All right, you've done it. You've shattered your chains. You've notified your employer where exactly he can go. The divorce documents have been submitted and the kids have also been dropped off at a foster home. No more humdrum apartments in suburbia. But what now? Just like a trapped rat, you chewed off your own leg so you can escape. Exactly where will you travel to? Precisely where to now? Jumping around from trashy motels to seedy hotels could only last for so long. So what now? If I may... Rio de Janeiro.

You actually did hear that correctly, but I'm going to announce it once more. Rio de Janeiro. The land of sunshine, surf, gorgeous people, samba, and its recent inclusion to the population, you. Of course I know what you're pondering, why did I not think of that previously? Well take it easy, you are thinking about it now. It's right there in front of your face. Now that you've got the short term alternative arranged, hotels within this exotic wonderland are simply an internet connection and a phone call away. Maybe you checked out some rentals, found a few flats. In no time at all, you'll be on the dazzling beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema, lathering yourself up with gratuitous quantities of sun block, making full use of your present accommodations.

But why don't you take it a step further? Perhaps you should place yourself in a position to be entrenched in this incredible paradise. Can't think of any reason not to, can you? So now you're on the search for apartments in Rio de Janeiro. No more rentals, no more hotels. This isn't just a holiday. You're in it for the long haul. You are now on a perpetual vacation.

But where will your pursuit of real estate point you? Will you place your roots in Ipanema? Will it be Copacabana? Choices, choices, they are by no means simple. Your pursuit of the ultimate flats and apartments must not be taken lightly. This will be your lens for viewing paradise. Don't expect your hunt for the ideal accommodations to be so easy, but if you put the time in, it should be worth the trouble.

Good job, you have made your get away. Appreciate it my friend. You are now the envy of everyone who is chained and trapped. We all can now live vicariously through your adventures. So be sure and take advantage of what your new life will be. Do it for us.
