    Description

    We are Alexis & Laura, we live in Capital Federal (Buenos Aires) and we are starting a project in a rural area of ​​Buenos Aires, 115 km from Capital Federal.

    In the last 5 years we were traveling through Europe and did several volunteering there in different regions and with different types of activities (on organic farms, agritourism, vineyards, etc.). Therefore, now that we are here in Argentina, we would love to receive volunteers to continue enriching ourselves, learning and teaching.

    During the week we are usually in the city and on weekends we go to the countryside to carry out different tasks to prepare the space: weeding, pruning fruit trees, cutting the grass, sowing or planting, cleaning, painting, etc. The field has 12.5 hectares and is in the Lobos area (Province of Buenos Aires).

    Alexis is a physical education teacher and coach, sports, working in the fields, making barbecues, etc. Laura studied agri-food, cook and pastry chef and studies organic vegetable production, she also does illustration work. We speak Spanish, English, French and Italian. We would like to practice Italian & French!

    We both like languages, cooking and drinking mate :))

    We are waiting for you!

    Somos Alexis & Laura, vivimos en Capital Federal (Buenos Aires) y estamos empezando un proyecto en una zona rural de Buenos Aires, a 115 km de Capital Federal.

    En los últimos 5 años estuvimos viajando por Europa y realizamos allí varios voluntariados en diferentes regiones y con diferentes tipos de actividades (en granjas orgánicas, agroturismo, viñedos, etc.). Por eso, ahora que estamos aquí en Argentina, nos encantaría recibir voluntarios para seguir enriqueciéndonos, aprendiendo y enseñando.

    Durante la semana solemos estar en la ciudad y los fines de semana vamos para el campo, a realizar diferentes tareas para preparar el espacio: desmalezar, podar árboles frutales, cortar el pasto, sembrar o plantar, limpiar, pintar, etc. El campo tiene 12,5 hectáreas y está en la zona de Lobos (Provincia de Buenos Aires).

    Alexis es profesor de educación física y coach, los deportes, el trabajo en el campo, hacer asados, etc. Laura estudió una carrera de agroalimentos, cocinera y pastelera y estudia producción vegetal orgánica, realiza también trabajos de ilustración. Hablamos castellano, inglés, francés e italiano. Nos gustaría practicar nuestro italiano y/o francés.
