In Florianópolis the house is in Campeche, only five minutes by foot  to the beach in a area of detached houses. Patrícia lives with her two  children and a german shepherd in the garden. The children are 14 and  16years old and students. The younger one also plays videogames while  the older one works. Patrícia is event organizer but she doesn't like  the company where she is working. She is 45 years-old and not long ago  she did her first solo trip to Patagonia. Her car is a Fiat. The house  has two floors, with a open area on the ground floor with the dining  room, living room, kitchen and a office in one of the corners. On the  first floor, after climbing a cement staircase without handrail, there  is Patrícia's room, the children room with two single beds and a  bathroom. We sleep in the room of Vitor and Pedro and we use a bathroom  on the ground floor.  Again, hot water only in the showers. The kids  sleep in the living room and use the bathroom upstairs.
There are  few kitchen utensils and only a small frying pan where we prepare the  onions and potatoes for the "bacalhau com natas". The gas stove runs out  of gas while we cook, Sunday night. A short phone call and in less than  ten minutes there is a motorbike arriving with a new bottle of gas. But  in Brazil we never buy an extra bottle, in case.
Patrícia lends  us two very shaky bicycles we use only once to go to the supermarket.  She take us to visit semi-desert beaches like Matador or Lagoinha de  Leste.
