Description
Hola! We are a family project on 6.5h land on the river coast, surrounded by beautiful forests, rivers and lakes. Spring water, pure nature! Tremendous trails to mind-blowing views. We are one hour away from Bariloche, one and a half from San Martín de los Andes, one from Villa Traful. Satellite Internet connection limited per day but very good. We prefer volunteers who want to live a more complete and longer experience (month to three months) but all proposals welcome. I have a difficult year and not much help. Life in the Campo is very powerful and complete, and takes some time to learn how place works!

Hernan's was our first workaway experience and we had a fantastic 3.5 weeks. Hernan is a very generous, fun and welcoming host making sure we always felt at home. This is the perfect workaway if you want to get away from it all (and won't miss wifi or electricity!) We enjoyed a slower pace of life, eating meals on the campfire and swimming in the… read more

Hernan lives in one of the most stunningly beautiful places I have ever been. What a wonderful experience. We chose to camp in our tent along the river and were able to look up at the stars every night. Hernan enjoys entertaining and is one heck of a campfire chef. Everything is more or less as it seems, the work is tough but not too tough and… read more
