    Description

    ATTENTION: Many people write to us, so we respond message by message while we evaluate profiles. Please, if you write to us, specify your desired date, how long, and travel goals.

    Now then, hello! This is Lucia and Manuel. Active, dynamic, dreamers... We love to invent and project ideas. Many volunteers have helped us with our projects; we are very grateful for that.

    We have our shop in the center of town, where we offer smoothies, fine fruits, sweets, medicinal herbs, handicrafts, and much more. In the summer, we work every day during the peak tourist season. The rest of the year, we work in the shop, but less often, as the tourist season slows.

    It's autumn; it's cold, it sometimes rains, the days are shorter... autumn...
    Right now, Manu is working on finishing his candy factory. Lucia is a Pilates teacher and university student.
    We both love working in the garden, being in the yard, with the plants, the earth...

    We're looking for easy-going people who are willing to live in harmony, who are cooperative, respectful, and responsible with the place where they're staying and its surroundings. We prefer couples, but it's not exclusive.
    We speak Spanish and would like you to learn it too. It's very important to us that you can communicate (even if it's with Google Translate). During your stay, you'll get used to speaking Spanish.
    We look forward to hearing from you!

    ATENCIÓN: Escriben muchas personas, por ende contestamos mensaje por mensaje mientras evaluamos perfiles. Por favor, si nos escribís especifica qué fecha quisieras venir, cuánto tiempo, objetivos de viaje.

    Ahora si ¡Hola! Por acá, Lucia y Manuel. Activos, dinámicos, soñadores... Nos encanta inventar y proyectar ideas. Muchos voluntarios nos han ayudado en nuestros proyectos, estamos muy agradecidos por ello.

    Tenemos nuestra tienda en el centro del pueblo, donde ofrecemos licuados, frutas finas, dulces, hierbas medicinales, artesanías y muchas cosas más. En verano, trabajamos todos los días, por la temporada alta de turismo. Lo que resta del año, trabajamos en la tienda, pero menos, ya que baja la temporada turística.

    Nos encontramos en otoño, hace frío, a veces llueve, los días son más cortos... otoño...
    En este momento, Manu esta trabajando en la terminación de su fábrica de dulces. Lucia es profe de Pilates y estudiante universitaria.
    A ambos nos encanta trabajar en la huerta, estar en el jardín, con las plantas, la tierra...

    Buscamos personas tranquilas que estén dispuestas a convivir en armonía, que colaboren, sean respetuosas y responsables con el lugar donde se hospedan y su entorno. Preferiblemente buscamos parejas, pero no es excluyente.
    Hablamos español y nos gustaría que también lo aprendas. Para nosotros, es muy importante que puedas comunicarte (incluso si es con Google Traductor). Durante tu estancia, te acostumbrarás a hablar español.
    ¡Esperamos tu mensaje!

    Accommodation

    We have two types of accommodation:
    A house designed to host workawayers from around the world. We plan to create a future hostel there. Currently, Charly, a friend who cares for us and helps with daily chores, is living in a private room.
    The house has a living room, a fully equipped bathroom, hot/cold water, natural gas, a fully equipped kitchen, and a refrigerator for storing food. Free internet access is also available.
    We have some blankets for the bed, but bringing a sleeping bag or blanket with you is not a bad idea.
    The house is located in the center of town, which means you'll have access to shops, kiosks, and many other amenities.

    We also have a mini cabin ("double cabin") for up to two people. It has a double bed, a desk, and personal and private space. This mini cabin is located on the same property as our house. 4 km from the center and less than 1 km from the lake. The bathroom, kitchen, and living room are shared. Free internet access.

    Tenemos 2 tipos de alojamiento:
    Una casa destinada para hospedar a workawayers de diferentes partes del mundo. Tenemos en mente, la creación de un futuro hostel en la misma. En este momento, en una habitación privada esta Charly, un amigo que cuida y ayuda con los labores del día a día.
    La casa cuenta con un living, un baño equipado, agua fría/caliente, suministro de gas natural, una cocina completamente equipada y una heladera para que puedas almacenar tus alimentos. Con acceso a internet gratis.
    Tenemos algunas mantas para la cama, pero si traes una bolsa de dormir o una manta con vos, no viene mal.
    La casa está ubicada en el centro del pueblo, lo que significa que tendrán acceso a tiendas, kioscos y muchas otras comodidades.

    También, tenemos una mini cabaña ("matrimonial") para máximo 2 personas. Cama de 2 plazas, escritorio, con espacio personal y privado. Esta mini cabaña, esta ubicada en el mismo terreno de nuestra casa. A 4km del centro y menos de 1km del lago. Baño, cocina y living compartido. Acceso a internet gratis.
