Pierre and the rest of the team were super welcoming and friendly. I had such a great time working here. If you want to improve your fluency, meet new people, and enjoy the beautiful town of Puerto Varas this is the way to go. The hours were fair and the work, while it could be difficult at times, was very well organized. I would recommend having a background in spanish as well as english to make learning the tasks and communicating with the guests easier. Thanks so much for the experience!
