Nola is right, under the table. No working visa.
But sure enough you can with Spanish, English and some Portuguese, which you will for sure improve staying for a while.
There are resorts that need English speaking people all over, Buzios, RJ, Trancoso BA, Arraial da Ajuda BA, Jericoacoara CE, Porto das Galinhas PE, and several others.

there are 350 b&bs there, most would employ you with no documents.

Just remember that pay scales are different. You would earn about fifteen US dollars a day - yes, a day, for this type of work. And there are thousands of local boys and girls who want to do the same. Unlikely you will be offered lodging in exchange. Dont mean to dissuade you but its better you know the reality before you start out.

Are you serious? Millions of Brasilians leave Brasil to work crappy jobs in the US and Suriname, what makes you think you will find one in Brasil?

sure .. If you can get paid under the table. If not .. then you will need a working visa.
good luck
