I'm interested in Macau because they speak Portuguese there. How similar is it to Brazilian Portuguese?

Actually not that many locals still speak Portuguese though most of the signs and buses have Portuguese as well as Chinese. You definitely could not get by there with Portuguese in terms of talking to locals.
I've never partied in Macau but my general impression is that it's like Vegas without the tens of thousands of sluts who drive from CA for the wknd. So it's basically middle age men looking for hookers, from what I hear at least. Prostitution is HUGE there.
I was walking in one of the biggest casinos into the food court area and all of a sudden I saw a really hot girl in a mini skirt walking down the hall. I immediately thought she must be going to a club, but then 3 feet after her, I saw another hot girl in a miniskirt. Turns out it was a hooker line up. They just walk up and down this hallway and the Chinese men look at them on the sidelines. If they like anyone they negotiate a price and take them to their hotel.
Now imagine that happening at the Wynn or MGM Grand in Vegas.

Prostittution is huge all over China, seen the ladies with the numbers on them yet? Macau doesn't have free drinks or black jack, so before everyone runs there, know it set up for Chinese not westerners.

Am sitting in rural China as I type this. Prostitution is not "huge" all over China. It's actually quite difficult to find, and they don't like to serve Western customers that much.

According to Wikipedia Macau has the highest ratio of women to men of anywhere in the world. I thought you guys would be slaying it there.
