Brazil's countryside is pretty sweet. The issue is that I don't think you can get by with only English, so learning Portuguese would be a must for a non-native.

You can eat well, stuff is generally far, you can't get anything you want without going to the city, but as far the cost of living goes, it's pretty good. But of course, you can only do this if you can somehow find a source of income which allows you to, as there's almost no opportunity there to make money and I believe internet access is going to suck a bit.

I don't live in Brazil anymore, but would love to move there when I'm old, or when I'm tired of Europe.

I know a few Europeans which traveled there and ended up loving the place, going there, getting married and living forever. The weather really helps and it's a experience much different from living in a city in Europe. But I guess some people would absolutely hate it, if they expect that there'll be a city and everything to work for them.

I like doing stuff by myself, so I like that environment. Some people like to get their houses cleaned and their lunch made.
