Description
I am currently in England sorting out my mothers affairs after her funeral, so I'm 4 hours ahead of you.
Perfect for digital nomads, You'll be using your own phone as hotspot. There's no wifi.
Must enjoy RUSTIC and RURAL and your own company! 2 hours/178 km north of Santiago.
Three food stores a 15 minute walk away.
I'm an author/photographer of six books and 100's of magazine articles. I've just finished my first film set in Africa. I traveled in a van with two dogs for 7 years, have been to over 60 countries. Because of the help of other workawayers, a bull-dozed piece of land has been turned into Paradise! Recycled water has been used all over the garden.

Gökçe especially was fantastic. I'd been getting 3 and 4 star ratings at my rental cabin in Chile. While she and Sean were there, the ratings were consistently 5 star! Each time after cleaning, Gökçe would give me a quick tour of the cabin by video and it really did look fabulous! I currently live in Tanzania, so trusting people to take care of… read more

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Simona)
Simone successfully took care of my rental cabin in Chile for about two months. She was very resourceful when there were problems with the cabin, sometimes finding fix-it people by herself. Many of my rental guests wrote that they appreciated Simone's welcoming nature. She kept the rental space clean. The only problems which we had were some… read more

Maxime and Louise saved the day! I run a rental. The woman who often helps clean burnt her hand badly and I had guests coming. Then Maxime and Louise contacted me. I KNEW they would be great even though they'd never done Workaway. They took an early bus to get to my cabin, and even though they'd never seen my place before they cleaned like crazy… read more

It was our first Workaway and we will remember it for the rest of our lives! The daily job was easy : cleaning and taking care of an rental (upstairs) and during this time you live in the cabin (downstairs). It's not a place to meet other people but it's the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. The caban is so peaceful and right in front of… read more

This was a fantastic work-away experience! Lorraine's place is absolutely gorgeous, a short, quiet distance from town and right on the ocean! The work was varied and enjoyable. Lorraine is very relaxed and straight forward in what she wants done.
Lorraine (and the dogs) are amazing! i highly recommend this work-away experience.

This was a great experience! This couple are smart, adaptable and easy-going. I had a bunch of varied jobs that needed doing at my cabin. They both were able to contemplate the tasks, problem solve and COMPLETE the jobs. I asked them to make a tire staircase going down to the beach and Loes did a tire foundation under my house.

Another great Workaway experience! We contacted Lorraine really last-minute, so we were extra happy everything worked out for both parties. Lorraine has so many ideas for new projects, so you won't be bored. We have done some things in and around the garden, built a staircase from car tires, painted the house, built wooden benches, and made a… read more

Nathan and I had an AMAZING time at Lorraine's. Not only is she kind and welcoming, but her dogs and everyone in town are too. We stayed for around 5 days and had fun installing insulation, putting in windows, and creating an inner wall out of scrap wood. Her home is beautiful and the view is unbelievable. We cannot recommend this place or company… read more

Jan-Philipp is the ideal workawayer. You give him a task and he begins to make it happen. At my cabin he worked on a number of projects, but mainly built a roof for my underground greenhouse which involved engineering problems which he solved. He enters the kitchen and asks, 'What can I do to help?' Or he just makes it happen. I wish all… read more

I had a wonderful time at Lorraine's! I stayed there a week, helping with the construction of her (crazy) underground greenhouse. She comes up with an impressive number of ideas each day and enjoys working on different projects at the same time which are always fun to do.

A joy to be around, Gras has one of those special, deep, artistic souls who also can work hard. He did a number of tasks, including sanding the side of my cabin by hand and with power tools, and building a tire staircase down to my underground greenhouse. He also cleaned without being asked, a huge plus!
