    Description

    We have a country home in Barichara, Santander, where my wife and I (both 44, with no children) live alongside our 7 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 horses. Our 15,000 m² property features mandarin, mango, and lemon trees, and we would love some help maintaining and improving the space. We are located just 5 km from what is considered the most beautiful town in Colombia, enjoying a fantastic climate and a very safe environment. We offer a fully equipped guest house and shared amenities, including a swimming pool and social areas. We are certain you will love the canyon views and spending time with our canine, feline, and equine family.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Our farm is located on a mountain overlooking the Suárez River canyon in Barichara, Santander; we enjoy a 360-degree view of a beautiful landscape where we live alongside the local wildlife.
    We would love to practice languages, share experiences, and engage in a cultural exchange. We are a couple of city dwellers who, four years ago, traded concrete for nature and are learning every day what it means to live off the land. Our home is an adventure shared with seven dogs, three cats, and two small horses. We would love to learn from people who know how to start and maintain a vegetable garden, teach us more about the land, and help us improve our trees and surroundings. In return, we offer accommodation and meals, as well as a wonderful friendship and plenty of love for all the animals that visit us.
