    We are looking to form a group of volunteers from the month of August 2022 to work on the repair and painting of the exterior facade, Gardens, warehouse order, then later in the summer season we begin with the attention of tourists in the restaurant and developing activities of trekking, kayaking, mountain biking etc. Therefore, we require several volunteer hands, in exchange we offer accommodation, food, participation in tourist activities and a good atmosphere at Ecolodge, Cabo de Hornos, Puerto Williams.
    We are a couple of young professionals, both dentists, we came to live in the area in 2011 to contribute with our profession, we began to carry out sports activities in the open air to encourage the development of these activities in the place, after a few years in 2013 we began to build a place to receive people who want to contribute with their work to the sports and tourism development of the place.
    This season we are working with tourists, we need friendly and voluntary hands that want to contribute to building dreams in one of the most remote and southern places on the planet.
    Our Ecolodge was opened in January 2017 and this is our third season with tourists, we are looking for proactive, adventurous and hard-working people who want to meet, collaborate and share.
