This hosts were really amazing and they made us felt relaxed in their home. Thiagos home has amazing view of Copacabana and Christo Redentor. Vera every morning preparing for us a tasty breakfast on the terrace ( with special guests - monkeys :)) We felt safe in the area, both at night and during the day. The place is on top of a favela, if you get tired of walking you can take mototaxi just for 3R$. This place deserves next visit!! Big kiss for Vera and thank to all familly for everything!!
