Azure Property International – exceptional service, exceptional resorts

The location:

Brazil is a beautiful country that is full of natural resources, raw materials and a growing economy with projected GDP growth of 4.4% until 2012.

PriceWaterhouseCoopers has predicted that the E7 countries of Brazil, China, India, Russia, Indonesia, Mexico and Turkey will overtake the G7 group of rich nations (Canada, Italy, Germany, Japan, USA, UK and France) by 2050.

To support this growing economy, the Brazilian government is investing heavily in infrastructure. This will include roads, housing and a new airport which is due to open in 2010 in Natal. This airport will be the largest in South America and will greatly improve accessibility to the region from the rest of the world.

With the influx of investment and tourism, English is becoming more widely spoken. However, Brazil has managed to maintain its historical culture and encourages the use of the official language – Portuguese. The growth in tourism is expected to escalate with the arrival of the World Cup Football tournament in 2014.

As Brazil embraces diversity with a great mix of welcoming people, it is a wonderful place to be. The diversity of people can be seen to influence the choice in food and culture, as there is a large variety of fresh fruit, vegetables and meat; with fresh fish and fruit being Brazil's largest exports. Alongside the distinctive culture and people, the tropical climate can be seen to be an additional benefit.

Emerging as one of Brazil's most popular cities, Natal lives up to its name of 'the city of sun' averaging 300 days of sunshine each year, with an average of 24–26°C all year round. It is also renowned as the safest and cleanest city in Brazil.
