learn Brazilian (Portuguese)

I live in the Bay Area, and have not been able to find ANYWHERE to learn or practice Brazilian Portuguese. The best I have found so far, are the Pimsleur Cd’s. I put them on my Ipod and listen on the way to work. It is a great program, but I’d learn faster if I had someone to converse with. That way I would learn to communicate in the language, instead of just learning and memorizing words and phrases…
