Dear Kathryn,

I am in Salvador!

Looking forward to seeing you. Be prepared to have your senses jangled in every sense of the word - mostly good and always amazing.

Our house is amazing. We are giving up the predictable security and quiet of a hotel for character, and HOW. Our house in the historical district of Salvador is owned by an American from Hollywood. He traded in a life of consumerism for the primal life of Salvador, beginning four years ago. He bought the house for $30,000 and is getting offers now for $300,000. It is 400 years old, beautiful…Brazilian red wood gleaming on the floors and on the soaring ceilings. Three floors, large terrace with astounding view of The Bay of Saints.

Most important for you to bring: comfortable walking shoes - tennis shoes, or sandals, because the streeets are paved in hundreds year old stones and they are hilly and steep and you
