Ola Tom

Tudo bem?

Good luck in your apartment search in Rio. I would try www.gringoes.com

For example, http://www.gringoes.com/forum/search_results_posts.asp?SearchID=20081229082904&KW=renting rio

I am no Rio fan (but it is stunning) or expert, but I would always rent on the ground when you are there, usually through the newspapers and the telephone. Ask at a newsstand which newspaper has the best classificados imoveis, and when your looking through them you want apartamentos para alugar, maybe temporada as it is only six months. There are a lot of expensive accomodation in a big tourist city like Rio, but you can get a good deal if you go through the newspapers and keep looking.

In Rio I think the newspaper O Globo which has the most classificados on a Sunday.

Rio is divided into Zona Norte and Zona Sul, Zona Sul is considered the safe one. Posting a question on gringoes.com is your best plan for different areas.

For example purposes: http://www.zap.com.br/imoveis/resultado-busca-imoveis.aspx

Remember Carnival starts Friday Feb. 20th so it will be a busy month. Watch does Cariocas, this is a city whose people are proud of partying, not working.

as cariocas OPA!!!

Hi Tom,

Why you have to leave Colombia? What happened? Anyway, I lived in Rio for one year, in Copacabana, I am leaving Rio at the end of this month to go to live in Colombia. If you want, I can hook you up with the owner of my apartment in Copacabana. VERY safe, nice, clean, near a 24 hour supermarket and 24 hour pharmacy and near the beach (one block) you can see the beach from the apart. window. I am also selling my aircon and a sofa bed, so if you are interested to buy them, I can leave them in the place.

Let me know !
