    Description

    I am Emeline, an island French woman, I have been living in Colombia for 5 years and since April 2025 I live in my Casa made in bioconstruction thanks to local workers and volunteers.

    The Valley I live in is very peaceful, we arr a community of neighboors with very interesting projets (bambou architectes, cacao farm..) and a cristalline river !

    The projects are to build a little cabin for guests and volunteers, expand the culture crops and do a little bit of everything !

    Are you ready ?
