It’s always great when we have a new volunteer on La Margarita. Exciting for them and exciting for us. Exciting for us because its always great to see what new ideas they can offer us to improve La Margarita and what part of their culture they can introduce to the estancia. Just arrived on La Margarita is Geraldine Portier and a big blog welcome to her. All the way from France she has worked and studied in the hotel business for a few years. A few months ago she told her parents she was off to explore Argentina and America “what said her parents that’s miles away” “ doesn’t matter I’ m off” she said and packed her bags and waved “au revoir” to France for six months. After some travelling around for a few months she decided that she would love to be a volunteer somewhere for three months. She sent us an email saying that she spoke adequate Spanish, had lots of experience with horses and that she cooked a great crepe! – well of course she does she comes from near the Lyon region of France which is one of my favorite locations in the world having lived there for a number of years and tasted the wonderful food from the region many times - so that clinched it . We meet her liked here and she got the gig. She has been on La Margarita with La Casa Rosa our self catering rooms full and she has had her work cut out translating and riding out with the guests but she sailed through her first ten days - bravo . From the look in the photo it looks as though she has adapted the gaucho way of life quickly and we all get some great crepes to eat every now can again – que rico
Welcome Geraldine and enjoy your stay with us
