The Experience

We are a German/Colombian family of 3, Mom with a 4 year old son and 1 year old daughter. We love to share our jungle home with family people. Basically the volunteering consists of helping out with cooking lunch for all of us, spending quality time with my kids and some additional help around the house where needed. A quiet place surrounded by nature. There is a refreshing creek next to the house and the caribbean beaches 20 minutes away.

Mom is a super warm, affectionate and special person, like a guardian of this magical paradise in the jungle. She is very flexible with work and days off. The food is delicious and the children are wonderful and steal your heart; taking care of them was a pleasure and it never felt like work. Mom is a strong woman, with many stories and experiences to learn from. The garden and my little house were a dream, with the river, the beach and Tayrona nearby. I was very sad to leave and I hope to return. Thank you for everything! ❤️

It was my first volunteer experience at Wolparcker, and it was a very beautiful one. The place is beautiful: it allows you to connect with nature, enjoy the landscapes, the river, and the proximity to the sea.
I had a lot of fun playing with the children; their company is very special. The hostess cooks delicious food and is a very wise and kind person; she was always looking after me.
Additionally, you can visit many nearby places such as beaches, waterfalls, and Tayrona National Park.
All the beauty of life for them, always.

The place is beautiful, perfectly located, with rivers and greenery in every corner and the sea a few minutes away by public transport.\nAnne, Zoe, and Flor are a beautiful family unit! She is a brave and sweet woman, and with a lot of wisdom about life. The children are happy and loving.\nAs a nature and children lover, I enjoyed every single second I spent with them :)

Mi experiencia en la granja ha sido muy especial, ha sido uno de los lugares mas mágicos en los que he estado. El lugar está totalmente rodeado de naturaleza, así que si deseas un tiempo de desconexión es perfecto. Annie, y sus pequeños Zoe y Flor me han recibido con los brazos abiertos desde el primer momento. La comida es realmente un regalo de cada árbol de la finca así que es muy especial y nutritiva. Volvería sin dudarlo! Se que la vida solo tiene cosas lindas para ustedes! Gracias por todo y por todo su amor ❤️❤️
