Hi! I am a teacher and researcher of History and History of Art. I host since 2018 and I believe that each stay must be unique, because every guest is too. Thus, I try to make the stays the best possible, meeting the needs of each guest. For me, hosting is not just about providing a service, but also about making new friends and learning from others. I am available to help and answer any questions. Welcome!
Neighborhood located in the south zone of the city, near the Sugar Loaf, Copacabana, Ipanema and Lapa. There are plenty of transport options, markets, restaurants, bars, drugstores, malls, squares, hospitals and general commerce.
