Question
hello my name's ashley and i have a question, my family would love to visit brazil since my husband's "from curitiba" what's the best place around that city for my family to stay? We would like it to be safe, family oriented, and also fun. We are also looking for arlete hilu if possible so we may find my husbands bio family if you happen to know that answer too thanks hear from you soon.
Ashley, I personally find Curitiba to be extremely boring as a tourist destination, although it has a reputation for having a good quality of life. For "fun" tourist destinations, I would recommend the beaches of Florianoplis/Santa Catarina Island, colorful Salvador, iconic Rio, or the historic Recife/Olinda/beach area.
Safety in Brazil, IMO, is a result of understanding how to conduct yourself.
I have heard of others who were adopted through this person (and some irregularities?), but unfortunately have no ideas on how to get you the information your husband would like on his birth parents.
Boa viagem.

Drawing on my personal travel experience in Brazil (more than a decade's worth), as well as time spent living in Brazil (especially Salvador, Bahia) and knowledge of the Brazilian community in the U.S., I can help with most questions concerning travel, specific destinations, paperwork for moving, marriage or business, and more. I enjoy helping people get the most from their stay in Brazil. I'd be happy to hear from you.
