Keeping in Touch in Brazil
With the Internet and Internet-based calls, keeping in touch with friends and family back home and across the world has never been easier or cheaper. Internet access is easy in all of Brazil’s large cities. Travelling to smaller villages or into the interior does provide some problems when trying to communicate with the outside world.
Wireless LAN is sometimes available in the interior of the country and the larger cities; Wi-Fi hotspots are growing in number across the nation.
Most expats moving to Brazil will find that the only thing impacting the frequency of communication with friends and family is their social life.
Brazil’s cellular telephone networks support GSM and 3G and coverage is generally good within urban areas. However, in order to have access to a cellular telephone expats will need a residence visa. Brazil’s postal service makes posting gifts and receiving care parcels easy.
In short Brazil’s Internet and communication capabilities are just what you would expect from any modern country intent on keeping in touch with global business trends.
