    Hi, I'm Olga, I live with my mother and other friends, David and Josephine & Ray...the baby... outside of Cunco, about 4 kms away, a pre-mountain town in the south east of Temuco (IXRegion) Chile, surrounded by beautiful natural attractions such as Lake Colico and Lake Caburgua, very near Melipeuco (international highway, towards Argentina) where we find the Llaima volcano, Conguillio National Park and among other wonders the Mapuche culture.

    We also have a beautiful Biocontruction project with recycled materials.
    The activities are varied according to the season.
