    Description

    We're Catalina, Juan and Andino (3 years). Catalina is a music teacher and Juan is ski instructor in winter. We are also musicians. We want to get our house more comfortable and bigger, so we need help during the warm seassons. We are interested in the natural construcción and permaculture. Andino is our son, he is 3 years old.

    Somos una familia Catalina, Juan y Andino (3 años). Catalina es profe de música y Juan enseña esquí en temporada de invierno. Ambos nos dedicamos también a hacer música. Nuestra casita se encuentra en proceso de mejoras y ampliación, y necesitamos manos para avanzar en las épocas cálidas (primavera y verano). Nos gusta la construcción natural, la huerta, la jardinería. Andino es nuestro hijo de 3 años.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The location of the house is in a wonderful environment, near the Casa de Piedra stream and Lago Moreno, which allows you to take walks very close to the house. Our home is a quiet environment, we like to share our culture, share music (Catalina plays flute and Juan guitar), get to know the Argentine culture, and the beautiful places of Bariloche

    La ubicación de la casa es en un entorno maravilloso, cerca del arroyo Casa de piedra y de Lago Moreno, lo cual permite hacer paseos muy cerca de la casa. Nuestro hogar es un entorno tranquilo, nos gusta compartir nuestra cultura, compartir la música (Catalina toca flauta traversa y Juan guitarra) conocer la cultura Argentina, y los hermosos lugares de Bariloche

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The accommodation available is in a tent in the garden of the house, since the interior of the house is very small. We have a 2-person tent, warm blankets and a mattress if necessary. The bathroom and kitchen of the house are used.

    The exchange includes the main meals (breakfast and lunch) and the contributions of volunteers for dinners are always welcome, considering that if they want to eat something different they can buy it.
    In the house we have what is necessary for a healthy diet, based on cereals, fruit and vegetables.

    El alojamiento que se dispone es en carpa en el jardín de la casa, dado que el interior de la casa es muy pequeño. Contamos con una carpa de 2 personas, mantas de abrigo y colchón de ser necesario. Se utiliza el baño y la cocina de la casa.

    El intercambio incluye las comidas principales (desayuno y almuerzo) y siempre es bienvenido el aporte de los voluntarios para las cenas, contemplando que si desean comer algo diferente pueden comprarlo.
    En la casa contamos con lo necesario para un alimentación sana, en base a cereales, fruta y verdura.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    The land and the neighborhood are very quiet, 5 blocks away there is a very nice stream, and from there you can walk to Lake Moreno. 5 blocks away there is a bus that goes to the center, and 10 blocks away there is a large supermarket. We do not have wifi. The house is small, so tent accommodation is offered in warm weather.


    El terreno y el barrio es muy tranquilo, a 5 cuadras hay un arroyo muy lindo, y desde ahí se puede ir caminando al Lago Moreno. a 5 cuadras pasa un colectivo que va hacia el centro, y a 10 cuadras hay un supermercado grande. No contamos con wifi. La casa es pequeña, por eso se ofrece el alojamiento en carpa y en épocas cálidas.
