The Inebriated Irishman's Guide To Locating Apartments In Rio De Janeiro

By Ricardo Torres


Everyone's had that sort of night. And we commonly pay for it the next day. Hopefully you haven't taken the notion to such extremes as films such as The Hangover. But, if you find yourself on vacation in a place like Rio de Janeiro and you're having a great time, well, where do you draw the line? Obviously, the more you drink, the more blurred this line becomes. So whether you have become inebriated in Copacabana or Ipanema you are left with an important question. How am I going to find my way home to my apartments or hotels?

Now of course, you don't want to be "that guy." But you're on a holiday, exactly what do you do. You didn't travel all this way to sit around in flats, rentals or apartments doing nothing and the restaurant in your hotels and accommodations can become dull fairly quickly. So what is one to do? You need to find a more interesting piece of real estate.

Well of course you need to try to make other plans. Happily enough, Ipanema and Copacabana has among the better nightlife alternatives in Rio de Janeiro. The problem is the fact that you are a lush as soon as you've had a few you can't deal with yourself. Hopefully you'll at least wake up in a place that doesn't include iron bars and it could be nice if you have most of your clothing.

Part of the key to this is actually thinking ahead. Keeping a card tethered to you with the information for your hotels, apartments, flats, rentals, or wherever will be crucial. Because let's tell the truth, you would get lost if you were sober, how are you going to expect to find your accommodations in a city like Rio de Janeiro if your slobbering drunk. Not possible, simple as that. Another essential element that could be crucial to your survival is to simply have a friend (a good friend), who is so much more responsible than you. In fact, if this crutch is pulled out from beneath you in the middle of the night you could be in for some problems. It will really rely upon how close your friendship is, or how hot the chick is that he manages to hook up with during the night. This would be an inverse relationship.

On the whole, if you just find a beach and pass out you'll eventually become sober. Probably a better place than some of the other places that you could wander into in this city. So tip back another drink! Cheers!
