cabin offer in Chile-reworded ;-)

Once in a lifetime opportunity to dog sit at Lorraine's cabin overlooking the Pacific Ocean, 3 to 6 weeks, starting mid-December! This is now a second home to many on the HUBB. :-)

Bump for Lorraine.

Righto people I will chime in here, if you a wanting a tranquil piece of paradise for R & R don't think twice, we stayed with Lorraine and I can tell you the place is awesome and the dogs beautiful by looks and manors, not to mention loving.

Sip a wine or two looking over the ocean that is right in front of you, you will realize you are alive.

We look forward to going back

Cheers Andi

Hey Lorraine,

We might be interested, we are currently in Chile, camping in Pucon. I wish I saw your message earlier! Whereabouts in Chile is the cabin?

Regards,
Matthew

Two hours north of Santiago! You'd have to back-track. But could be well worth it!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
