Getting raw Lebanese Kibbeh, warm bread and a fresh Mozzarella and Tomato salad at your door in 15 minutes. Without ever dialing a phone number.

Not even needing your credit card or cash on delivery.

Just type web address, click what you want, enter address and PayPal details and wait.

I’m eating hamburger helper. Because I can only afford to live in the 90s :(

I actually had to pay at the door, the courier guy on a moped had a credit card machine.

How difficult is it for non-portuguese speakers to get by in Brazil? Would Spanish, German, Italian be well received?

I mean, it really depends, I live in the most populous city in the southern hemisphere. São Paulo looks like this, most places you actually want to go to have english menus and people are fine with English and Spanish.

But there are places like this, actually, aside from Rio and some other capitals, most of Brazil looks like this:

In places like this, I imagine it is very difficult to get by being a non-portuguese speaker.

Here some places do credit card over the Internet, some at the door, they will also accept cash at the door but more and more are accepting Paypal for convenience.

It’s good, but sometimes it’s just too convenient.

Gotcha. How receptive of outsiders are most middle class Brazilians? I have only interacted with Brazilians when I lived in Japan, and they were awesome welcoming people much like I typically expect of latinos. (Are Brazilians considered Latino?)

I think either very receptive or they will try to swindle or trick you in some way.
