    Description

    Hello my name is Hernán from Chile, in South America. I am currently trying to start a tourism project on a piece of land located in a field 20 kilometers from the city. The place has 1 hectare of surface, half of the land has a beautiful forest and the other half has a meadow. The place itself is beautiful, that is why I want to take advantage of that natural beauty to create a camping area in the forest and set up a cabin with an outdoor hot tub that will be under the trees. I rent a house in the city of Puerto Montt where I live alone with my two puppies, and on my days off I try to make progress in the place.

    I want travelers to know my region because this area is rich in natural beauty such as volcanoes, lakes, rivers, mountains, sea and national parks. Travelers can experience the tranquility of the countryside or visit Puerto Montt which is 20 km away, there are buses from the main route to get there. I am also constantly receiving travelers from all over the world through the Couchsurfing community, with whom we visit the countryside and can share great moments with meals around a campfire.
