I would imagine that you would pay a fortune in commission to get Brazilian currency here: no point.

Did you really mean that you are going to Natal? That used to be in South Africa.

Yes Voyager2002, Natal is in Brazil. I can get Brazilian reals here commission free but I've been told to get them over there, as the rate of exchange will be better. Still looking for tips in Brazil though.
