Where it all began...
This is where it all began.
Foster recently moved to Rio after graduate school and wanted to start a podcast. Alexia graciously accepted to be his guinea pig. The rest is history.
The idea of Carioca Connection from the beginning was to provide high-quality Portuguese resources through natural conversations.
Season 1 proved that our idea was not so crazy after all. Although we were still learning the ins and outs of podcasts, Season 1 still remains one of our listeners’ favorites.
