The only country that speaks "Portuguese" there is Brazil and it's not the same as real Portuguese, my friend.

Just as American English isn't the same as real English?

Exactly.

Completely depends where you go and what you spend money on. If you stay in a decent hostel in Ecuador you could live on about $15 a day. A good hotel in rio would be whole different story. Read Footprint or something.

>What countries are a must visit, I speak a little Portuguese.

Don't know about the money, another Anon can probably help with that, but as far as must-visit, it goes something like this:

Argentina: Europe of South America. Nice cities. Tierra del Fuego. And some nice steak.

Uruguay: Seems a tad industrial, but it's safe, and some nice beaches. Obviously, it's winter now, so take that into account.

Chile: You got the Pacific and every climate imaginable. Some of the cities are not that great. Rural areas in the south are beautiful, but not disease-free. However, you shouldn't encounter too many problems.

Brazil: A must, if you know how to take care of yourself. The place is huge, and fricking beautiful, but the cities are as dangerous as you've been told, their Portuguese is indeed quite different, and some places are a no-go. Know what you are doing, pick a good time to go, and you'll have a blast. Just keep your eyes open.

Peru: Once again, you got the Pacific, which is really nice, some quaint coastal villages, the Andes, most of the Inca Trail, and of course, Machu Picchu, which really, is a must. If money's tight, Peru is perfect, but it's not exactly first-world and there are some places to avoid. Otherwise, quite fun.

I am a Brazilian and I give a hint.

comes to Brazil, but dont goes for Rio, there is very pretty, but also it is dangerous, and many tourists go to Rio, Brazil is much bigger than that.

we have several lovely places like Bonito - Mato Grosso do Sul, in my opinion it is the loveliest place of the world. =)

look for photos in the Internet.


*Brazil is not dangerous as they speak, only the Rio of Janeiro that it is dangerous. ^^

i'd say they're as different as US english is in relation to UK english

Well then that's... almost exactly the same. I thought you were gonna say that they're different enough that the Portuguese and Brazilians couldn't understand each other.

Well actually, Brazilians do have trouble understanding the Portuguese. Largely because of the accent though some words are different.

The Portuguese understand Brazilians fine because Brazilian soap operas are on Portuguese TV a lot so they are accustomed to the accents and different vocabulary.

All that said, the differences is vocabulary must be about exactly the same as US and UK English.

Americans can have a hard time understanding some English accents as well.
And what the bugger is a "bloke"?

That's true. I was in Barcelona once when Liverpool was there to play and thousands of their fans were in the city. I couldn't understand 50% of what they were saying.

I also traveled for a while with some Brits and I could understand everybody except the guy from Newcastle. He thought I was "taking the piss" but I wasn't. I just couldn't catch what he was saying.

Are the favelas safe?

No, not at all. Why do you want to go to the favela?
>> Anonymous
>>45601

They have guided tours in Rio of some favelas that are sanctioned by the gangs, so in that situation you probably are completely safe. But I wouldn't recommend it. Most of the people in the favelas work hard and are just trying to survive. They shouldn't be a tourist attraction.

No, the favelas isn't a good idea to travel, there is too dangerous and ...and...poor, nothing interesting for a tourist, if you want to come to Brazil, go to Bonito - MT but is too expensive, Fortaleza -CE is so beautiful and cheaper than Bonito.

And remember ^^ $2000 = R$3000.
ps: I'm brazilian. I know what i'm talking

You're not totally correct. I live in Brazil (Amerifag) and I do have an interest in seeing a favela. In fact, I have already been to a small one in Sao Vicent which is next to Santos. However, I went there with a group of Brazilian friends, one of whom has family in the favela. It was fascinating to see how it works. They have little shops, bars, schools, day care centers even, inside the favela. The conditions are terrible, of course, but it is certainly interesting to see.

Brazil/Argentina because that leaves a lot of options and is easy to organise.

Although if you want cheap, go everywhere else.
