Is the part about being able to speak Portuguese entirely true? I have a lot of close Brazilian friends who have told me that a gringo with English and Spanish would do alright.
I have had no problem using English here in Rio. In fact it has helped me - many girls and guys start talking to me just so they can practice.
I have no idea where this nonsense of you have to know Portuguese comes from. Trying to fake a few Portuguese words only turns the locals off from my experience.
