the dome is an open space, our room is in the second floor and the volunteers sleep in the first.
we have hot shower.
we provide breakfast, lunch and chilean "once". Aurora is vegetarian but Martín isnt.
we always go to the bus station to pick up the volunteers, so dont worry about how to get at our place.
