  Very soon a profesional local electrician will install our air conditioners and showers. He always takes His time to explain work if you want to learn from It. We have two german profesional tilers here also. They can explain their work in english and german while we support then. We (Katarina and me) aré doing the most of the work with our own hands at the moment. Removing old color from the walls, prepairing the walls for painting, paint, cleaning, prepare wood, cleaning, decorating and stuff like that. After opening we will do the administración, keep the house clean and take care of our visitors. We will also to hire 2 local people in part time or one fulltime to support us in that work except the administración. This includes especialy cleaning the rooms and the common área. At the moment the people that work here Is a mix of locals here that aré friends of us, locals that aré hired, and german friends that aré hired or helping because of our friendship. So we have an internacional team AND different cultures in our house. We hope we can add some new soon! :)
  
  We offer single rooms, sometimes we cook together, city trips, fun and working with music. And we already know the city well so we can tell you the spots to can buy everything cheap and locations to go out. We plan to show you the famous mercado 4 that Is the heart of trading here and where you can find everything cheap. We also want to show you where you can get in touch with locals at the weekends. The famous street that Is named palma and the Costanera Is also nearby. You aré invited to make a trip with us.
  
  We speak english, spanish and german.
  
  We are looking forward to your messages.
  
  Katarina and Hinrich
