Fany’s place was absolutely perfect! The location was a few blocks from copacabana beach, which meant it felt safe and comfortable, and also quieter than if it had been right on the beach.
Fany is a perfect host, from sharing meals and wine, to local tips and maps. Even when my flight was delayed, she waited up to welcome me.
As a solo female traveller, I wasn’t sure what to expect about travelling to Rio during carnivale and Fany’s place was a great reprieve to come in from the craziness outside.
I can’t wait to be back to Rio and hopefully, stay here again!
