  Description

  Hello everyone!
  
  I'm Florencia, I was born in Montevideo, Uruguay, and I've been living in La Paloma for 5 years with my dog Cinnamon and my cat Mooni Moon. Here I have some cabins that I rent out during the summer, and during the winter I usually travel looking for the heat and the waves! I decided to live here mainly for surfing! And for the tranquility of this place and its nature. Life here is very calm, I like to paint and I'm about to build an atelier / workshop on top of a trailer (tiny house type) to be able to show and sell my art. I like working with wood, taking photos, music, friends, traveling and surfing. I want to receive people who can help me with the general maintenance of the place, cleaning land, gardening, making firewood, and some small wood construction projects. I'm interested in audiovisuals and I want to learn how to edit! I would love to host people who can help me with that and the different tasks I mentioned before. Here the cabins are 2 blocks from the beach and the surroundings are beautiful and quiet, full of pine trees and far from the center! As accommodation you would have one of the super comfortable and equipped cabins with wifi. And we can walk around all the surroundings and make bonfires at home and look for the wave and share the experiences!
