    update july 2017
    thank you all!! who were here and those who requested to come.

    we received around 160 requests , 120 thru WA and 40 others in the past 9 months since october 2016 when we joined the site. we accepted 15 people , 12 with good to excellent performance, 3 not so good but lessons to learn.

    in april as 40 ppl wanted to come and we could not generate so much work, we offered lodge w 50% discount to cover costs and free activities, workshops, etc. more than 10 ppl came and we enjoyed some days together until now, and we are always open w the offer, come join the green in uy! :)

    saludos desde montevideo!! carlos

    - we are a green project in montevideo, a 1924 workers house, opened as lodge in march 2015 with many energy efficiency design features set when renovated that year, probably unique in uruguay. (like thermal insulation in all walls and ceilings/roof and even 1 bathroom on the floor!)

    - owned and managed by carlos, a uruguayan-italian architect/engineer w studies in mvd,uy and berlin,de.

    - we promote green practices and sustainability adapting them to uruguayan culture, including thermal confort thru energy efficiency, an organic orchard upcycling and repurpose workhshops etc. we receive students long term from march to december, normally a semester, and tourists in summer from december to march.

    ++ NOT a normal hostel, only 5 rooms, your hostel experience is only partly useful in summer DECEMBER TO MARCH! :-)

    shared 2 or 3 people room. total in the house average 6 ppl. in 5 rooms. 2 bathrooms. free use of the kitchen, washer, etc. patio with uy bbq - parrilla, garden w. fire-place-sunny terrace.

    ABOUT FOOD: for different reasons, we cant assure offering 100% of your meals. still we have a bread machine, so theres bread as healthy as it gets, and the basic ingredients for a "students diet" (for the ones who need it!) *️️️️️️️ like pasta, rice, etc, sauce, oil, etc.
    NORMALLY theres a good ambience and guests cook together and share food, but its spontaneous and not programmed.
