Achei que falava português - até chegar em Portugal

I thought I'd arrive in Portugal and speak normally—because I already spoke Portuguese. I was wrong. European Portuguese is another language within the same language. Different vocabulary, different accent, different rhythm—and pitfalls that nobody warns you about before you go. In this video, I share real-life situations I experienced trying to communicate here in Porto Alegre: → Words that mean completely different things (some quite embarrassing) → Why the European accent is so difficult to understand at first → What I decided to adapt—and what I decided to keep → Why the Brazilian accent here sometimes opens more doors than it closes This channel documents the real life of a Brazilian living in Porto—with everything it entails, including the funny parts.
