Rio de Janeiro is getting more Parisian with each passing day. By that we don’t mean it is losing its unique “carioca” vibe to be replaced by an "ooh la la!" feel. It’s the other way round actually, as more French people embrace Rio, its easy going way of life, and make it their home and base.

Take Pauline Grosso, for example. A native of Brittany, France, she fell in love at first sight with the Santa Teresa quarter of Rio, the city’s most bohemian and cosmopolitan quarter, and decided to make it her home.

She opened a cultural centre that now also doubles as a special place to stay with 9 rooms. Welcome to the Casa da Gente – the peoples home.

The idea behind it is great. It is for the traveller that seeks “not to be a simple tourist”. It is a place where guests can merge into the landscape, know the city from the inside and experience an affectionate welcome. Unusual for its location, the Casa da Gente enjoys at the same time, the tranquility of Santa Teresa, the Bohemia of Lapa and the energy of downtown Rio.

The house is bright, decorated with unique vintage furniture and creative works from neighborhood artists. Its hanging garden overlaps the roofs and streets of the city center and has a breathtaking view.

Breakfast is balanced and natural, served with whole wheat bread, homemade yogurt, fresh juices and some other regional delis. Indeed, the Casa da Gente is seriously into ecological solutions, from the capture of rain water, to the composting of organic waste and showers heated by solar panels.

One of the great things about Pauline Grosso and the Casa da Gente is that her love for Rio is infectious. She provides the best tips with you so that you can discover the city in a practical, safe and easy way.

So, enjoy Rio de Janeiro, enjoy the company of the people of this special house! As the Casa da Gente itself states what you get is “An alternative and innovative space where culture, economic solidarity and ecology come together”.

Beyond the post-card of Rio

Pauline Grosso, founder of the Casa da Gente and guide of tourism, will help you to discover the enchantments of Rio De Janeiro.

She takes the visitors (housed with us or not) to, not only, the most visited and well known places in Rio de Janeiro (Sugar Loaf, Corcovado...), but also to special places and neighborhoods like the Historic Center, Lapa, Santa Teresa, Morro da Conceição, Barra de Guaratiba...with possible visits to artists studios and workshops, popular cooperatives, social projects and shanty towns.

She also works in partnership with specialized guides to provide specific visits as favela tour by foot, for example.

Solidarity Tourism and Community

The Casa da Gente strongly believes that tourism can be a force for positive change and social inclusion. It can arrange custom tours for individuals and small groups with a focus on tourism and community solidarity.

The idea behind this is to use tourism as a way of recognizing and learning from the differences in regions and ethnicities.
