La experiencia

Mariel (33) and Mariano (38) live in Villa de Merlo, San Luis, Argentina, a peaceful town with a great microclimate, surrounded by nature and mountains. After traveling to 49 countries as digital nomads, they settled in Merlo 6 months ago. They need help with gardening and basic carpentry, offering food and accommodation. The town offers cultural activities, holistic practices, and trekking options, and is in front of the mountain.

Programa detallado

We’re seeking a dedicated volunteer to help us primarily with our garden and some basic carpentry tasks. Having gardening knowledge is essential, and if you have skills in carpentry or construction, that would be a significant bonus. You will work about 4 hours a day, 5 days a week, and together we will share daily household tasks, including cleaning, cooking, washing dishes, and laundry. We ensure that food supplies will always be available for you.

In return, you can expect a welcoming atmosphere where you can immerse yourself in the Argentine culture. We’re eager to have conversations in Spanish and teach you the unique Argentine dialect. We'll share our favorite local music and films, and provide insights into our rich culture through anecdotes from our extensive travels. You can also look forward to visiting cultural events and discovering hidden gems in the region.

Reglas

We can offer you a stay in Mariano’s studio, which has a bed with a new mattress and a comfortable space for you to store your things. The only requirement is that you leave the room by 8 a.m. since that’s when he starts work. During the day, when you're not working, you can relax on the couch in the living room or in our lovely hammock in the yard.

You’ll also have access to sheets, a towel, a washing machine, and Wi-Fi (although we’d prefer if you avoid video calls or other high-data activities while we’re working).

For now, we’re only hosting one volunteer at a time (whether male or female). Before confirming, we do require a video call so we can get to know each other.
