I had a marvelous week in Rio. The very warm welcome in Jorge's apartment included a delicious Caipirinha made by his mother. By the way, she is a very kind and nice person and the perhaps the world's best co-host.
Jorge also took care to introduce me to some Cariocas (the "natives" in Rio), so that I had the opportunity to make my very special Rio-experience. Sure, I had the advantage of being able to speak Portuguese, which is in the most cases the only language Brazilians speak. By time going by I felt more and more encouraged to make own contacts to other Cariocas. This worked quite well, so that after a few days I did not feel like a tourist but more like a visitor of this wonderful town Rio de Janeiro.

Conclusion: After opening the door to Jorge's flat I had a really great week in Rio.

Muito obrigado, Jorge. Eu espero, que essa não foi a ultima vez.
