  Minimum stay one week please.
  No internet at the property, closest 25 km away.
  Please we ask you to cook your own meals. Big comfortable kitchen provided.

  Help

  Good attitude is the most important trait, as we can adjust workload to your skills.
  Example of chores: varnishing log cabin, outdoor gardening and household duties (cleaning, cooking)
  Work not complicated at all.
  Friends visit us often, so help with them is also appreciated.
  No smoking in the house please, OK outdoors.
  We are quite independent and prefer people with positive and easy going attitude.
  We love nature and sports in all its forms, why Patagonia otherwise?
  He/she who rushes in Patagonia is wasting his/her time,
  Happy travels!
