  Description

  I have lived in Brazil for more than 20 years and I continue to enjoy this country very much, both the beach and the interior. Books are important companions, besides painting, hiking, animals. Our house in the country is a place where I can return again and again. This place of retreat, far from the traffic and the commotion of civilization, I would like to share with other people.

  Autres infos...

  You will be in a very quiet, secluded place. There is no public transportation. The nearest small town is 7km away and the nearest bigger town is about 25 km away. ( earth road). However, there are people in the neighborhood that you can go with, though you will have to be somewhat felxible. If you need a lot of contact, it is not the right place for you. But if you want to retreat a bit, love nature and animals it is the right place.

  Since we live in a house with solar energy, we have no refrigerator, no washing machine and everyone contributes to be sparing with the available energy.
