On the latest episode of the Walk the World podcast, we take a fascinating stroll through one of the city’s most interesting quarters. Download from your fave podcast app, or via the link in the bio.

On this week’s episode of the Walk the World podcast, we go beyond the beach to take a virtual stroll through Rio’s most intriguing neighbourhood, Santa Teresa.
