Elisa & Family: thank you so much for your hospitality and kindness towards myself and my friend Juli. When plans fell apart for me and my trip to Brazil you took such great care of Juli and I can't thank you enough. It is pretty intimidating to come to a city the size of Rio by yourself, but you were so accommodating to Juli and made the solo trip so great for her. You were so easy to get in touch with, and I hope to stay in touch for many more years (and hopefully can get another trip planned to come down that actually works
