Commercial contacts & to participate in the website

We were born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where we lived until our middle 30's. After some international trips, including some Pacific Islands, Australia and New Zealand, we decided that it was time for a life change, mainly looking for the future of our kids. Rio de Janeiro was still very beautiful but very hard to live due some degree of violence and lack of the authorities about the fact.  We left Rio and lived for a while in the Northeast area of Brazil in a city called Natal, and it was very good for a certain period of time.(at least beautiful without violence).

Once returning from a tourism trip in New Zealand, we read in a newspaper an advertisement saying: "New Zealand is accepting application from qualified Immigrants. Must have university degrees and work experience to help the country to grow". We kept the periodical in a drawer, and 6 months later after a violent incident in Rio with an assault with gun on our heads and the kids on the back seat of the car, we decided that enough is enough. We applied to migrate to New Zealand in the General Skills category, and one year later we were on our way.

We lived  7 years in Mt Maunganui on the North Island of New Zealand and got the Kiwi citizenship. It was an incredible experience. In the beginning we looked like aliens, because everything was so different from our culture. Also, it  was very hard to find any other Brazilians living there. But with time and help of our great kiwi friends, things got better and we settled happily to the place. We loved New Zealand not only for the natural beauty, but also for the people as well. Earn money was harder than in Brazil, anyway, we had our living made with a Import and distribution business we started there. It was a happy period in our lives, watching our kids grow without stress. But there was something missing... the summers were short and most of the time we had to wear something warm (not tropical as Brazil).

During some holidays in Australia, we've found the climate on the Gold Coast more alike with the one we use to have, besides me and my son could surf almost every day together during the vacations, and without wetsuit. When we returned to New Zealand, we decided to move and try live in Australia for a while.

We have been living in Australia since 1999, and  it was easier to settle with the previous cultural knowledge and cultural experience we acquired in New Zealand. The Gold Coast climate suits us very well, and the fact the Australian population is bigger than New Zealand's, it opened more professional opportunities for us. It is very hard to compare the two countries, because each one has their own character and ways to think and act. In our opinion there is not a best, one complements the other. Today we are very proud to be Aussies, Kiwis, and Brazilians at the same level.

Today our kids are grown up and doing things by themselves so now we do what we love the most, which is travel and make new friends around Australia and the world. This website is a collection of all the experiences we had along these almost 15 years, and it became a point to us to share it with others. At the same time, promoting Australia and New Zealand  which became like a father and mother for us, is our professional priority. Due our free time, we travel Australia, new Zealand and Pacific Island for fun, at the same time we collect information to place in portaloceania.com. Also, we dedicate to some of ours hobbies which are snorkeling, Kite aerial photography with a camera suspended by a kite, and active volcanoes exploration. The best part of these trips is without any doubt the people we met on the way. Our plans for the future is to change our Campervan into a Motorhome, and join the "Grey Nomads" (people after 50s that sells their homes and travel indefinitely around Australia). Of course Portal Oceania is in our travel plans, and probably we will be publishing it by satellite, from anywhere in Australia, New Zealand  or Oceania,  of course with the help of god.
