 10 jours de vacances me parait être un chouette pays, qui a comme tous les autres ses avantages et inconvénients, mais qui présente l'avantage d'être moins cher que le brésil, plus ouvert, et moins dangereux (2 agressions au brésil en 6 mois et 4 cartes bleue clonées). Il faut profiter tant que l'immobilier n'est pas encore trop cher, car il va augmenter petit a petit.

Tout n'est pas tout noir dans la vraie vie, mais pour moi les aspects négatifs l'emportent. Je crois que les français, en général, n'aiment pas vivre dans un pays où ils ne peuvent avoir aucun contact authentique (donc pas seulement avec la caissière du supermarché) avec la population locale. Les allemands, eux, sont heureux au Paraguay ! Ils peuvent acheter de grandes et belles maisons ce qui serait inconcevable dans leur pays. Ils ne sortent donc pas de leur belle maison (de toute façon il n'y a rien à voir au Paraguay), se reçoivent entre eux, les paraguayens ne sont que des domestiques (correctement payés) avec lesquels ils n'ont pas de relations (alors qu'en Afrique noire occidentale, le "petit boy" faisait partie de la famille, on s'intéressait à lui et on lui apprenait des choses). Bon, faut aimer cette vie là. Perso je n'aime pas. Outre les paysages, j'aime bien bavarder avec les gens qui vivent dans ce paysage.

C'est intéressant à savoir. Je ne connais absolument rien du Paraguay, on entend assez peu parler de cette destination.

Le Paraguay a le douteux privilège d'être le deuxième pays le plus corrompu d'Amérique du sud (le premier étant le Venezuela) et le 150e mondial sur 175. Ce qui surprend (et des pays j'en ai vu pas mal) c'est l'absence totale de curiosité, de désir de sortir de sa condition (de pauvre, d'illettré, d'acculturé) et même de gagner des sous (autrement qu'en les volant). Je parle de la jeunesse, bien sûr, qui devrait, en toute bonne logique être plus disponible que ses parents.
Pour expliquer cela, car même l'illogique s'explique si on sort des structures mentales conscientes, il faut faire un peu d'histoire et remonter à la "Guerre de la Triple Alliance" (allez voir sur Wikipédia) où les 3/4 de la population masculine s'est trouvée massacrée dans une guerre absurde (comme beaucoup). Les femmes ont alors eu l'énorme responsabilité de repeupler démographiquement le pays ce qui a hypertrophié la matriarchie (tendance déjà naturelle dans les sociétés agricoles) et la famille. Cela est passé dans l'inconscient tyrannique, le "sur-moi" du docteur Freud (qui précise que celui-ci provient des grands parents), et ceci explique que la famille est devenue "un dieu jaloux" qui ne permet aucune autre relation humaine qu'elle soit d'amitié, d'association ou même de camarade de travail. Ceci explique aussi que le Paraguay ne vit que dans des toutes petites structures familiales et qu'il lui est impossible d'envisager un développement industriel car jamais les paraguayens accepteront de sortir de leur milieu familial pour vivre ailleurs avec d'autres gens. Un exemple : mon jeune jardinier vingtenaire avec lequel je m'entendais très bien s'est fait interdire par sa tante (lui est orphelin de mère) d'aller jardiner chez moi car moi je le payais alors que sa tante qui s'en sert comme d'un esclave domestique ne le paye pas et j'étais alors un mauvais exemple (en plus d'être un extranjero donc un diable)

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.

I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that...

I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Hi,
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄

Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
Hello. We’re a couple with an 11-year-old daughter and we’re looking for a good deal on a bar and/or restaurant in the tourist areas of Playa del Carmen, Tulum, or Mérida. If anyone knows of one or is on the ground and can give us some great tips, we’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Safe travels.
