Sigh… here’s to memories of hot days and spontaneity in Brazil! Long strolls on the beach, ocean sounds, eating pastel on the famed mosaic pavements of Copacabana, sipping espresso in Ipanema cafes, and perusing chic boutiques in hopping Leblon – these distant vignettes still make me happy!
This much goes without saying, life as a low-key Carioca (particularly when you are a tourista Carioca!) is infinitely simpler and less fettered than life as a working-gal Manhattanite!

Our lovely hostess of Brigite's on Rua Dias Fereira. To me, she captures the beauty and essence of Rio!
