The location: Recife is the capital of the sun belt coast in the northeast
of Brazil, just 8 degrees below Equator, bathed by 250+ days of sun/year (i.e.
Caribbean-like climate).  City population is around 2.5 million and the life
style is quite relaxed.  Recife is over 450 years old, has a number of
interesting architectural samples of Portuguese colonial times (esp. XVII and
XVIII centuries), and is neighbour to picturesque Olinda, whose architectural
heritage is protected by UNESCO.
