Ana Chrystina’s home in Copacabana is perfect. She met us there upon our arrival and took the time to give us a tour of the apartment and the neighborhood. There was more than enough space for our group of five and we loved the location. It’s a short walk to the metro (though there are also plenty of taxis in the area), the beach, the grocery store, cafés, restaurants and shopping. We were pleasantly surprised when a farmers market popped up on Saturday in the park across the street. Rio de Janeiro is a wonderful, vibrant city and Ana Chrystina’s hospitality and beautiful home made our time in Brazil that much more memorable. Thank you!
