Mandarin is an official language in Mainland China and Taiwan, but Cantonese is just a dialect in Guangdong province, Guangxi province (in some areas) and It's also an official language in Hong Kong. The Chinese people in several areas in China can understand what you say in Mandarin, in the other hand, if you choose to use Cantonese for communicating with Chinese people, you must use it in Guangdong, Guangxi or in Hong Kong only. I suggest you to learn Mandarin first, and then continue to learn Cantonese, it'll easy for your learning in Chinese.-From someone who's studying Mandarin in Thailand-
