What percentage of Brazil's annual tourists does salvador have?

Hey, Right now I am 16 and studying abroad in France for the 2012-13 school year. I am technically a Junior and plan to graduate high school in 2014. While here in France, I have made a Brazilian friend who is also studying abroad this school year. Recently we have been talking about me possibly moving into his house for a year after I graduate (2014-15) before I go to college, as it could be one of my last chances to experience life abroad before I buckle down and begin my studies to become a vet... He lives in Salvador, Brazil and has already got the OK from his parents for me to come. The problem is, I don't know what to do there. My mom doesn't want me to do another year in high school because she thinks that's a waste of time and unproductive, and I kind of agree though I would love to do it. My parents are not helping financially either, but I do have some money tucked away for this. I want to do something like volunteer work or an internship but all the programs I'm finding are expensive, include host families, and only last 12 weeks. I speak English and French but absolutely no Portuguese.... Any ideas?

Hi, I will be staying in Salvador, Bahia Brazil for 10 weeks. I am taking around 1,000.00 (1500.00 Reais) with me. I am already a fairly frugal spender, but will that be enough for me to survive if I relegate my eating outs to weekends? I don't plan on spending a lot, but for my program we will be going out on weekend expeditions. Any advice on what to buy, or how to maneuver my money will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

I'm going to study in Salvador for 4 months. Does anyone know nice local places i can visit, things I should be aware of or things I should bring with me? :)
