    I live in the Candombe Drumming section of town - so you get a free concert about once a week . MINAS is a small city/big town , 2 hours by bus ( i hour from the beaches ) outside of MOntevideo. I have lived in this beautiful country area for over 8 years, so can tell you all about the sights that you can see here. The house is 2 and 1/2 bedrooms, with 2 large patios,hot shower , a big kitchen, excellent wifi.. It is 7 short blocks from the downtown , for the big stores, and there are little corner market 2 blocks away. This is the hiking ( mountainous ) section of the country, a. Your chores are taking care of 2 large dogs and watering whats left of my garden Please contact me for more info. Gracias!, Marta

    The dogs would like to go on a walk everyday. if that isnt possible, you can play ball with them within the property , for exercise. Or walk just 3 blocks down to the river and let them swim for exercise, weather permitting. they are BIG local breeds of dogs-Nina Simone is a short haired collie and Zorro is a basque shepherd, and if they cant exercise they will jump on people more, and other naughty behaviors. . I normally rent out rooms , i will be blocking that feature off for the time you are here, it might be better if you get here a few days ahead of time so that i can show you all the places to take the dogs, the idiosyncracies of the house, etc. . I am computing that the animal care will use up no more than 1 hour of your day, each day. the dogs can be left alone ( in seperate rooms ) during the day, so you can go and hike, or whatever , for the day. They do need someone here with them overnight, every night.
