Well, things like food and accommodation are considerably cheaper. But one tends to go out more at night and travel in Brazil so you end up spending quite a bit here, but only because your doing it more.

Make sure your bank at your home country doesn't charge you a heavy transaction fee for cash withdrawals from brazilian ATMs. It varies from bank to bank.

Actually, if you have a more powerful currency, it is a plus. Moreover, you can buy more anyway for the real. Things are already cheaper and then if you have more purchasing-power , even better.
