  • Description

    Description

    Begining a construction and permaculture project in a beautiful farm in the country-side at Sumapaz in the Andes Region, central Colombia, with plenty of Flora and Fauna species. Two hours from Bogotá.

    Great weather, nature spot with forests, mountain environment, even though extra basic conditions since the house was recently demolished to build a new shelter.

    We count on water and electrical supply, veggie food as well as a welcoming place for those who might live an very simple life experience for some days.
