Descripción
We are a couple Kadir and Silvia, living in the mountains with our 10 dogs and 8 cats. This is our private shelter, as co- founders of a charity organization which helps spaying and rescuing animals in the village, we have a lot of work to do and therefore we need help with our shelter, general maintenance and garden.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
You can learn about gardening and plants. How to deal with many animals at the same time and help with animals and local people. We organize spaying campaigns regularly and as far as you are with us, you can help on such an event. We are a mixed couple (Bolivian & German) and we can help you with practicing Spanish.
Ayuda
We have plenty of work to do. Help us with the dogs (prepare their food, feeding, playing, cuddling, cleaning). Care for the dogs and cats when we have to go to the town. Help us with our activities with the animals in the village, feeding stray dogs/cats, helping in spaying campaigns which our place organizes (we are co-founders of the organization). If you like to help animals and have a good vibration, then our home is the right place for you.
We also have a garden and have a lot of plants, herbs etc. which needs care and water. We have bought this land and it was empty. We have started reforestation and planting fruit trees. Our house is an ecological farm and we have a dry toilet and water is very precious. We need some help with small construction projects, digging or craft works. If you like to be in the nature, 9 km from the village, then you are on the right spot here. We have the view on El Fuerte Ruin and is a quiet and wonderful place at almost 2.000meters altitude
