The project are just a beautiful place inhabited by loving people and beautiful animals (dogs and cats)! I can highly recommend people to come here and feel the nature. Carlos and his parents Gladyz and Pedro are living and expanding their homestay with campsites and breathtaking views - you should come and help them. The work can be physical but it's rewarding and you can always contribute with own ideas :)

Had an amazing time, first experience with world packers and couldn't recommend it more. Carlos, Pedro & Gleydiz were so welcoming and kind. The food which was prepared for our meals was always so tasty, the work hours were as an agreed, hard but very rewarding work. The location itself is beyond beautiful in the Mountains outside of Bogota, with plenty of walks and fresh air. I hope to come back again in the future, not a single complaint. Thank you to the host for an incredible experience.

This peaceful farm in the Colombian mountains is the perfect volunteer spot. We worked five hours daily and had the rest of the day to relax or explore. The air is fresh, the views are stunning, and the gardens offer great spots to unwind. The buildings are full of beautiful art, and Wi-Fi and amenities are excellent. Carlos, Gleydiz, and Pedro are warm and welcoming, and the animals are adorable. The property is close to nearby towns, a waterfall, and a lagoon. Just a few hours from Bogotá, I'll definitely return!

Spending some time in the project has been an amazing experience. Carlos, Gleydiz and Don Pedro are incredibly welcoming and made me feel at home from the very beginning. The views are stunning and the food we were given was always delicious. There are plenty of spaces to relax around the finca after work in the morning, as well as areas to explore nearby (waterfall, magic tree, green lagoon and villages of Ubalá, Gachetá and Gachala). Another plus are the really friendly cats and dogs on the farm that were so nice to be around too :) Could not recommend this position enough!
