Description
Hello! How are you? Our names are Carolina and Javier, we are from Uruguay, we are 37 years old, and we have traveled to many countries on several continents. We currently live 200 meters from the ocean in Punta Fría, Uruguay. Together we built two bamboo yurts and renovated a house that we rent out as a tourist accommodation. This year we are going to build our own little house, so we would like the help of someone with some passion for construction. We would also be interested in someone who loves plants and gardens, since we live in a large, green space with lots of nature. The place where we live is super quiet. At night you can hear the waves of the ocean, and in the morning you wake up to the sound of birds. Write to us and we'll communicate! 😁
Hola! Cómo están? Nuestros nombres son Carolina y Javier, somos de Uruguay, tenemos 37 años y hemos viajado por muchos países de varios continentes, actualmente vivimos a 200 metros del mar en Punta Fría, Uruguay. Juntos construimos 2 Yurtas de Bamboo y reformamos una casa que alquilamos turisticamente.
Este año vamos a construir nuestra casita por lo que nos gustaría contar con la ayuda de alguien que tenga algún tipo de experiencia en construcción.
También nos interesaría alguien que sea amante de las plantas y los jardines ya que vivimos en un espacio verde amplio con muchísima naturaleza.
El lugar en el que vivimos es un lugar super tranquilo, a la noche se escuchan las olas del mar y en la mañana te despiertas con el sonido de los pajaritos.
Escribirnos y nos comunicamos!! 😁

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are a 37-year-old couple with two dogs and lots of friends! We enjoy getting together at our house to eat and hang out. We also enjoy exploring nearby natural sites and going out for fun. We are fluent in English (Carolina speaks it fluently, and Javier speaks a little). We have experience in construction. Carolina is an architect; we have renovated a house and built two bamboo yurts. We would love to exchange knowledge about construction and sustainable techniques. We love sharing meals, learning about cultures, and getting to know people from all over the world!
