The importance of diplomatic representation when living in Dominica by Anne-Lise Mty
Is your home country represented in Dominica? And if it is not, do you find this is a problem? We have just posted online a piece about the importance of diplomatic representation in your host country while living abroad. Do let us know whether ...
I would imagine that would depend on what your home country is. My understanding is that France is quite helpful to its citizens who need assistance when they are overseas. England as well. The US, not so much. Read More

Current Life Conditions in Brazil by houstonrooster
My wife and I had planned to move to Brazil before the covid situation took hold. Brazil and her people are beautiful and friendly and we still love the idea of living in this amazing country. When we try to research present conditions in Brazil it ...
Personally, I would wait until 2022 and the election results are known before I made that decision. You only have to look around to see how quickly conditions can deteriorate after an election. Read More
Economic Citizenship discussion by seabays
Hi all! I am aiming to renounce U.S. citizenship within the next 3 years and realize citizenship elsewhere. I have read quite a bit about the economic citizenship (donation or residence purchase) process that Nevis & St. Kitts offers. Has anyone ...
Another question regarding St Kitts, does the government there intend to institute a digital vaccine passport and share that information with international health agencies? I can see how that could be a problem for ECs. Antigua has already run ... Read More

Racism by Julien
Do you feel racism in your country? Is it complicated to integrate yoursleft with local people or are you used to it? I really like London because the city is a lot of people from everywhere, and everybody seems to be integrated. I don't feel ...

Advice from Canadians by Drjmagic
hi, With all the COVID craziness going on in Canada, I'm starting to consider making Brazila more permanent home. There have been lots of posts from Americans and issues/suggestions involving Brazillian consulates in the US. I am wondering ...
I've been looking at that myself with the continuing border closure there. Trying to decode the statements from different Canadian agencies, it sounds like Canada will open after the population is substantially vaccinated which by their ... Read More

I find discussions about race to be rather amusing. An example...we would probably say that Nazi Germany was a racist country and the modern western world is less so, yes? ... And yet, in the 1930s Subhash Chandra Bose was able to go to Germany, ... Read More

Vaccines required in Brazil by Diksha
Hello everybody, When living or moving abroad, and in particular in Brazil, vaccination against certain diseases is often required to enter the country or to avoid risks. We would like to ask you a few questions to help future expats ...
I think you're pretty safe with the J&J product. The VAERS statistics thus far that show higher than normal rates of adverse reactions to Covid vaccination specifically are drawn from the higher numbers of Pfizer and Moderna vaccines that ... Read More

Since I already had and recovered from covid I'm not taking any of the vaccines personally but if I was going to take one the J&J product would be my choice. It wasn't produced using experimental mRNA technology and the company has been ... Read More

So a little clarification with regards to how you should interpret the "ICU occupancy rate" when you see numbers like 90% and 95%... Like airlines, hospitals don't want to operate with "empty seats". However an airline ... Read More

Frutillar? by watchingtheweasels
Is anyone here from Frutillar or one of the surrounding communities? Can you tell me about that area? Is Germany widely spoken in the south?
Hello...I am not entirely sure. It certainly sounds like a nice place. A long way from Santiago, which means a long way from international travel options. I have tried to get some more information on how the regions of Chile differ without much ... Read More
