Brazil

Did you purchase your airline pass in your country? Was the language a great barrier, are there a lot of english speaking people? What types of food do you recommend? Did you make hotel reservations prior to going?

Re: Brazil

>Did you purchase your airline pass in your country?




I bought the airline pass in my country, it’s impossible to buy in Brazil, is available only to foreigners and Brazilians residing abroad holding a round trip ticket to Brazil.




>Was the language a great barrier, are there a lot of english speaking people?




there aren’t a lot of english speaking people but we didn’t have great problem.




>What types of food do you recommend?




As I wrote on my Brazil info page:


Churrasco: barbecued meat on the spits, EXCELLENT ,


the national dish: the feijoada, soup of beans and meat,


pan de queijo: sandwiches with a I mix of cheese,


a cheese of which I don't remember the name cooked to the grate on skewers,


the fruit juices, very good.




Did you make hotel reservations prior to going?




Yes, first of all because was a “special” trip with my family, even because we moved a lot across the country in a few time and we did not want to loose time in searching the accommodation. If you have time and don’t travel in peak season I think there aren’t problem in finding accommodations.




Have a good trip
