Daniel, a German in his mid-20s, has found not just a place to live in Rocinha, but a true home — thanks to a community that welcomed him with open arms from day one. When he’s not working as a web designer, you’ll find him enjoying football, a good barbecue, and days at the beach.

Adson is Brazilian, in his early 30s, a true cria da comunidade and deeply rooted in Rocinha. As an experienced local guide, he knows every alley, viewpoint, and hidden corner — and he’ll take you on a tour that brings real stories, culture, and everyday life to the surface, with respect and authenticity.
