Never expected so much interest in Peruibe for Mobile Websites. But then.. we do have a nice offer to start with .. specially for those businesses without a website!

We got a Hotel, Restaurant, Internet cafe, Library and we are just closing with animal clinic and hairdresser. Check out: www.peruibe.mobi or the mobile site guia.peruibe.mobi for more details!!

At the same time we adding “Business Blogs” in Sao Paulo. Adding a “Clinica Reumatologica” and Dentist with two dental clinics! All our customers achieved excellent results and first page positions in Google Search!

I just got across a nice video about Peruibe, Beach resort. It is worthwhile to watch!

I put it on the Peruibe Mobile blog to watch: Video de Peruibe

We have been working hard, but yesterday we launched Peruibe Mobi.

Making final preparations this weekend and we start marketing “Mobile Websites” next week.

Ready for customers to use for the “Peruibe Alive” period starting in December.

The beach will be a collection of mobile phone users! All chatting, texting and emailing while sun bathing….

Just check it out www.lotcon.mobi or www.peruibe.mobi

Yes, Peruibe Beach Town is in between Dead and Alive!

Peruibe is browsing with activity to get ready for the start of the Christmas, New Year and Summer holidays.

My favored Quiosque Farao is getting a face lift again. Looks so much better (and cleaner…), even more enjoyable to have a drink and snack there.

New stores are popping up, Compre Bem converted into Extra, looking somewhat nicer at the cost of a increased shopping basket. The downtown placa should have gone through its facelift.

Miguelitos Bar e Cozinha Mexicana is becoming louder every day. More crowd and louder life music. They might have a chance to survive beyond this holiday season, something the three previous owners didn’t succeed in. Great tequila!

The Beach is already getting a small crowd during the weekdays… so we are getting ready too…

Yes, that’s right, the first Mexican bar and restaurant just opened on our corner!!! Two owners of the Cachaçaria (casha-sa-ria) and restaurant could not survive. So, the third owner in one year thinks he can turn Peruibe into a liking for Mexican food and drinks. I don’t think the drinks will be a problem, just wondering about the food. But with 4 years of living in Mexico I probably can taste how close Miguelitos, bar e comida will be to Mexican drinks and food.. We have something to do this weekend….

As mentioned in posts before, I will describe the services, products, sports and entertainment I have available in walking distance. Today the first post.

I never thought how convenient it is to live almost next to a veterinarian. We have two pets who traveled with us to different countries. Fluffel, our Maltese is now almost 10 years old. He has a very impressive International Vaccination Passport (4 countries). Moorlie, our small cat, six years old, managed also 4 international vaccinations.

Fluffel needs a wash and trim regular. It is so convenient to just walk to ClinVet ever second Monday morning for a wash and trim. He almost can do it on its own! They will do also the fleas and worm treatment as necessary. I don’t have to worry about, they keep track when its needs to be done.

ClinVet has full services and a friendly staff. ClinVet is located at Av. Padre Anchieta, 4170 (Phone 2455-4525)

Now, that is maybe giving the wrong impression. But from a lively beach town in spring and summer months, it is almost a dead town now, just the locals… like me. Even my favored “Quiosque Faroa” is closed most days during the week. Now I have to bring my own drinks and sit on an empty terrace. The pizza place on the corner shut down, so now I have to order pizza by phone (not as good as hot steaming pizza direct from the oven…). Many other stores just closed down until the start of next season. You might not have noticed it, but this blog took a tour around the world. It changed location of its hosting several times. That is also the reason why I posted so little. We have one more move scheduled in the weeks to come. Then I will tell about how convenient living is in the Nova Peruibe area. Almost all you need is in a few hundreds meters walk… Can do without a car… I even decided I don’t need a bike… So we explore… (as soon we are on my new hosting service).

“Carnaval” is coming up! This will be my first carnival in Peruibe. I have been in Brazil during carnival several times, most of the times in front of the TV. I did see some parade’s in Sao Paulo and Campinas a lifetime ago. Of course none as exciting as the one in Rio. But Peruibe, this small little beach town, is famous for its “Carnaval” weekend. The town will be at full capacity! Likely more then on New Years Eve. It certainly will be an “hot” weekend, 38C expected! Deep-freezing the beer! I promise, I will get some pictures!

Peruibe is famous for its New Year celebration. Fireworks and late night entertainment. We will find out and report next year! Downtown got crowded early in the evening, but we decided to stay home. We know our dog and cat are not happy with fireworks. We had that experience celebrating New Years Eve in Sao Paulo. But Peruibe should be worse (and it was, seems like all neighbors targeted our house). The fun started around 22:00 hours until early morning. We had a small break 10 minutes before midnight. A five minutes heavy shower moved most activity indoors around us (and likely difficult to light fireworks on the beach). It sounded surreal! But only for 10 minutes…. So fluffel (our dog) on my lap, Mohrlie (the cat) hiding in the clothing cabinet, and me watching Elvis and Edith Piaf movies… was our New Years Eve. I promise more action next year…

In the street where we live only a few houses are permanently occupied. Likely not more then 10%. Now when there is a sunny weekend it might goes up to 20% and on a long weekend it might reach 35%.

Believe it or not, the day after Christmas Peruibe starts filling itself with house owners, family, friends and holiday makers. Over 90% of the house in my street are now fully occupied. Some places are filled with 20+ people.

So for the next month or so small business will be doing great. This morning the line for getting fresh bread rolls was about 35 people, a 20 minutes wait! The small little vegetable store needed to install a second check-out. The whole family is now attending. The biggest grocery store is now open 24 hours and have free home delivery. The smell of barbecue starts at noon to midnight!

YES, PERUIBE is ALIVE !!
