The Best News about Brazil

My late father got me hooked to the 80s tv show, The A Team when I was a child in Kenya. There were a few catch phrases that are well known, however the one I loved the most from Lt. Peck was “Music to my ears”. Well I thought of that phrase which is quite common I know, when I read the following in a team update from Brazil.

The Brazilian congress is analyzing the suspension of the decree signed by President Lula reinstating the visa requirement for holders of American, Australian and Canadian passports to enter Brazil. Last Thursday, the federal government reached an agreement with congressmen and postponed the start of visa requirements until April 2025. For now, passport holders from U.S., Canada and Australia can continue traveling to Brazil for tourism, without any visa.

Brazil is one of those locations we love at times, and scratch our heads at times. Through it all though, our team has a deep affinity to Brazil. For me persoanlly, and my colleagues will love this diatribe, it is about auto racing. You heard that right. It’s not about Neymar or about world cup team, it is about Ayrton Senna, a driver I idolized growing up. May 1 is Senna day, which coincides with Labour Day in Brazil. When Ayrton Senna tragically passed away in 1994 in Italy, Brazil’s actions to declare national holidays in his honor was unheard of. It said a lot about the people of Brazil and I find myself even today, amazed at the ability of the Brazilian people to share Senna’s day with their national holiday.

I was hooked on Brazil since 1994 and always felt for the people when there was either upheavel or an action the negatively impacted the country which makes what I read about the visa postponement such delightlful news. Anyone who tried obtaining a visa for Brazil over the last few months when the country was supposed to implement the new scheme, knows it was not a ready system. It wouldn’t be fair to the amazing toruism industry in Brazil to pay the price for a poorly implemented visa system. Postponing it is such weclcome news, we had to share our excitement, along with a realy cool new video.
