Look here, I’ve have been to Rio several times over and Heloisa’s flat is BY FAR the most quiet place I have ever lived while here. Anywhere in Brazil, for that matter. From Nonoai in Porto Alegre to Mooca in São Paulo to Turiaçu or PPG in Copa. This place is amazingly tranquil. You can even see Christ The Redeemer from the living room. It’s amazing to look at whole relaxing near the window by day or night. I said my prayers there often. It is on the highest floor of the building. So the mountainous views are directly in your face behind the buildings. Heloisa is very friendly and hospitable. She checked in with me every two weeks or so simply to make sure I was alright or if I needed anything around the flat. Amazing host. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of Cidade Maravilhosa, this flat will definitely be the one for you because I have never been so close to everything and in the middle of all of the action, but not hear a single peep when I step inside. Do yourself a favor and choose this flat. Thanks so much for everything, Heloisa. I’ll be back much sooner than later. Many blessings. 🙏🏾
