Consider grabbing a gig on teaching english to willing and paying students, Through a school, or private lessons.聽 The pay might not be that great, it's mostly cigarette and beer money, but it will improve your Portuguese Speaking Skills.聽 聽You often learn more when you teach, although this is valid for your thought subject.

Fortaleza is a destination for investors, a lot from Portugal, and then you have English Speaking People. Most of these investors tend to grativate towards Hospitality and Food & Beverage, so you will find your people there.

Also, in places like that, Non Profits and Clergy are places that you will find yourself useful, and do a lot of the networking.聽

Lastly, I would look for the local Chapter of the Rotary and Lions Club, if any.聽

And another thing you can do, even as a retiree, is to grab a real estate license through a real estate office.

Your language skills will put you on front of other expats.聽

The process is rather bureacratic and time consuming, but it is a way to find others of your ilk.

@ljrabb Do you live in or near Fortaleza? I live in Parazinho, 6 hours from Fortaleza and 20 minutes from Jericoacoara. I have been known to speak English and my wife thinks I am old. Seriously, Fortaleza is not my favorite spot, but I have to go there sometimes for the Federal Police or the Hospital. Just let me know, I will meet you there next time.
