Description
We are a group, hosting accomodation and farm, located 15 km outside of the city of Cochabamba, Bolivia.
It is hosted by Henry (Bolivian born, Belgian/American parents) and Carlijn (Dutch). Henry grew up here with his family, and together we moved back to Bolivia in 2020. We have 5 dogs, 3 cats and 7 chickens. Over the last few years, we have been renovating the group accomodation and starting the farm again.
One of our friends, Leah (Peru/UK) has been living with us since 2024. She will be looking after the property while we're traveling.
Furthermore, our friend Wilder (Bolivian) is another regular person you will see around a lot. He helps us from Monday through Saturday with construction projects, farming and landscaping.

Help
Currently, we are looking for someone (or a couple) that would like to look after our animals while we're in Europe for a few months. August through October.
Tasks:
- Being present. We are looking for someone to keep an eye on our animals, meaning spending a lot of time in and around the house. You can harvest fresh vegetables and collect eggs from our chickens.
- Feeding our cats, dogs and chickens and looking after their wellbeing.

Accommodation
You will be staying in our house while we're away, which is made of adobe walls. It is spacious, with multiple rooms, fast internet and lots of natural light. There is a private bathroom, bedroom and two additional rooms for you alone to use. You can use the kitchen to prepare your own meals with the vegetables that are provided for you.
The main house (group accomodation) is located right next to the smaller house where you'll stay. There will not be any activity there during your stay, so it is perfect for someone who loves peace and quiet, and loves to look after our pets.
