We are in a very central location in Rio. Basically every tourist attraction is about 10 minutes from our apartment. Looking towards the end of our street you will see the Sugar Loaf. It is a quiet residential area, the apartment complex is very safe, we have 24X7 security and our neighbors are mostly families. The area is central, but surrounded by a nice green mountain (no shantytowns around), where we sometimes can see little monkeys. There is a larger pool, a sauna, a small gym and a kid's playground in the first floor of the building. The subway is two blocks from our street; there are bakeries, pharmacies, supermarkets and a large shopping mall within a couple of blocks. There is also a 24 hour taxi stop right in front of the appartment. Something about ourselves

We are a family of four. My husband José is 46 and a TV Sports Journalist and I am 44 and work as a Translator. We love Arts, Sports and Cultural Activities in general. We have two children, a boy who is 15 and loves surfing, soccer and all sorts of sports and games and a girl who is 9 and enjoys drawing, music and dancing. My husband and I always loved travelling and now we enjoy it even more with our kids. The kids are well behaved and used to travelling. My husband and I speak English, French, Portuguese and some Spanish. Both kids are learning English. He had one very nice exchange with a couple in San Diego, 2009, and another one in Paris in 2010. Both were great experiences. ![]()
