Prospects of starting a Heli Pilot career in Latin America???

Hey, crazy heli lovers!
I am studying to become a heli pilot in Estonia, Europe. I am wondering if there is any chance for me to start my career in Latin America. It's not that this is the thing I really want to do straight after graduation, it's just one of the places i would like to visit so I was thinking why not to work there?
Brazil, Peru, Mexico??? Are heli pilots in demand there? On what level is the heli-infrastructure there? Do I need a work permit? Do I need to know spanish? What level?
I would appreciate any kind of help.
PS the thing is that I am not getting all the required stuff to fly in comand right after graduation (they dont give us IFR, only on simulator).
Thanks anyway! ! !
