To use the age-old saying: “There is good news and there is bad news!’

The bad news is that sadly we are leaving our present ‘home’ at Rancho Pica Pau where we have been very happily housed for a long time. We are very grateful to Douglas and his team for the good natured and friendly hospitality that they showed us during our time there.

The good news is that the reason for our departure is that we are in the process of securing a new and permanent home elsewhere in Ubatuba. Once we have confirmation of the purchase (and we all now how long that can take) we’ll be letting you all know and it’ll be back to business as usual.
