    Hola, me llamo Carmen, tengo un lindo campo en el sur de Coyhaique. Necesito ayuda todo el año, para hacer varias cosas.
    De preferencia recibo sólo de un voluntario (a), dentro de las labores que se desarrollan durante todo el dia, puedo contarles que son: limpiar invernaderos, juntar leña, rodear ovejas, limpiar huertos al aire libre, trabajar la tierra, mas todas aquellas labores cotidianas de un hogar, por las tardes se pueden realizar artesanías propias de la región, como es telar, hilados, fieltros, cardar lana, etc.
    La vida diaria en el campo, es activa, por lo cual si alguien se motiva a visitarme, deberá colaborar en estas labores antes mencionadas y ser proactivo (a).


    Hi, my name is Carmen, I have a nice field in the south of Coyhaique. I need help all year, to do several things.
    Preferably I only receive from a volunteer, within the tasks that are developed throughout the day, I can tell you that they are: clean greenhouses, gather firewood, surround sheep, clean outdoor gardens, work the land, plus all those daily tasks of a home, in the afternoon you can make crafts typical of the region, such as looms, yarns, felts, card wool, etc.
    Daily life in the countryside is active, so if someone is motivated to visit me, they should collaborate in these tasks mentioned above and be proactive

    Tengo variedad de animales y necesito también tu ayuda para cuidar ellos: 5 alpacas, ovejas, pollos, perros, cerdos, gatos… ¡es una grande familia!
    Trabajo también la lana, para hacer cosas artesanales, decoración, ropa…
