Thanks for the post. What do you mean "open jaw"..???

You mean fly to Brazil....and move around the continent and then return to Brazil before the flight back home??

an open jaw ticket flies into one location and leaves out of another, how you cover the distance between the two destination is up to you - by surface, another flight or cruise etc.

If your purpose is just to get quick impressions of each country...and save for a more intensive visit in the future...than 10 days could work. I do such things all the time.

Depends on your purpose. If you have a long agenda of things to do, it might not work. But if you are like me, just exploring and trying to get a sense of the people and the place, than it would work.
