We made the decision: we are going to Bangkok. Tomorrow I'm gonna flight to my hometown (Saint Louis) to spend Christmas and New Year with my parents and Desirée (my gf) is gonna stay here (Brasilia) with her family. Then in January first she is gonna flight to Saint Louis to meet me there and spend a couple days getting to know my family (she never met then since they dont live in the same city as us). We are gonna spend a good 14 days there together.
Saint Louis (São Luís in portuguese) is not a big city, but its has some nice beaches and a lot of stuff to do so its gonna be quite fun.
On January 15th we will come back to Brasilia to pack our stuff and leave to Thailand. We are gonna fly Qatar Airlines (heard they are sick good) and its gonna take more than 30 hours from the time we leave Brasilia to the time we get to Bangkok. January 24th is the big date!
I'm very excited about this, never been to Asia before and now I'm gonna live there! I already sold almost all of my stuff and just annouced my car for sale. I own a Hyundai i30, I'm asking R$47000 for it, that's about $27,000 USD. Yeah you might think thats a lot but cars here in Brazil are very very very very very expensive. I bought my car for R$58,000 (~$33,000 USD) 2 years ago, correct me if I'm wrong but a car like mine in the United States cost something like $15k lol. For those who dont know what car I'm talking about here is a pic:
Pokerwise things are OK, not great, just OK. I have some plans to achieve, but I rather not share them, maybe if I achieve them
One thing I will say is that I have been putting some volume in MTT's lately and playing less NL50.
I feeling really good about everything in general, the future looks promising!

Asia sounds like a good move for you both. You'll be able to do a lot of things on very little money (shopping/eating/alcohol/etc.), and there's plenty of neighboring countries you can visit.
New York, which was your original choice, is pretty expensive compared to Asia, but you both should visit there in the future.
