Unfortunately Camilla let me know she had to get a new phone so communicating with her became difficult. However, leading up the stay, Camilla answered all my inquiries. And once she got her phone back, we were able to communicate well.
Camilla’s place isn’t a 5-Star hotel but the accommodations exceeded what I paid for it. I like to think I’m simple and only need a bed to sleep and a place to store my luggage when I travel. And Camilla’s placed checked those boxes. When I got there, Tia Carla (Camilla’s mom) brought enthusiasm and showed care. I unfortunately knew little Portuguese and communication was rough but as time went on, I’d like to think that I “Entendido” her better. She even made me a meal since I got there around an early dinner time. And it was clutch since I didn’t have lunch that day.
Camilla and Tia Carla were great hosts the weekend I was there and helped create a little home away from home for me.
Obrigada Camilla e Carla pela estadia!
