    Description

    We are Luisa and Monica from Germany. With our 16 dogs we are living in the mountains near Samaipata since 2019 🐶

    We moved in our own house in March 2023 and so there is a lot of work everywhere - in and around the house, with the dogs, painting, gardening,..
    The house has 27m2 and we have just one big room with 2 menzaninis and a bathroom with a shower (normally their is hot water..). We use for our electricity a Solar system (so if it's very cloudy or rainy a few days we use candles and their is no electricity) and the water is coming from the Jungle, we also have good internet access here.
    Our dogs are friendly (some of them afraid of man but just the first two days), they love to cuddle and need atención 🐾 A few of them are sleeping inside, the others have their own beds outside. So always are dogs around you!

    We are super open-minded and open for any helpers!!

    If you have a tent, their will be always space for your! 🏕️

    We offer you:
    Two mattresses on the Menzanine (you have to go up with a ladder)
    Food: Breakfast (fruits, bread, Marmelade, eggs...) and one warm meal Lunch or Dinner - vegetarian!

    We don't have WIFI at home but there is a good signal (not the best but it works)
