    For the horse stable we need help with the following tasks:

    1 - Give food to the horses ( 8:00 a.m)
    2 - Release to paddock (09:30 a.m) and keep horses in the afternoon (17:00 p.m)
    3 - Clean 4 boxes (10:00 -11:30)

    The help consists of feeding horses, cleaning stalls and leaving horses in the paddock and in the afternoon keeping them in the stable

    Only one person is necessary to carry out the duties but it is better two so that they are accompanied, adults, over 25.

    Our place is 5 km from the town of Curarrehue
    (Pucón is 45 km away.)

    Therefore it is a place where there is no discotheque or that type of entertainment, it is necessary for someone who appreciates nature, being in it and working in it, it is very quiet with few neighbors and we focus on taking care of the horses


    Nuestro lugar esta ubicado a 45 minutos de la ciudad de Pucón
    La ayuda consta de alimenta caballos, limpiar pesebreras y dejar caballos en potrero y por la tarde guardarlos en el establo

    Es necesario solo una persona para realizar los deberes pero es mejor dos para que estén acompañados, adultos, mayores de 25.

    Nuestro lugar esta a 5 km de el pueblo de Curarrehue
    (Pucón está a 45 km.)

    Por lo tanto es un lugar donde no hay discotheque ni ese tipo de entretenimiento, es necesario de alguien que aprecie la naturaleza, estar en ella y trabajar en ella, es muy tranquilo de pocos vecinos y nos enfocamos en cuidar a los caballos

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    To leave from the stable I have to go to another place there is a 5 km distance to the bus in Curarrehue, you can hitchhike, it is reliable, ask for a taxi or Uber or adapt to any departure that we already have scheduled.

    There are hot springs 10 km away, national parks in the area about 45 minutes away in the Puesco area, in the Villarrica national park
    Souvenir shops in Curarrehue among others

    Well, to add more information, it is important to mention that the job will have to be for an active person who can spend time alone or with their roommate.
    It is necessary that the person who comes to help us can carry out the activities by himself or with his partner in a mature way and with the ability to entertain himself or organize activities on his own in his free time. I am writing this since I previously had very young helpers where I had to deal with girls who were not used to hard work and far from the city

    Something very important is that it is not allowed to be drunk or drugged while you are in the place and respect will always prevailPara salir desde el establo he ir a otro lugar hay 5 km de distancia al bus en Curarrehue, puedes hacer dedo, es confiable, pedir un taxi o Uber o adecuarte a alguna salida que ya tengamos programada.

    Hay termas a 10 km , parques nacionales en la zona alrededor de 45 minutos de distancia en el área de Puesco , en el parque nacional Villarrica
    Tiendas con souvenir en Curarrehue entre otros

    Bueno para agregar mas información es importante mencionar que el trabajo tendrá que ser para una persona activa y que pueda pasar tiempo a solas o con su compañero de cuarto
    Es necesario que la persona que venga a ayudarnos pueda realizar las actividades por si solo o con su compañero de forma madura y con capacidad de que en su tiempo libre pueda entretenerse u organizar actividades por si solo, escribo esto ya que anteriormente tuve ayudantes muy jóvenes en donde tuve que lidiar con chicas que no estaban acostumbradas al trabajo rudo y lejano a la ciudad

    Algo muy importante es que no se permite estar ebrio o drogado mientras estés en el lugar y siempre prevalecerá el respeto
