  Description

  We are a family living in the foothills of the Andes in the town of Chillepín. A rural area surrounded by vegetation and with rock art trails, near the Choapa River. This area is the narrowest stretch in Chilean territory between the mountains and the sea, thus enjoying a privileged climate. We live a self-sustaining lifestyle, based on harmony with the environment. Our interests lie in promoting green construction, recycling, and local and ancestral history. We have some of the most beautiful skies for stargazing.
  We are currently finalizing our rural tourism and complementary therapies project, for which we ask for your collaboration in the development of spaces such as landscaping, vegetable gardens, garden cleanups, and green constructions.
  In this exchange, we share our food and provide lodging.
  So come visit us!
