I had a great week staying with Isabel in her lovely apartment in Copacabana. She was very helpful because my flight arrived quite late in the evening but she was waiting for me. I am sorry I couldn't speak Portugese so we were not able to chat. The room is great and has a private shower room and a TV. Everything was so clean and comfortable Isabel made me feel really at home so this was a chance for me to relax as well as carry out the bit of business I had to do.
