About Curitiba

Very nice and underrated city. Many parks, and things to do. The best neighborhoods are Centro (near Shopping Estacao) and Batel (near Praca Japao). You can do everything on foot. Everything is cheap by European standards. The nightlife is very good, Latin America standard. Women are beautiful. Security is okay in these neighborhoods, but be aware. English speaking is only possible with young people or some adults. The weather is good and comfortable in the fall. One of my favorite cities in Brazil, I recommend it.
