Toda mi experiencia fue súper buena. Emilia es una mujer muy amable y siempre está riendo y sonriendo. Su casa está en Tuta, un pueblito que queda a treinta minutos de Paipa. Su casa fue muy cómoda y limpia, y también tiene una gata tan linda. Ella me dio cincuenta pesos para el bus a y desde Paipa — tomaba treinta minutos y llegaba con mucha frecuencia. Paipa es muy tranquilo y no hay otros extranjeros, y definitivamente no hay monos como yo. Pero no fue una mala cosa — toda la gente fue acogedora. Los otros profes son muy geniales también y los estudiantes querían aprender en serio.

Mi tiempo en la escuela fue de lo más lindo para comenzar mis voluntariados en Colombia! Boyacá es un lugar lleno de hermosos paisajes y naturaleza! Emilia te recibe desde el primer día con una sonrisa y te hace sentir como en casa <3 yo llegue a la escuela para ayudar con las redes sociales, los horarios son bastante flexibles y el trabajo es tranquilo! Recomiendo mucho esta experiencia y más si estás buscando escaparte un poco de la ciudad :)

My experience at the school was incredible! The instructors and students were welcoming, motivated and kind! My host, Emilia, was amazing. She invited me to restaurants, cafes, and I even met some of her family members, which allowed me to immerse myself in the culture of two beautiful countryside towns in Colombia: Paipa and Tuta. Paipa and Tuta are both peaceful, scenic towns. Though I volunteered for a short time, I am so grateful for the memories and friends that I made during my stay!!

Staying with Emilia and working in the school was an amazing experience. Paipa is a small, calm town, not the place to go if you're looking for a party, but if you are looking for a place to relax in nature, and contribute to a meaningful project this is the one! Working with the students in the center was a great experience for me.

Teaching the students at the school in Paipa was a highly rewarding experience. The other teachers were welcoming and the host, Emilia, was always bubbling with joy and kindness. I would go back in a heartbeat 🙂

Emilia is a super enthusiastic, kind and helping person, but she also gives you a lot of freedom, responsibility and trust. I didn't only feel well treated but respected too. You will be living on the countryside between the cows and the trees. It is a really beautiful and peaceful place. There is a village not far away and maybe Emilia could even help you to get access to a bike.

Spent a month with Emilia at the school and the time flew by! I stayed in her home in Tuta, and we drove to Paipa most days (or took the bus) to teach lessons, rotating between morning and afternoon classes. I also got to volunteer at a private school on Tuesdays which was super fun. Emilia was a wonderful host that showed me the best of Boyoaca and more. Gracias su merce!

Emilia was the perfect host and what she created with the school is wonderful. Her energy and work ethic are admirable and she is a breath of fresh air. The students are amazing! Tuta, where the house is located is a very peaceful and lovely place to get in touch with nature (and the neighbouring cows as well as the cute neighbour dogs!) and Paipa where the language centre is, has a bit of everything and is very well connected to other cities and places to explore. Make sure you spend some time visiting the thermal pools and walk around the local lake also. Emilia, thank you for everything!

Emilia is probably one of the most wholesome and pure people I've met so far! Very understanding, adaptive and willing to include you in activities or change plans to give travellers the room to visit other places and see more of Colombia! Tuta(York), the village we we're staying at wasn't the most active so like others have said, don't chose this if you're in it for the night life but for someone who wants to have a calm stay and just enjoy nature and the moment I wholeheartedly recommend! Loved it!
