The Question
Public Question Asked by Andy about Florianopolis
Hi, I'm coming to Florianopolis on 28th of December. Any recommendations for accommodation for couple months? I looked all over the web but couldn't find anything suitable. I would probably need to stay in a hostel/hotel for first couple days and have a look around.

Hi Andy,
I live in Curitiba, but love Floripa. Last year some friends stayed at:www.pousadacolinasdalagoa.com.br, but just for some days. For longer time it is better to rent a room or find a hostel. I have some friends and relatives there; try to contact my friend Lia(liabenthien@hotmail.com), she will be happy to help you.
If you need more info also about other beaches in SC or about my city, Curitiba(it worths to visit), feel free to contact me at: asusy70@hotmail.com.

Hey , Andy!
I have two aunts in FLoripa, I really like it there. but I think you should consider coming to the north part of the state where I live, we have lots of sightseeing places and the neighbor city is called San Francisco do sul, it is also an island and we have a lot of beaches up here. if you wanna know more about it e-mail or something! cya !

Thanks Dyegho, I plan to stay in Floripa for longer so I will do some trips from there. Happy Holidays!

Sorry Andy, but I live in São Paulo, it's 800 km from Floripa, but I know there and it's really beautiful.
