Description
hello. hola

IMPORTANTE. :)
we are currently working on the woodcut, between the typicals works of cheese and grenhouse.

in the field we are four. mia papa julio, mi mama margoth my brother gabriel and me, we are currently studying weekends agronomy in the city of Osorno. We are located south of Puerto Montt (60 km) towards the village of Maullin. In Puerto Montt there are many activities such as tourism, shopping centers, and near the beautiful Lake Llanquihue, where you will find beautiful views of our volcanoes (Osorno and Calbuco). In Maulin a smaller town, it has beautiful beaches, places to eat, views of the rivers. in a rural sector with very good transport at the edge of the road. We work with cows and produce our own cheese. we have some animals as goats pigs calves and our dogs very friendly and clear with the magic of the field. and now I am developing a greenhouse.

We hope to receive respectful people with family, animals and in general with the environment that surrounds them. in
recapitulating good manners.

Alessandra is the first single female volunteer that I receive and I am happy and surprise, with her help, she was a very hardworking person when taking the initiative, with the works. especially when she learned to use the chainsaw and not so much when she had to get the eggs from the chickens (a chicken)jjaja.
Neat, respectful and very good to… read more

Hello, guys! These two guys were the coolest and hardworking. a very nice couple, willing to work in different tasks that involve the field. Yes, they ate a lot of cheese and butter, haha, they were skinny, they went fat. I hope your trip is full of good experiences and if you decide to return to the countryside you will be welcome. :)

We got a room for ourselves and everything was easygoing. The work was diversified, not too hard and we could even learn how to make cheese. There was always time for a… read more

We spent a week at Julio's place.
This was the perfect mix between workaway and couchsurfing. We have learnt a lot about the chilean culture and the area. Julio and Margoth, his parents are very welcoming and open to share their stories. "Mama Margoth" is always smiling and will cook you some very good food, "Papa Julio" will tell you about the… read more
