A British journalist who went missing in Brazil has been found after four months in a hostel in Sao Paulo.
Charlotte Alice Peet, who was working for Al Jazeera and British news outlets, was found alive on Monday after going missing in February.
Police said she had ‘expressed her desire not to have contact with her family’, and had flown out to South America without telling them.
The 32-year-old had been seen boarding a bus from Sao Paulo to Rio de Janeiro, and was also spotted at a bar Copacabana Beach.
She was last heard from after messaging a friend saying she was preparing to travel to Rio and was looking for somewhere to stay.
