  Descripción

  Hi there 🌿 and thanks for being here.
  
  I’m Jorge — a Colombian (paisa) social entrepreneur passionate about building spaces where people can live, work, and reconnect with what truly matters.
  
  Over the past years, I’ve been part of creating projects here in Jericó — experiences that have welcomed hundreds of travelers and volunteers from all over the world. Together, we explored a simple but powerful idea:
  👉 that nature, community, and meaningful work can transform the way we live.
  
  This became one of the first rural coworking experiences in Colombia — a place where digital nomads could work with high-speed internet while being surrounded by mountains, culture, and a slower rhythm of life.
  
  Today, we are entering a new chapter.
  
  We are reopening our volunteer program — but in a more intentional and personal way.
  
  Instead of a large coliving setup, we are currently working from a home-based space in nature, just outside Jericó. This is a place in evolution — where we are designing, organizing, and preparing the foundation for future retreats focused on bioconstruction, food, and regenerative living.
  
  This space is also home to Matías 🐾 (who quickly becomes everyone’s favorite teammate).
  
  Our current focus is simple:
  
  Taking care of the home
  Improving and designing spaces
  Light construction, painting, organizing
  Gardening and small cultivation projects
  
  We are not offering a “finished” place — but rather the opportunity to be part of building it.
  
  In exchange, we offer:
  
  Comfortable accommodation
  A peaceful environment in nature
  Reliable internet for remote work
  Spanish classes (4 times per week)
  And the chance to experience Jericó beyond tourism — through daily life, community, and creation
  
  This is ideal for people who enjoy:
  ✨ Calm over chaos
  ✨ Purpose over comfort
  ✨ Creating instead of consuming
  
  If you feel aligned with this stage — simple, real, and full of potential — you’re very welcome to reach out.
  
  We are opening this slowly, with the right people 🌱
  
  — Jorge

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Living here is not just about volunteering — it’s about understanding a place from the inside 🌿
  
  Jericó is more than a beautiful town. It’s a territory full of history, coffee culture, traditions, and people who have shaped life in the mountains for generations.
  
  By staying with us, you’ll have the opportunity to:
  
  🌎 Connect with the territory
  Discover hidden paths, viewpoints, and nature spots that most travelers never find
  Learn how to move around Jericó like a local
  Access trusted contacts for tours, experiences, and local businesses
  
  We’re always happy to share recommendations, routes, and connections so you can explore the region in a deeper and more authentic way.
  
  🌱 Learn by doing
  Basics of organizing and improving living spaces
  Introduction to gardening and small-scale cultivation
  Early steps into regenerative living concepts (what we’re building toward)
  🗣️ Language & cultural exchange
  Spanish classes (4 times per week)
  Daily interaction in both Spanish and English
  Understanding Colombian culture beyond tourism
  🧠 A different rhythm of life
  Slowing down and reconnecting with nature
  Experiencing a balance between independence and community
  Living simply, but with intention
  
  This is not a “touristic experience” — it’s a real immersion into daily life in the mountains, with the added value of being guided by people who have been developing projects in this region for years.

  We are reopening our volunteer program in a much more personal and intentional way 🌿
  
  Right now, this is a home-based project in nature, where we are building, organizing, and preparing the space for future retreats focused on bioconstruction, food, and regenerative living.
  
  The help we’re looking for is simple, hands-on, and meaningful:
  
  🛠️ Daily contributions (around 3 hours per day)
  Organizing and maintaining the house
  Cleaning and keeping spaces in harmony
  Painting and improving areas
  Light gardening and cultivation
  Supporting daily life at home
  Taking care of Matías 🐾
  🌐 Optional / complementary contributions
  Helping with small online tasks (content, ideas, organization)
  Language exchange (Spanish / English)
  Sharing any creative or practical skills
  
  Some days you may work alongside us, and other days you’ll be more independent, especially during short periods when I may be in Medellín working on other projects.
  
