Staying at Jaline's apartment was a wonderful experience. Jaline and her partner are extremely generous, nice, and friendly. I felt like a family member, which was very important for me as I was a solo female traveler. I felt very safe and cared for. Not only did they give me great tips to move around Rio, but also they were extremely kind in always offering snacks and engaging in interesting conversations. My best memories of Rio are eating a breakfast tapioca and drinking fresh coconut water from their beautiful balcony!
