    Description

    We are a family living in the foothills of the Andes in the town of Chillepín. A rural area surrounded by vegetation and with rock art trails, near the Choapa River. This area is the narrowest stretch of land in Chile between the mountains and the sea, thus enjoying a privileged climate. We live a self-sustaining lifestyle based on harmony with the environment. Our focus is on promoting green construction, recycling, and local and ancestral history. We have some of the most beautiful skies for stargazing.

    We are currently finalizing our rural tourism and complementary therapies project, and we need help creating spaces such as landscaping, vegetable gardens, garden cleanup, and green construction.
    Here you will find a family atmosphere based on mutual respect and where we greatly value cultural exchange.


    Somos una Familia que habita en la precordillera de los Andes en la localidad de Chillepín. Un lugar rural rodeado de vegetación y con senderos de arte rupestre, cerca del río Choapa. Este lugar es el más estrecho del territorio Chileno entre cordillera y mar, por lo que posee un clima privilegiado. Experimentamos un modelo de vida autosostenible, basada en la armonía con el medio ambiente. Nuestros intereses están puesto en fomentar la bioconstrucción, el reciclaje y la historia local y ancestral. Contamos con unos de los cielos más hermosos para observar las estrellas.
    Actualmente estamos terminando nuestro proyecto de turismo rural y terapias complementarias, de las cuales necesitamos ayuda en la formación de espacios como paisajismo, huertos, limpieza de jardines y bio construcciones.
    Aquí encontrarás un ambiente familiar que se basa en el respeto mutuo y del cuál valoramos mucho el intercambio cultural .
