  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Workawayers will benefit from a magical rural scenery with beautiful beaches with exceptional conditions for surfing. We have a very interesting group of families that participate actively in the project and have many friends who are constantly helping us to grow. The group of children that assist are nature raised which makes teaching an amazing journey for nature lovers. In this region of Ñuble there are many touristic highlights such as vineyards, craftmaking, ski, volcanos, hikking and rock climbing.
