    Description

    I live in the town of El Bolsón, in the province of Río Negro, Argentina. My hometown is a developing village surrounded by mountains and lakes, a popular destination for hundreds of tourists from all over the world. The cultural and ethnic mix is amazing, as people from all over the globe live here, making this place a haven of freedom and creativity. Agroecological farming is a major industry, with a strong emphasis on environmental protection and a commitment to ecological awareness. Handicrafts and handmade goods are also highly valued. My family consists of my husband and an 18-year-old son. My husband also owns a small farm in the neighboring town of Lago Puelo, which means he is sometimes away from home. We are a family that strives to make visitors feel welcome. We love nature, enjoy walks in it, and especially love the lakes in the summer. We have a car.

Mi marido a su vez tiene una chacra en el pueblo vecino, llamado Lago Puelo, eso hace que en ocasione no esté en la casa que resido.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    My family likes to enjoy nature, which means we organise walks or trips to lakes. We have a car that takes us to different places for recreation.
    I was born in a German community, so I can get by quite well in that language. My mother is from the Mapuche ethnic group, which means I have a special interest in the history of that nation.
    I like to travel, although it is not always possible, so I like to learn from people who travel, who tell me about geography, history, etc.

    A mi familia le gusta disfrutar de la naturaleza, lo que hace que organicemos salidas de caminatas o lagos. contamos con un auto que nos transporta a los diferentes lugares de esparcimiento.
    personalmente nací en una comunidad alemana, con lo cual me defiendo bastante bien con ese idioma, a su vez mi madre es originaria de la etnia mapuche, lo que hace tenga especial interés por la historia de dicha nación.
    me gusta viajar, aunque no siempre me es posible, entonces me gusta aprender de la gente que viaja, que me cuenten sobre geografías, historias etc.
