    Description

    Hi,
    Our project is my childhood home where I grew up. My father built it himself. It is rustic but very cozy and located on a lovely, small island south of Puerto Montt and Chaiten.
    I realized that this island and house are a great place for tourism and wanted to develop it. However, I do want to take a different approach than most places in the region and make it fully environmentally friendly.
    I have worked on this dream for the last 3 years. Most of the basic work is completed now this year, so that I am staying to work fulltime from here and get this hostel running.

    I did study technical study tourism in chile. Thus, I have the know-how to carry out my idea. However, I could use some help from people who want to enjoy this amazing place with me and share a passion for nature and sustainable design.


    hola, mi proyecto es un hostal, es una casa de infancia donde yo viví y crecí, mi padre la construyo rústicamente, y acogedora, queda en una isla al sur de puerto montt y chaiten, con el paso del tiempo me di cuenta que este lugar tenia que ser para hacer turismo, pero distinto, amigable con el medio ambiente, llevo como 3 años con la idea y ahora este año pretendo quedarme y trabajar, aunque las condiciones climáticas no sean del todo favorables.
    actualmente vivo solo en la casa, por que necesito lograr llevar a cabo este pryecto y que funcione.
    estudie turismo técnico en un instituto de chile, y se como llevar a cabo mi idea, pero solo no podría lograrlo y por eso busco ayuda de gente que me pueda ayudar y disfrute del lugar y el compartir sanamente.
