    Soy Jose, tengo 36 años. Vivo en Sauce de Portezuelo, rodeado de amigos, cerca de la playa. Mi terreno es un espacio pequeño, rodeado de plantas, árboles y bambú con algún mosquito que otro (más en la época de verano). Me dedique a viajar varios años y en los últimos comencé a construir mi casa en Uruguay cómo encaminar un proyecto vinculado a la producción sustentable a través del bambú.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I have been working for several years as an entrepreneur linked to the development of bamboo. I have a lot of information to share regarding the resource from theoretical knowledge carried out in the production of bamboo plants, bio-construction, wetlands, holistic management, sustainability, Yoga and surfing! Here there are many things to learn and do, but the space is so small.
