    Description

    Hello :) Currently we are receiving 2 volunteers maximum. We are accepting requests for summer 2023-2024. What is your level of Spanish?
    We are a family of four people, but just my mom and my younger sister live together in the countryside of Los Angeles, Chile. My sister would like to improve English and definitely you will practice Spanish with my mother. Anyways, translators app work :)
    We need someone that can help my mom with her daily tasks in the country side. Also if you know about construction and carpentry and all related to build a little cabin, to help my mother to build it at her beautiful farm, also help with some light farm jobs, taking care of pets and animals like sheeps and pigs and help around the house. Also cooking would be great!
    We have a project to build a little cabin to be rented in the near future, but that is not that urgent anymore.

    We have internet.

    You'll get 2 days off and also evenings or mornings off if you volunteer 5 hours per day, 5 days a week.
    We are gonna provide accomodation, food, and ingredients if you wanna cook something for the family :)

    Please do not hesitate to contact us to have more information!

    Kindly

    Sofia
