Description
Hei!
I'm Luis an Argentinean/English guy living in the west forest mountains of Patagonia. I live together with Cecilia a petite girl and an old philosopher Gustavo.
We are currently in the process of building a LSC (Light Straw Clay) house.
2025/2026 Update!
We are currently doing bit of everything here in our land.
A bit of construction (finishing the second floor of our main house), clearing and tidying up the land (last summer we had a huge forest fire in our area, we were extremely lucky as only some bits of our land were burnt and our houses and main sheds survived! But we have much to tidy up.
Thus this season we have many different things to do.
We live in the same land as my mother, this is her profile:
Volunteer help in a rural retreat in beautiful and peaceful surroundings Patagonia, Argentina
Types of help and learning opportunities

Help with Eco Projects

Farmstay help
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We love having travelers staying over with us. We deeply enjoy connecting with folks from all walks of life. We offer a stay in a very beautiful small farm (4 hectares) with much forest, a small stream and small river for cool down in hot summer days. The surrounding natural area is of incredible beauty with much to explore. And the towns are also very special.
We offer you to take a dip into how to construct with natural materials and a do it yourself approach to building your own home.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
