Beschreibung
Hidden away in the forested foothills of the Andes, this is a stunningly beautiful property with a stream running through it, native woodlands, vineyards and an abundance of trails, flora and fauna.
Tumuñan lodge and vineyard was established in 2006. It's a family run project and care for the environment is taken very seriously.
Everyday there is a different challenge, we have a vineyard, vegetable garden, two dogs, plus clients to attend to!
Help in the garden and vineyard is needed, and also looking after guests at the lodge too.
Computer and photography skills would be a bonus!
Experience in outdoor work would be great. The vineyard is 3 acres and requires quite a bit of work too.
Applicants should be comfortable with solitude and living independently.

There is a bus service that gets you to the cabin and from San Fernando (nearest city, 33km away, 80,000 people)

Hunter was an absolutely fantastic volunteer. Quick to learn, hardworking, intelligent and brilliant company, for me the owner, and also for the other staff and volunteers. I would hire her in a flash if she applied for a job at the lodge! Anyone who is considering hosting her should do so without a second thought!

Wonderful company, great attitude and very skilled at all the tasks they were set.
In fact we invited them back, but sadly they can't come. I recommend them to anyone looking for great people with a great work ethic.
