    Description

    Hi! I'm Charlie 🌿
    I live in a beautiful place near Santiago called Cajón del Maipo, surrounded by nature, mountains, and a simple life that I love. Music, dogs 🐶, and the peaceful rhythm of the countryside keep me company.

    I manage two tourist cabins in the mountains, which are also my home, and I also have a place in the city where we develop both urban and nature tourism experiences.

    Two people help us in the city, and in the mountains you work directly with me.

    If you love the outdoors, animals, and a relaxed atmosphere—or if you enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city—you're very welcome to collaborate with us. There's always something to do, and every helping hand makes a big difference.

    I look forward to sharing a beautiful, authentic, and positive experience with you, both in the mountains and in the city. 🏔️✨

    Hola! Soy Charlie 🌿
    Vivo en un lugar precioso de Santiago llamado Cajón del Maipo, rodeada de naturaleza, montañas y una vida simple que me encanta. Me acompañan la música, los perros 🐶 y el ritmo tranquilo del campo.

    Gestiono dos cabañas turísticas en la montaña que es mi casa y también tengo un sitio en la ciudad, donde desarrollamos experiencias de turismo tanto urbano como de naturaleza.
    2 personas nos ayudan en la ciudad y en la montaña trabajas directo conmigo .
    Si te gusta la vida al aire libre, los animales y un ambiente relajado —o si disfrutas el movimiento y la energía de la ciudad— eres muy bienvenido/a a colaborar con nosotros. Siempre hay algo por hacer y cada mano suma un montón.

    Te espero para vivir una experiencia linda, auténtica y con buena onda, tanto en la montaña como en la ciudad. 🏔️✨

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    In the city: There's more activity; you can mingle with Chileans, meet other travelers, and experience Santiago's vibrant rhythm. Sometimes you'll share meals, music, or simply a good conversation in the kitchen.

    In the mountains: Here, you'll find a different kind of connection: hiking, nature, adventure sports, campfires, and encounters with locals from the Cajón del Maipo. It's a slower pace, more about taking deep breaths and enjoying the moment. And pets are welcome.

    --
    En la ciudad :
    Hay más movimiento, puedes convivir con chilenos, conocer viajeros y sentir el ritmo típico de Santiago. A veces se comparten comidas, música o simplemente una buena conversación en la cocina.

    En la montaña :
    Aquí se da otro tipo de conexión: caminatas, naturaleza, deportes de aventura, fogatas y encuentros con gente local del Cajón del Maipo. Es un ritmo más pausado, más de respirar hondo y disfrutar. Y mascotas .

    Help

    I'm looking for energetic and helpful people. Tasks vary depending on the location and time of year, but typically include:

    • Cleaning rooms and common areas

    Greeting guests and assisting with check-in/check-out

    Pet care (loving and very attentive dogs)

    Garden maintenance: watering, plants, and yard help

    Manual tasks and general maintenance

    Occasional painting

    In the city: assistance with cleaning, tidying, and minor repairs

    In the mountains: general support in the cabins and surrounding areas.

    The tasks are generally performed independently of me. However, we will collaborate under my guidance; some days we will work together, and other days we will work independently with tasks to complete.
