Yesterday we went to visit the popular Dois Irmãos thanks to the well organized RioLIVE! events. We started off taking a moto-taxi through the favela to reach the hiking trail, a memorable experience I’ll never forget. Although the hike is short it’s well worth the ambiance of trekking through what feels like a forest. Once the peak is reached you are blessed with a unique breathtaking view of Rio that makes you want to spend the whole afternoon up there. The whole experience is one not to be forgotten and should be on any tourists radar. Additionally, the RioLIVE! aspect enables us to use recently learned vocabulary and grammar into real life experiences such as this beautiful hike. I’m very grateful that I chose Rio & Learn to not only learn Portuguese but also to learn this amazing city.
Thanks, guys!

The first round was good the second round was even better. We said so because everybody who was on this RioLIVE! had already been to Morro Dois Irmãos. Besides the views, the hike and the experience of knowing a bit more of a favela which is on the way to hike, we could go up the trail faster than the last time, having more time to enjoy and practice our Portuguese! This second round was even better for sure! 🙂
