Flavio is absolutely incredible. As soon as we got there he was super nice and welcoming, and really felt more like a friend than a host. He showed us around to local cool block parties as it was carnival, and in general it just felt like he really cared about us having a good time. The location is great, super cute little restaurant on the corner and also super close to the lapa arches. I would 100% recommend Flavio, especially as two female travelers, he made us feel safe and at home. I know when I come back to rio, I will be hoping Flavio’s place will be available, as he is super interesting, helpful, and kind! Thanks again so much Flavio you made our time in Rio incredible!
