Description
We are a young family of three: Francisca (32), Matilde (4), and Jose (30). Francisca is a yoga instructor and artisan of stoneware ceramics, Jose is an instructor and guide of adventure tourism such as kayaking and rafting, and Matilde is a girl who only plays, learns, and enjoys the outdoors.
We have been living in Patagonia (close to La Junta town) on the banks of the Palena River for a year in our motorhome and we have a life project in this place, surrounded by nature and the forest. We are currently in the process of setting up this place and will soon build our house, so there is a lot of work to be done on the site, from chopping firewood, cleaning branches and trunks, making trails, building and moving wood, creating and maintaining the garden, feeding the chickens, and many other activities.
We do not have the infrastructure to accommodate guests, so sleeping in a tent is the option for those who want to stay with us. We have a cesspool toilet. We have spring water for drinking and electricity from solar panels. The phone and internet signal are limited, but basic communication via WhatsApp works well.
We've been learning how to do all the things we need, and we're very happy to share our knowledge as much as learn from those who want to participate and share their knowledge.
If you're interested in learning more and/or coming to stay with us, don't hesitate to contact us!
Somos una joven familia de 3: Francisca (32), Matilde (4) y Jose (30). Francisca es instructora de yoga y artesana en cerámica gres, Jose es instructor y guia de turismo aventura como kayak y rafting y Matilde una niña que solo juega, aprende y disfruta la vida al aire libre .
Vivimos hace 1 año en la Patagonia (cerca del pueblo de La Junta) a orillas del río Palena en nuestra motorhome y tenemos un proyecto de vida en este lugar en medio de la naturaleza y el bosque. Actualmente estamos en la etapa de acomodar este lugar y próximamente construir nuestra casa por lo que hay muchas labores que realizar en el sitio, desde cortar leña, limpiar ramas y troncos, hacer senderos, construir, mover madera, hacer y mantener la huerta, alimentar las gallinas y muchas otras actividades.
No tenemos infraestructura para alojar personas, por lo que dormir en carpa es la opción para quienes quieran quedarse con nosotros, contamos con un baño de pozo negro. Tenemos agua de vertiente para beber y electricidad de paneles solares. La señal telefónica e internet son limitados pero para comunicaciones básicas a través de WhatsApp funciona bien.
Nosotros hemos ido aprendiendo a hacer todas las cosas que necesitamos y estamos muy felices y por compartir nuestro conocimiento y también de poder aprender de quienes quieran participar y entregar sus saberes.
Si te interesa saber más y/o venir a quedarte con nosotros no dudes en escribirnos!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The idea is to share our experience and knowledge of rural life, focusing on permaculture, construction, tool use, sports (kayaking, paragliding, yoga, and others), and to learn from the experience and knowledge of those who join this project. We also hope to be able to learn languages as well as teach our own language.
La idea es poder compartir nuestra experiencia y conocimiento de la vida de campo enfocada en la permacultura, construcción, uso de herramientas, deportes (kayak, parapente, yoga y otros) asi como aprender de la experiencia y conocimientos de quienes se sumen a este proyecto.

Accommodation
Since we live in a small motorhome, we don't have enough space inside to accommodate workawayers, so camping is the best option for accommodation. We provide a tent, sleeping mat, sleeping bag, blankets, pillows, and extras to ensure the most comfortable stay possible. Drinking water comes from a spring, electricity comes from solar panels, and the bathroom is a cesspool. Regarding food, the idea is to provide daily meals with the family and cook together whenever possible.
Dado que vivimos en una pequeña motorhome no tenemos espacio adentro para alojar workawayers por lo que para el alojamiento la mejor opción es acampar. Nosotros disponemos de carpa, colchoneta, saco de dormir, frazadas, almohadas y extras para brindar la mayor comodidad posible en el lugar de descanso. El agua para beber es de vertiente, la electricidad de paneles solares y el baño es de pozo negro.
Respecto a la alimentación la idea es poder ofrecer las comidas diarias junto a la familia y poder cocinar en conjunto cuando sea posible.
