Just as I became fluent in asking these questions in Spanish, everything turns Portuguese! Here be the folk I acquainted in the 5th largest country in the world (with more people than all the other nations in South America combined), the enormous land mass that is Brazil. As usual, travelers have country codes and locals get special thanks for indulging my English fetish.
