    Description

    My name is Olgui, I am starting my project of cabins and hostel in a small but quiet town, with more demand in summer. In the area we have a large production of delicious fruits and vegetables that we always bring home to enjoy. Hills to enjoy walks and the view of the valley. A river to practice different sports or just cool off during the summer.
    Throughout the year I am beautifying and working on different projects, since I like to reuse materials for construction and decoration.
    In my house we are 4, my parents and my son are there. Sometimes we are 6 when my daughter and her partner visit us.


    Mi nombre es Olgui, estoy comenzando mi proyecto de cabañas y hostel en un pueblo pequeño pero tranquilo donde se vive relajado, con más demanda en verano. En la zona tenemos gran producción de deliciosas frutas y verduras que siempre traemos a la casa para disfrutar. Cerros para disfrutar de caminatas y la vista del valle. Río para practicar diferentes deportes o sólo refrescarse durante el verano.
    Durante todo el año estoy hermoseando y trabajando en diferentes proyectos, ya que me gusta reutilizar materiales para contrucción y decoración.
    En mi casa somos 4,están mis padres y mi hijo. A veces somos 6 cuando mi hija y su pareja nos visitan.

    We are looking for people who like to be outside the house working in a relaxed but constant way on projects such as: wall insulation with plants; building furniture with recycled wood; beautifying the garden; digging a gutter for next winter.
    I am usually working in the yard during the day, so I will be present and accompanying.
