    Description

    We are a Colombian-French family and we live in a farm in San Agustin with our two little daughters.

    Charles works with a thousand coffee trees, so he always needs help to harvest, clean, prune, etc.

    Luisa is a chemical engineer, she has a natural cosmetics business, and sometimes need help for production of esencial oils.

    Furthermore we have two cottages we rent out for turism.

    The site is really peaceful and quiet. We observed more than 30 species of birds from the terrace!


    We share our place with 3 pretty dogs, 2 cats, 6 chickens and flowers that need a lot of attention and love :) :)

    -----------------------------------------------------

    Somos una familia colombo-francesa y vivimos en una finca de San Agustin con nuestras dos pequeñas hijas.

    Charles trabaja con más de mil cafetos, entonces siempre necesita ayuda para cosechar, limpiar, podar, etc.

    Luisa es ingeniera quimica y tiene un emprendiemiento de cosmeticos naturales. A veces necesita ayuda para producir aceites esenciales.

    Además tenemos dos cabañas que alquilamos al turismo.
