The neighborhood

We're a five-minute walk from the morning market — it opens at 5:30 and the best produce is gone by eight. The bakery on the corner does fresh pão until ten. The microlet stop is two minutes away; for the beach it's a twenty-minute scooter ride and we can arrange one. Sunset from the headland is a thirty-minute walk and worth every step.
