Footloose Lemon Juice is an educational website that encourages you to discover Brazil and move abroad. Our honesty equals your sanity, so you’ll learn about our failures and successes along the way. We reveal the everyday things from breakdowns navigating the Italian postal system to overcoming homesickness.
Our content veers away from the mundane, bringing you curated Brazilian playlists for roaming the supermarket and short histories of the Brazilian Wild West. Learn about how to become an Airbnb host while you travel the world and our low-effort ways to learn a second language. Find one of a kind guides on less-known destinations in Brazil and a library of resources for learning Portuguese.
