    Hello we are Laura and Jazmin
    I make handmade jewelry with natural stones in metal and the macrame technique, I work with leather, I am a professional dread maker, a fire juggler and creative things are very easy for me.
    I work virtually so I can manage my time freely.
    My house is not my own, I rent it, I am on the second floor, where our home and workshop are, currently only the two of us live.
    We are very happy to receive friends from the world.
    Before I traveled all over South America, now I go out a few months a year.

    The city is called Trujillo, I live in Huanchaco which is 25 minutes away by bus, the cost is 2.50. Huanchaco is the cradle of surfing so there is plenty of opportunity for you to learn to surf, ride a caballito de totora and enjoy many sunsets in front of the sea.
    You can go for a run on the beach. You can visit archaeological places like Chan chan, the huaca of the sun and the moon, lady of cao.
    We also have places with small waterfalls to hike for a day and return at night.
    If you like you can visit the Sierra Liberteña, with hot springs.
    I must also add that the atmosphere is like family, not like a job 💝
