  Description

  I live in Punta Rubia very close to La Pedrera, a beautiful place in contact with nature and close to the beach. Of the most beautiful sunrises and skies. I really enjoy working in the garden. From there I obtain food, flowers and herbs that allow me to make medicine and cosmetics in harmony with my being and the environment

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  This is a year-round surf zone. We have the whales visit from winter to spring. And sometimes noctilucas that make the waves magically shine. We are 44km from Cabo Polonio, 15km from La Laguna de Rocha (UNESCO heritage), 12km from La Paloma and 800 meters from La Pedrera. At the Pedrera club there are usually classes and cultural events open to the public, Taichi, Theatre, Exhibitions, etc.
