        It’s still much better than Chinese tourists speaking with a European Portuguese accent, don’t you think?

  • Alina Mason

    Very valuable tips! The most important is the language one — so many people still think that Spanish is spoken in Brazil!

    • Lidi Albuquerque

      Thank you Alina! It’s hard to believe some people still think the language spoken in Brazil is Spanish!

        It’s still much better than Chinese tourists speaking with a European Portuguese accent, don’t you think? :)

        • Lidi Albuquerque

          hahaha you have a point FalskDanser! That would be at least unusual and surprising! I would like see a Chinese speaking European Portuguese! ;)

    These are wonderfully simple tips for first time – or repeat – visitors to Brazil to follow to get the most out of their stay. I’ve visited Rio de Janeiro and Belo Horizonte, but need to go back to try salgadinhos, which I only just learned about ! Brazilian language, food, culture, history, geography and people have changed my life, and are sure to change yours too with the help of these ingenious tips.

    • Lidi Albuquerque

      Muito obrigada! Thank you very much for your kind comment Hamilcar! I am happy you liked the tips, and found them useful. I can’t believe you haven’t try salgadinhos yet! Yo have too. There are some restaurants in NY where you can find them. If you want I can recommend you some places!

    Great tips Lidi! They are very useful and funny! ) I do recommend “salgadinhos” and some of Portuguese classes to visitors before of the first time in Brazil. They could help a lot to understand better this beautiful country!
