Arrival

On December 10th, the sailboat of the Schurmann family expedition will enter Itajaí from Cape Town, South Africa, after another trip around the world. The news was given by Commander Vilfredo Schurmann himself, who came to Floripa for the release of the film The Little Secret, which portrays the story of Kate, the adopted daughter who died of AIDS and was nominated for the Oscar 2016. And the people of Santa Catarina, of course, in the biggest crowd for the most coveted award in the seventh art.

 

Stampede

As expected, after the municipal elections, Governor Raimundo Colombo began to deal with a recomposition of his political party base. And it already started with the departure of the PR from the Secretary of Culture, Sport and Tourism with Felipe Mello cleaning the drawers and packing bags for the first echelon of the elected mayor Gean Loureiro.

 

Embryo

Composition of the first echelon of the mayor-elect of the capital of Santa Catarina will be an embryo of the political scenario for the 2018 government election. .

 

by the bridge

One of the pleasant revelations of MPB in recent years, singer-songwriter Lenine lands on the island without asking how to get out. He will stay in Florianópolis for three shows at the CIC from Saturday to Monday accompanied by the Camerata de Florianópolis, explaining that you leave through the bridge, through the bridge. Unmissable.

 

Folia

Many tourists will arrive asking how to leave the Island after the holidays... follow the queue, follow the queue on the bridge. Ilha e really will boil with several parties, ballads and shows, like the band Blues Etílicas at John Bull, in Lagoa, the Instrumental festival in Ribeirão and having the Folianópolis electric trio as its flagship with Ivete Sangalo putting the chairs and legs to break on the Nego Quirido catwalk.

 

swing states

It is a terminology that defines American states with no tradition of voting for one party as the majority that opts for Republicans or Democrats. Floripa we can say that it is a “swing city”... with each election it shifts to one side.

 

They

The PMDB Mulher got better on the tape, as its president Ada de Luca likes to say about the PMDB women's empowerment. After the municipal elections, the party won 135 councilors and 8 mayors. It just hasn't got a woman in the majority yet. Still...

 

Backwards

“We will go back to the times of the caravels, when visitors were the enemy”. Sentence by the president of the Federation of Hotels, Restaurants, Bars and Similar, Estanislau Brezolin, about the difficulties for the tourist facilities to avenge in Floripa. Hence, we continue with our backs to the sea without seeing marinas and piers to boost nautical tourism on the island.

 

Invasion

Asking doesn't offend: off duty soldier gives you the right to use a gun and invade someone else's house? For police officers in Santa Catarina, only in Biguaçu.
