This is a blog of our move from Bangor UK, to Manaus Brazil in 2007 with Ozzie and all our worldly posessions. How the adventure ultimately turns out, I can’t tell you, but it’ll all be in here.

Hi there!
thank you for publishing these stories about manaus. i have recently been offered a job playing in the amazonas philharmonic and am trying to figure out if it would be a good idea for me to move there or not. i visited manaus for 3 months and stayed in a hotel with all of my transportation to and from the opera house taken care of, so i know that is not the most realistic scenario to ponder as i consider moving down there.
would you be willing to correspond with me a little bit over email so i could ask your opinion on specific things that i am wondering about as i consider this move?
cheers,
rheagan
Howdy!
Just discovered your blog and hope to see new posts soon. I am particularly interested by the culture clash experience, being myself an immigrant. Say hi to the guys at Lapinha! I hope to visit soon.
Hi Deep Brazil, and thanks for your comments. As you can see, I’m struggling to keep up the blog in a timely fashion (for all sorts of reasons). Culture clash stuff will be coming soon (it never stops in reality), and I hope my tardy response doesn’t put you off coming back! Love your new site – just what I’d like to do myself some time. Well done – 11 out of 10! (Anyone interested in a great blog on Brazil should rush over to Deep Brazil’s new site – http://www.deepbrazil.com).
