Anywho...i went travelling last year to central/south america and bought local sim cards - fantastic option and worked really well. however, during my time there i had a very serious problem (wont go into details) and suffice to say my family were very worried. i agreed to take a global sim on all future travels to ensure i was always contactable to keep their nerves at ease.
i basically need a global sim which operates in all the south america countries (and as many others as possible) and offers free received calls. i dont intend on making outgoing calls/data, just simply for receiving.
i found travelsim - TravelSIM - cheap international calls in 192 countries
but doesnt offer free calls to Brazil, is there anything better? any suggestions/warnings?
many thanks,

If you've investigated international SIMs and don't find a SIM that gives you free incoming calls in Brazil it may mean that it doesn't exist. Your alternative may then be to get an international SIM which provides service but not free incoming or get a local SIM in each country and just keep those people who need to know what your number is either by calling them, sending them a text message or an email with your current number.
