  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Life in San Miguel is an eye opening experience, for it is here that you will discover a culture at the cusp of civilization and raw nature. Emersed within this off-grid community, it is easy to realize that technology is not dictated by time, but, rather by location. Learning to appreciate the necessities of life is well practiced here.

  Spanish in Costa Rica is quite unique, but I'm getting the hang of it.

  Alojamiento

  Enjoy 8 acres of mountainous terrain and farm fresh produce with an original Tico farmhouse and a detached, open air cabin as your hub. Although rustic to the core, the farmhouse is equipped with simplistic solar panel electricity to accommodate some, but not all, modern technology. The kitchen has a refrigerator that can also be used as a freezer, but never both at the same time. Generally, I use it as a fridge. There is a countertop stove attached to a propane tank, as well as a place to cook with natural fire. The washer/dryer and bathroom would be shared. There is no hot water on tap and no WiFi. Cell phone service, however, is available.
