    Description

    So far I have been an eternal traveler and I have considered parking myself to carry out a sustainable project with my dear brother Miguel and his family. On a 16-hectare site we have begun to restore an adobe house that was damaged by the 2010 earthquake. Along with that we are cleaning the land of all polluting material left by the old owners: plastic, metals, tires, glass, etc.. Our plan is to offer a sustainable retreat to enjoy the tranquility, fauna, flora, views and enriching personal relationships, offering lodging in 10 small cabins with capacity for two people, provided with electricity (solar panels) and dry toilet. Have a common place for meals, yoga and meditation sessions, in addition to the always well-received massages. The project is very motivating for those who want to participate because we are just beginning and at this stage help is essential and any input with new ideas will be welcome. We are located 20 kilometers from Lolol, 250 kilometers south of Santiago. Lolol is located in the producing region par excellence of the best wines of Chile.

    Hasta el momento he sido un eterno viajero y me he planteado estacionarme para llevar a cabo un proyecto sustentable junto a mi querido hermano Miguel y su familia. En un terreno de 16 hectáreas hemos comenzado a resaturar una casa de adobes que fue dañada con el terremoto del 2010. Junto a eso estamos limpiando el terreno de todo material contaminante que dejaron los antiguos dueños: plástico, metales, neumáticos, vidrios, etc. Nuestro plan es ofrecer un lugar sustentable para disfrutar de la tranquilidad, fauna, flora, vistas y relaciones personales enriquecedoras, ofreciendo alojamiento en 10 pequeñas cabinas con capacidad para dos personas, provistas de electricidad (paneles solares) y baño seco. Tener un lugar común para las comidas, sesiones de yoga y meditación, además de los siempre bien recibidos masajes. El proyecto es muy motivador para quienes quieran participar debido a que estamos comenzando y en esta etapa la ayuda es fundamental y cualquier aporte con nuevas ideas serán bienvenidas. Estamos ubicados a 20 kilómetros de Lolol, a 250 kilómetros al sur de Santiago. Lolol esta ubicado en la región productora por excelencia de los mejores vinos de Chile.
