+ We arrived in the island´s biggest city Florianoplis in the morning and took directly a bus to a fishermen´s village "Barra de Lagoa". We found the best hostel ever! The owner insisted that it wasn´t a hostel, but his house. And indeed, he lived their and made us feel at home too. The house was with plenty other backpackers from all over the world (mainly Australians) and we were all cooking together, renting cars to drive around the island, taking a boat ride, going to the beach surfing or just sunbathing, suffered endless speeches about Brasil´s or Southamerica´s history from owner (as he loved to talk) and of course, we had too many Caipirinhas together... It was very hard to leave the place... One essential part of the house was Serginho, the cook & barman (well, he was actually still constructing the bar, but made the best fruit cocktails) for the evenings, who had such a positive energy that everyone was just happy around him.
