I hired Susanna on my recent trip to Rio for a days tour to include all of the things I "missed" on the other days of touring with my friends who are not as ambitious as me! She was wonderful: picked me up as agreed upon at the hotel, and after a brief update on what I had done, quickly organized our "day" before I had to be at the port for the cruise ship. I was able to check off all of my "wants" and she managed to squeeze in time for lunch at at a quaint local spot in Santa Teresa. I like the idea she was my age and a spitfire!!!! To boot, she is a native of Switzerland, so she was able to give all of the little information bits on Brazil as seen through the eyes of a transplant as well as a now Brazilian citizen. It is all about perspective sometimes! I don't regret for one minute that I made arangements with Suanne and would look her up in a flash if and when I return to Rio!!!
