The Experience

Hi, we are a Colombian family looking for someone who enjoys learning about new topics in the countryside. You will have a house available for you and other volunteers, you will probably share a room (rarely) and common areas, you will get to know the Coffee Axis and we will teach you our culture. You don't have to be an expert in these topics, just be very willing and bring energy to explore places. We look forward to meeting you.

Estuve en la casa, una finca hermosa en Circasia donde se respira calma y buena vibra. Amé bajar naranjas directo del árbol y convivir con gallinas, conejos, patos, perros y un gato súper fresco. Hicimos un booth fotográfico inspirado en una casa tradicional, y me tocó restaurar y pintar una puerta antigua (sí, con pintura de aceite). Todo está cuidado con tanto amor que dan ganas de quedarse a vivir. Un lugar real, bonito y lleno de vida en pleno Quindío.

Thank you, Angie, for trusting us. We hope many more volunteers have the opportunity to learn about Circasia Quindío's ecological processes and culture. We send you a hug and hope you return soon.
