    Description

    Reading this part is very important.

    At this time we will only receive applications from people who have skills in construction and carpentry and muralism.

    It is important that you have average Spanish, so that we can communicate clearly and thus achieve fluid conversations.

    We only have availability from April 15 to September 2024
    —————————————-————————-

    I am Chaska, a backstrap loom weaver, I have a small textile products store where I sell my work.
    I live with my life partner, Rolando, he is a mathematics teacher.
    Here you live a beautiful, simple life full of love.

    *Construction/carpentry
    We need to build several things in our house, like a large chicken coop, make furniture, and fix up the textile workshop that is in the middle.


    *Façade and store mural.
    With the family we have a small store where we sell products that we make with family and other friends.
    For this project I am looking for artists, muralists with experience because I have a very clear idea for the facade of my house and the store.

    We need professional, responsible and proactive people who know how to enjoy living in our house with a Chinchera family.

    * Working time
    -5 days of work / 2 days off
    -On the 5 days of work, 3 meals a day will be delivered.
    - Minimum stay 2 weeks.

    Some considerations:

    -Smoking, alcohol or drugs are not allowed in the house.

    - When you apply, send us photos or pdf of your work.

    - We like communication to be clear, so we will have some weekly meetings to organize ourselves and to see the progress of the projects.

    - Proactivity is something we really look for in a volunteer.


    Thank you very much and we are waiting for you with open arms.
