Our journey begins with a meet-up before the match to connect with fellow football enthusiasts. We'll gather at a lively square, surrounded by bustling bars, where local fans congregate to share stories and build excitement for the game. This is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the local football culture and get to know your fellow fans. From there, we'll join the throngs of passionate supporters heading to the stadium.

Whether Flamengo or Fluminense is playing, especially during a thrilling local derby, you'll be right in the heart of the action!

An introduction to ceramics through hand building techniques
You will get the opportunity to create your own ceramic piece (for example a mug, cup or bowl) using hand building techniques. We will start with a bit of theory where I'll explain the different types of clay, building, decoration and firing most commonly used in pottery. Next it's time to get your hands dirty and, with my guidance and help, make your own pot. Note that if you want your item to be finished the whole process of drying, glazing and firing usually takes about 2 months. Once your pot is ready I will get in touch for you to pick it up or I can ship it to you (shipping fees apply). Starting time of the experience is always at 9am or 2pm (the AirBnB site has been presenting a bug sometimes, displaying an hour earlier or later). If you'd prefer a different date or starting time for a group of 4 people or more send me a message and we can look at the options!

Jantar às Cegas Sabores e sensações e sentidos
Jantar às Cegas - Sabores, sensações e sentidos A gente não sabe exatamente como esse tipo de experiência começou, mas foi na Suíça em 1999, que um pastor cego, que queria promover a inclusão de pessoas com deficiência fez os maiores avanços. Por aqui, desde 2014 a Chef Mariana Pelozio promove o Jantar às Cegas. “Nosso grande objetivo é levar o participante à uma experiência individual com seus próprios sentidos. O jantar é todo guiado para que o participante mergulhe nas suas próprias memórias, na sua criatividade e intuição. A alimentação tem o poder de nos transformar de dentro pra fora. Esse é o objetivo do jantar. Muito mais que um momento divertido de “abre a boca e fecha os olhos, adivinha o que você está comendo”, o Jantar às Cegas tem o objetivo de fazer o participante mergulhar em seus próprios instintos e sentidos” explica a Chef Mariana Pelozio Em cada jantar o participante será surpreendido em como é possível aguçar e descobrir novas sensações em sabores até então escondidos. O participante só descobrirá o cardápio na hora do jantar, por isso é muito importante que no ato da compra o participante deixe claro se tem alguma restrição alimentar como: - Gravidez - Vegetariano - Alergia - Restrição religiosa Entre cada prato, intervenções sensoriais despertarão os sentidos para o próximo prato que está por vir... Harmonização com vinhos e outras bebidas

I will take you to the ticket stand (bring cash with you, cards are not accepted to purchase the entrance ticket) and will show you where to buy the van or train ticket for your descent and return.
