    Description

    My family owns a small island in the northern Patagonia of Chile, guardian of one of the few myrtle forests in the world and custodian of two types of bioluminescent life. We want to complete a project for a self-sustainable park and a sailing school. The jobs on the island that we need are help in the construction of the tiny house, maintenance of the garden and the wooden sailboats. Here you can fish from the shore, catch shellfish on full and new moons, and walk through the forest. We are only 1 mile from the town of Calbuco

    Mi familia es dueña de una pequeña isla en la patagonia norte de Chile, guardiana de uno de los pocos bosques de arrayanes en el mundo y custodia de dos tipos de vida bioluminicente. Queremos concretar un proyecto de un parque autosustentable y una escuela de navegación a vela. Los trabajos en la isla que necesitamos son ayuda en la construcción de tiny house, mantenimiento del huerto y los Veleros de madera. Aquí se puede pescar desde la orilla, sacar mariscos en las lunas llenas y nuevas y pasear por el bosque. Estamos solo a 1 milla de la ciudad de Calbuco

    I am a navigation professor at the San Sebastián University and I am building my own school here on the island, so on weekends we can learn to sail. I also know astronomical navigation. On the island we will be the only inhabitants, so it is necessary that we work as a team with the needs that we will have, good communication and motivation to live this adventure
