  Description

  We live on a hobby "farm" (less than a hectare!) with our animals, overlooking valleys and La Campana National Park, 2 hours from Santiago. Our common language is Spanish and we expect everyone to communicate in Spanish, at least to the best of your ability.

  You will need to be SUPER unwavering in your refusal to go circular dancing, or you'll be out and about once or twice a week bailando danzas circulares!

  Aide

  EDIT - since the horrific fires in the Viña del Mar region in February 2024, we are hosting a family who lost their house in the wildfires. They will be with us until their new house is built. As a result we have a very full house and only want volunteers who are self-starters, hard workers, good cooks and/or handymen.
  --------------------------------------
  You will be responsible for caring for our pets and watering fruit trees. To dispel any notions of glamour, this is mainly dirty work. We have "parcela clothes" including footwear for communal use.
  
  Feeding and watering the animals, bathing drying and brushing dogs who can't get enough love and attention, October shearing/dagging sheep by hand.
  
  Daily cleaning of drinking water troughs, buckets, small containers for hens, geese, cat, dogs, sheep, goats.
  
  Cleaning goose pond, chook house, dog dormitories, kitty litter, stock shelter. Replenishing hen bedding. Picking up dog poo.
  
  Watering fruit trees and vines, gardening, odd jobs around the parcela, gathering eggs before the dogs steal them. Our animals are all pets.
  
  We especially want and need you if you have carpentry or house-painting skills!!
  
  WE ONLY RECEIVE VOLUNTEERS WITH GOOD CHARACTER REFERENCES, whether from WorkAway hosts or elsewhere.

  Hébergement

  We love good food, but we're not good cooks (or we're lazy!!) .... you will be very welcome to cook for us all. We eat when we're hungry, sleep when we're tired, the only time the clock rules is when it's time to put the livestock and poultry to bed before dark. If you're allergic to cats, we're not for you.
  We have a converted container bedroom and ensuite bathroom (2 single beds) for volunteers.
  Cable TV, Netflix.

  Autres infos...

  There are a couple of local buses daily to Villa Alemana, 1km walk from our home. From Villa Alemana there are buses and metro to Valparaiso or Limache. Travel time to Olmué ½ hr, Viña del Mar ½ hr, Valparaíso (¾ hr), La Campana National Park (1 hr). When you arrive and leave we'll pick you up/drop you off at the regional bus stop (2 hours from Santiago).
  
  We're 20km from the nearest night-life, and we don't run an all-night pick-up service! So if you're young you might feel cut-off from partying.
