Here's some emails
we got from people who stayed here...
Dear Mark,
We want to thank you again for the week we spent at your house
during the time of carnival 2007.
We enjoyed the happy atmosphere and were always pleased to return to the
family-feeling at the house.
The carnival in Salvador was, without any doubt, a great experience for us, and your helpful suggestions made a great contribute for it.
If we happen to be in Salvador again, we would love to come over and say hi.
David and Rona,
ISRAEL.
Hi Mark,
Rachel and I are currently very much enjoying ourselves at Arrial de Ajuda. We missed Jim and Angie by a day which is too bad, but we might see Dudi and Rona next week--look at all these international friendships you started!
Anyway, I would like to say thank you thank you thank you for opening your home to all of us during Carnaval. I know we all had an amazing time; your hospitality and lovely home had an enormous part of that. I really appreciate your generosity. It led to an excellent week l will not forget.
If you need references for next year, feel free to send my email as I would love others to have the same special experience I did. Please thank Evani, Ruan and Lucas again for me (although Lucas will probably say "no" to that).
Good luck with your work and moving those bunk beds back!
Sincerely,
Lindsey

Hi Mark
Sorry this has taken so long, But life has been pretty hectic since getting home.
I just wanted to say thank you very much for your hospitality during our stay with you. You were very welcoming and we had a great time. Thanks also to Evani and her sister, they were so much fun and treated us like royalty.You have a wonderful family and a great house and we feel very lucky that we found your website. I hope Ruan is still working at his Michael Jackson dances, I can see him being a part of Carnaval in years to come. As for little Lucas, I hope me teaching him how to play 'boing' on the mattress hasn't caused you too much trouble.
Again, thanks alot for everything, I hope you are all well and enjoying life.
