    Description

    Hello my name is Narayana, I am 28 years old and I come from Germany. On my travels I discovered together with my best friend Bastian: Pichilemu, a small town by the sea 3 hours south of the capital of Chile: Santiago. Pichilemu is also known as the ‘surf mecca’ of Chile, as it is supplied with perfect waves almost all year round.

    Long story short: when we were there for the first time in 2019, we made a plan to buy a property and build a house one day. I then successfully completed my degree in architecture and Basti completed an apprenticeship as a carpenter.

    At the beginning of this year, 2024, the time had finally come for us to fulfil our dream: we bought a small property with a small existing house on it.

    We have big plans for the renovation and extension and therefore need active support!!

    (We speek English, Spanish and German)

    Hola me llamo Narayana, tengo 28 años y soy de Alemania. En mis viajes descubrí junto con mi mejor amigo Bastian Pichilemu, una pequeña ciudad frente al mar a 3 horas al sur de la capital de Chile: Santiago. Pichilemu también es conocida como la «meca del surf» de Chile, ya que cuenta con olas perfectas casi todo el año.

    Larga historia corta: cuando estuvimos allí por primera vez en 2019, hicimos un plan para comprar una propiedad y construir una casa algún día. Entonces terminé con éxito mi carrera de arquitectura y Basti completó un aprendizaje como carpintero.

    A principios de este año, 2024, por fin llegó el momento de cumplir nuestro sueño: compramos una pequeña propiedad con una casita ya existente en ella.

    ¡¡¡Tenemos grandes planes para la renovación y ampliación y por lo tanto necesitamos apoyo activo!!!
