About Emma
Oi, hey! I’m Emma, I have dual citizenship for Brazil and the USA, and I have been living in Rio since 2011 (with a brief pause in 2012 to study in Scotland for 9 months). I am in love with this city. I really feel as if I have found myself here, and I have already lived in a handful of other countries so I guess I’ve tried out a few places :) I was alphabetized in Spanish, spoke English growing up, learned some basic French in school, and learned to write in Portuguese when I was 18. I’ll be sharing bits and pieces of my world right here. I am in love with Brazilian culture, dance, music, and art. I started a blog for fun a couple of years ago, so if you want to check out my photography and tips on Rio click on the link below! https://simbora.co/
About La Carioca
La Carioca specialty is the traditional Peruvian classic, ceviche, or raw fish marinated and cooked in lime juice - but there are plenty of other options available too. I recommend ordering the Ceviche Mix, and the Pulpo Andino. If you are feeling adventurous try the Leche de Tigre! The pisco sours are highly recommended, or the sangria jars. The desserts are also delicious, you can’t go wrong!
