  Description

  Good morning, I am Juárez a guy who lives with his dog Bluma, his two cats Isis and Pelón, hahaha... it seems crazy if it were not because all the animals are lovely. Due to an accident that I had, I cannot work and I was too close to being in a wheelchair, so now I try to take advantage of all the time I can, living intensely, travelling, knowing...
  Currently, I am working in a sustainable project of bio-construction. The two first projects are a tepee and a temazcal, although I also would like to build a yurt, a hobbit house, and a water collection system, among others.
  
  Muy buenas, soy Juárez un chico que convive con su perrita Bluma y sus dos gatitos Isis y Pelón jajaja... parece una locura si no fuera porque son encantadores los animales. Debido a un accidente que tuve, no puedo trabajar y vi muy de cerca el quedarme en una silla de ruedas, así que ahora intento aprovechar todo el tiempo que puedo en vivir intensamente, viajar y conocer.
  Actualmente estoy trabajando en un proyecto sostenible de permacultura, donde haré varios proyectos diferentes de bioconstrucción. Los dos primeros proyectos van a ser un tipi y un temazcal, aunque también tengo la intención de montar una yurta, una casa hobbit y un sistema de recogida de agua, entre otros.

  Accommodation

  The house is located 20 minutes walk from the town center and the beach, with the possibility of going down by car at many hours of the day, since I usually go down frequently, the vast majority of the countryside is surrounded, although it is still very dry, and you have to plant many plants, it has gardens and magnificent views of the mountains and the sea, it is a super quiet area. The room is independent from the house with the freedom to use the rest of the house, it has a living room, several gardens with plenty of places to sit, rest, read a book since there is almost always absolute silence, it has a lot of charm, it is full of energy thanks to its composition of minerals in the soil, it has a barbecue, hot water bathtub outside the house, hammocks, and parking for a car or caravan if necessary.
