Living in Cuiabá
Brazil · tropical
Cuiabá is a mid-sized city of roughly 620,000 people inland in Brazil. The climate is tropical. It sits well off the usual tourist trail though personal safety is worth weighing carefully. A typical month of living costs around $950. Healthcare is reasonable, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for wildlife and birdwatching, fishing, quiet days.
È uno dei posti dove vivere fuori rete è davvero praticabile, sia per legge sia per spazio. Chi nasce in Brazil è cittadino, quale che sia la nazionalità dei genitori.
