The Experience

Hola, tienes experiencia en reparación de embarcaciones, veleros, etc., Nos gustaría restaurar nuestro velero de fibra de vidrio. Es un microtoner 19 pies que requiere cariño y queremos poder navegarlo y disfrutar del lago. Se requiere experiencia en restauración de fibra de vidrio, pintura, reparación de maderas y aparejos. Nuestra idea es lograr tener el velero en el agua y navegando pero hay otras funciones que nos encantaría que apoyaras.

Fue una experiencia increíble, el lugar es hermoso, los anfitriones amables y pendiente de que te sientas bien, Cristian fue flexible sobre el tiempo inicialmente acordado y terminada la tarea asignada pude seguir explorando el lugar. Agradezco su hospitalidad y permitir compartir con la familia.

Mi primer voluntariado lo hice en el the lodge y me encantó el lugar además tiene vistas priveligiadas al lago Colbún y está rodeado de naturaleza. Mi habitación era muy linda y contaba con baño privado. Disfruté de actividades como caminatas , kayak y andar en moto . El ambiente es familiar y relajado, y el personal es muy simpático. Me entretuve bastante ayudando en la cocina y comiendo cosas ricas . Gracias a la ubicación del lodge pude ir a la nieve , zoológico, cascada invertida, embalse ancoa, termas , ir a ríos y visitar lugares muy lindos . Feliz y gratificante la experiencia ♥️

Mario, que rico saber que disfrutaste tu voluntariado. Y que buena opción que pudiste mobilizarte en tu moto a tantos lugares bonitos de la zona.

Suerte en todo.

Jules, para nosotros fue realmente muy entretenido conocerte y tu aporte en la cocina fue genial. Fuiste de mucha ayuda para Verónica y eso se agradece. Esperamos puedas volver como hablamos.

Un abrazo,

Foi minha 1 experiência na plataforma e foi muito boa. Os anfitriões são pessoas legais e o voluntariado é no meio da natureza. Fica pouco distante da cidade, mas se você quiser passar uns dias longe da cidade, apenas imersivo na natureza é uma ótima opção. Agradeço demais os dias passados lá. Abraços.

Stéfanni, muchas gracias por visitarnos y ser parte de nuestro equipo. Justamente nuestro Lodge busca que nuestras visitas y turistas logren una desconexión del día a día de las ciudades y se conecten con la naturaleza.

Te deseamos lo mejor, un abrazo de parte de todos en Lodge Colbún
