Hi, I’m Miss Mell! What I love most about Rio is its incredible variety of places to explore and the stunning architecture in downtown. I enjoy visiting theaters, discovering unique cafés, and finding new spots to enjoy a delicious coffee. I know neighborhoods like Copacabana, Leblon, Ipanema, Leme, and Urca inside out, and I love sharing the city’s best beaches, restaurants, and coffee spots. Whether we’re strolling along the coast, enjoying local flavors, or exploring hidden corners of the city, I’ll make sure your experience of Rio is fun, relaxed, and full of memorable moments with a true local perspective.
