The mother and daughter who LIVE in McDonald’s: Women, aged 64 and 31, have spent 19 hours a day in Brazilian branch for three months – along with their suitcases and fully-charged phones – after being left homeless

A mother and daughter have been living in a McDonald’s in Brazil for three months with suitcases full of belongings after being evicted from their home.

The pair, identified by local media as Susane Paula Muratoni Geremia, 64, and Bruna Muratori Geremia, 31, remain at the fast food restaurant until they are told to leave when it closes at 5am.

They then wait outside the restaurant, which is located in Rio de Janeiro’s upscale Leblon neighborhood, and sleep on the street until it reopens at 10 a.m.

They both have cell phones and pay for every meal, saying they would rather stay at the burger restaurant on the coast than take up the offer of a place in a homeless shelter.

The women claim they receive financial support from Bruna’s father, who according to local media lives in Britain, and both deny that they have not paid their debts.

They said CBN that they are looking for apartments to rent in the area and plan to stay at the McDonald’s branch until they find a home within their budget.

The daughter reportedly said they would like to stay at McDonald’s until that happens.

β€œIt’s peaceful here and I feel safe and welcome,” she said. “The staff treated us very well.”

Well-wishers in the area say offers of help to the couple have all been rejected, although CBN reports they are showering at the homes of nearby residents.

Despite their difficult living situation, the couple would always be clean and well-dressed and do their makeup every day.

Both have mobile phones, which are always fully charged, and they are waiting with at least five large suitcases that reportedly contain tennis rackets, clothes and books, as well as shoes and other accessories.

The pair wait outside the restaurant when it closes at 5 a.m. and sleep on the street until it reopens at 10 a.m.

The 31-year-old is fluent in English and Spanish and speaks some French, and previously worked as a language teacher, among other things.

The jobs typically lasted only a few months at a time, it is reported, and people who have worked with her have described her as “closed” and “mysterious.”

Both women are said to have been born in Rio Grande do Sul, but have lived in Rio de Janeiro for eight years.

The women told local media that they are currently looking for an apartment and do not understand the curiosity they have aroused.

The two also argued that their situation is common in Europe and the United States.

Mama Susane said: ‘I find everything ridiculous, I don’t understand how this snowball effect happened.’

Bruna added: ‘If it had been a person with a dark complexion, with few clothes, with few suitcases, it would not have attracted attention.

‘I think the fascination is that we are like the people who read about us, they see that this could actually be them too.

‘I didn’t want to put myself in the spotlight, I didn’t want fame or visibility because I was homeless, no one wants to live on the streets and I miss sleeping in a bed.

“But this problem applies to me and my mother, and to a system that conspires against you if you don’t have a lot of money in the housing market.”
