If you think you have to be in Italy to eat the creamiest and tastiest gelato of all times, think again. My favorite is the mix of avocado and neromomo (a very dark chocolate delight).

You have to stop here and try açaí (say "ah-sah-EE", though, so that you don't look like a tourist). Then stop again another day to have any other fresh juice. Tangerine, pineapple, boysenberry.......

My favorite tourist spot in Rio. You will ride the tram up 2 mountain (Morro da Urca and Pão-de-Açúcar). There are little marmosets, a little trail you can hike and the most stunning views of the city

One of the best beaches of Rio, great for surfing. Access is tough if you're not driving, and, if you are, you should get here before 9am, in order to park. Worth it!!
