One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two summers ago, a group of friend from university and I went in North of Argentina, in Salta and Santiago chile to do of in a cooperation project.
The winter before going to Argentina. We met in the library for work in the project every friday for afternoon.
.
We wanted to design one module adaptable to any house. This module was a single space. We wanted that every family had a house with good conditions.
These families did not have nothing, his houses were handmade by themselves and coexisted with dogs. This houses didn't have doors and windows and with heavy soiling. Usually were big families, they had a lot of children.

Our idea was building these module with environmental technology, sand, gravel, a little concrete and water. Very easy handmade with a small machine it was.This experience was very rewarding for me and I will never forget, because We could help a little to this family to improve his life to this family.

During two weeks in september we went to humble neighborhood around Santiago Chile city. This project consist to build a small hibernaculum for a parish. This parish fed the homeless.We design a little hibernaculum and easy build with wood. That summer was very special for me and my friends because we had opportunities to help and know differents countries.
