    Description

    Hi! My name is Lautaro and i live in Lago Puelo, Chubut, Patagonia Argentina. I've got two little sons, Fermín and Camilo. In this moment we're starting a eco-building . For our house we choose eco-construction: straw, wood and mud. We're located in a farm side, near the river, "Rio Azul". Near our place there are plenty of paths that lead you to the mountains, finding lots of trekking and beautiful landscapes.

    Hola, mi nombre es Lautaro Amador, soy un ser cristico en evolución de conciencia, un trabajador de la luz. Vivo en Lago Puelo, chubut, patagonia Argentina. Tengo dos hijos pequeños, Fermin y Camilo. Estamos construyendo un refugio para que viva el amor del ser. Reconstrui mi casa luego del incendio del 2021 con voluntarios y estoy muy agradecido por la experiencia, hoy estamos gestando un nuevo sueño. Elegimos la construccion natural, madera, barro y paja para hacer nuestro hogar. El terreno está ubicado en zona de chacras, a 300 mt del río azul, hay muchos senderos cercanos para conocer las montañas y los hermosos paisajes de la zona.
