Paula, Yupanqui and Hernando are incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about Colombia and fully experienced nature and rural life. I always felt taken care of and supported from the hosts, and there was a beautiful family atmosphere. I recommend this experience to people who want to learn about nature and wildlife conservation, challenge themselves with something new and really authentic.

It was a wonderful experience in every way—the people, the place, and nature. Their project is commendable, in its ways and its aims. I learned a lot and connected with many people. It is beautiful to see how projects are developed with such responsibility toward sustainable production, conservation, and environmental education.

It was a great experience! It was nice to be so connected with nature, to learn so many things about permaculture, bees, moths and biodiversity in general. I loved the coffee moment and the conversations with Paula and Yupanqui. Thank you for welcoming me to the little piece of forest that is their home.
