Program Details
Our proposal is to open the doors of our home in the hills of Valparaíso so you can live the city not as a tourist, but as part of our local community. We are looking for travelers with a collaborative spirit who want to immerse themselves in the porteño culture while helping us maintain the welcoming spirit of our home.
Activities & Shift
Living in our Valparaíso home means integrating into a shared rhythm of life. We seek a balance where your support is essential for the house to shine, without neglecting your purpose of traveling..
To make the experience fair and enriching, we establish a dynamic where your moments of presence in the house are complemented by ample free time so you can experience Valpo to the fullest.
Rules
To make the stay pleasant and the exchange work, we follow these essential points:
- Maintaining visual harmony and the cleanliness of shared spaces is not an obligation; it's the basis of our mutual respect.
- We are a community that values both social exchange and silence. Respecting quiet hours is key so that everyone enjoys the stay.
- Flexibility works as long as there is transparency. We organize ourselves by talking, so that your travel plans and the pace of the house are always aligned.
