    Description

    I live in the countryside 20 km from Colonia del Sacramento in a beautiful organically built house.
    We are starting with a new little house, the entire process will be guided by professionals with experience and desire to teach!
    Professionally, I am a commercial and sports sailor, I sail in Colonia del Sacramento mainly giving classes and also trips, we mostly work with the local public since our area has little nautical culture and I am inspired by the idea of ​​promoting it.
    My family lives very close to home, these are my parents and my younger sister in the neighborhood.
    We working at normal hours and at at good pace, with a good work and enjoyment environment.
    The surroundings of the house are super quiet and the beach is 3 km away, we have bikes than you can use ando also it’s very easy hitch-hike.

    Vivo en el campo a 20 km de Colonia del Sacramento en un linda casita de bio construcción. Estamos comenzando con un nueva casita, todo el proceso será guiado por profesionales con experiencia y ganas de enseñar!
    Profesionalmente, soy marino comercia l y deportivo, navego a vela en colonia del Sacramento principalmente dando clases y también paseos, mayormente trabajamos con publico local ya que nuestra zona tiene poca cultura náutica y me inspira la idea de fomentarla.
    Mi familia vive muy cerca de casa, esta mis padres y mi hermana menor en el barrio.
    Vamos a ser unas 5 personas en obra, trabajando en horarios normales y a buen ritmo, con un buen ambiente de trabajo y disfrute.
    El entorno de la casa es súper tranquilo y la playa está a 3 km, hay bicicletas y otros vehículos a disposición también.
