  Description

  I live in the mountains near San Martín de los Andes, in one of the most beautiful and peaceful areas of Patagonia. The house is surrounded by forests, lakes, and incredible scenery. Mount Lolog rises directly behind the property and Lake Lolog is only 300 meters away. Chapelco Ski Center is 30 minutes away and Lanín National Park is 20 minutes away. If you love nature, quiet spaces, and outdoor activities, you will enjoy living here.
  
  I have extensive experience hosting volunteers in Europe, where I managed a business and received hundreds of volunteers over four years. This profile is simply for my new personal project in Patagonia. I’m very used to welcoming travelers and creating a respectful, comfortable environment for everyone.
  
  I’m looking for help me with personal projects around the house and land, as well as a creative documentation project I’m building for myself. This may include:
  
  Creative help
  
  • taking photos or short videos of daily life, outdoor activities, and building projects
  • helping create simple guides or visual explanations of tasks
  • organizing digital material so I can preserve it and share it with family and friends
  • helping document Patagonian rural living for cultural and personal exchange
  
  Horse Care Help
  
  If you have experience with horses, that is a big plus. Tasks may include:
  • grooming
  • cleaning hooves
  • basic care and handling
  • helping with daily routines
  • assisting me in planning and maintaining a healthy environment for her
  My horse is calm and friendly, and anyone with a bit of horse experience will enjoy working with her.
  
  
  Hands on help
  
  • basic maintenance
  • general house tasks
  • cleaning
  • cooking
  • small woodworking tasks
  • helping build a barn for my horse
  • helping build a small sauna
  • simple improvements around the house
  • organizing tools and spaces
  • assisting with DIY projects
  
  This is ideal for someone who is organized, enjoys creating and documenting things, and appreciates a calm, nature-focused environment.
  
  You will have your own private bedroom and bathroom. The house is spacious with a shared kitchen, wood stoves, Starlink internet, a work desk, and everything you need to feel comfortable.
  
  In your free time, you can hike, trek, mountain bike, kayak, fly fish, ride horses, snowboard, ski, or enjoy stand-up paddling. I can provide equipment such as a kayak, a stand-up paddle board, fly fishing gear, snowboards, a mountain bike, and music equipment like a guitar and a DJ controller. You are also welcome to ride my horse.
  
  I am a 40-year-old finance professional originally from Argentina. After living in different countries, I chose to settle in Patagonia, where I always wanted to be. I enjoy cooking asados, staying active, exploring nature, and learning new skills. I can share knowledge about finance, Bitcoin, horseback riding, DJing, outdoor skills, and Argentine culture. I speak Spanish and English fluently, and basic Italian.
  
  This is a good place for someone who values nature, learning, cultural exchange, and simple mountain living. I enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds and sharing experiences while working on meaningful and practical projects together.