  This means we’re looking for people who are:
  ✔ Responsible and proactive
  ✔ Comfortable managing their own time
  ✔ Respectful of a calm home environment
  ✔ Happy being both in company and in solitude
  
  🗓️ Stay details
  Minimum stay: 1 week
  Contribution: ~3 hours per day
  Exchange includes accommodation + Spanish classes (4 times per week, 1 hour)

  Alojamiento

  You’ll stay in a comfortable private or shared room within the house, surrounded by nature 🌿
  
  This is a simple but cozy home — not luxury, but designed for calm, rest, and everyday living.
  
  One special part of this experience is that one of the rooms is still being designed and organized.
  This means you’ll have the opportunity to:
  ✨ Help shape the space
  ✨ Contribute ideas for layout and design
  ✨ Be part of creating a functional and beautiful environment
  
  If you enjoy interior design, organizing spaces, or bringing ideas to life, this can be a very rewarding part of your stay.
  
  The house includes:
  
  A shared kitchen
  Common areas to relax or work
  Quiet surroundings with views of nature
  
  This is a living space that is evolving — and you’re invited to be part of that process.

  Algo más...

  Jericó is not just a destination — it’s a place with a strong cultural identity and a living creative community 🌿
  
  During your time off, you can explore a town full of life:
  
  A vibrant main square with cafés, local markets, and traditional food
  Museums, cultural spaces, and live music
  Coffee culture in one of the most beautiful towns in Colombia
  
  But what makes this experience truly special goes beyond tourism.
  
  🌎 Access to a living network
  
  Through this project, you’ll be connected to a community of local creators and knowledge keepers, including:
  
  Artists and musicians
  Experts in archaeology and local history
  Gastronomy projects and farm-to-table initiatives
  Local guides who know the mountains, rivers, and hidden paths
  People working with ancestral and natural medicine traditions
  
  This means your experience can become much deeper — not just visiting, but understanding and connecting.
  
  🌄 Nature & exploration
  
  If you love the outdoors, this region offers:
  
  Endless hiking trails and mountain views
  Birdwatching and biodiversity
  Waterfalls and hidden natural spots
  Quiet spaces to reflect, rest, and recharge
  🚌 Getting around
  
  Jericó is well connected by bus to Medellín and other towns in Antioquia. Once here, most places can be explored by foot, local transport, or short rides.
  
  🌱 A place for impact
  
  This experience is not only about what you see — but about what you become part of.
  
  Everything we’re building is connected to a bigger vision:
  supporting local communities, creating opportunities in rural areas, and developing projects that respect both people and nature.
  
  If you’re curious, open, and willing to engage — Jericó can become much more than a stop in your journey.

  We offer a simple and comfortable setup for those who enjoy being close to nature 🌿 Our internet connection is powered by Starlink, which works well for general remote tasks like calls, messaging, and light work. It’s reliable most of the time, but as in any rural area, it can occasionally vary depending on weather or conditions. We also have a power backup system, so basic connectivity and daily activities can continue even during outages. Right now, this is not a full coworking space — it’s a home environment with quiet areas to focus, read, or work when needed. This experience is less about “perfect productivity” and more about: ✨ Living in nature ✨ Slowing down ✨ Contributing to something meaningful ✨ Finding a healthier rhythm between work and life If you’re looking for a peaceful place to stay connected while being part of a hands-on, evolving project — this could be a great fit.

  Matíass (6 años)

  Matías is part of the heart of this place.
  
  He’s a German Shepherd who has been with us since our Riverside Ecoliving days, and he’s grown up surrounded by people, nature, and community.
  
  Despite his size, he’s:
  ✨ Very calm
  ✨ Gentle and friendly
  ✨ Sweet and easy to be around
  
  He enjoys slow days, being close to people, and quietly observing everything that happens around him (like a true mountain guardian 🐕).
  
  Volunteers don’t need any special skills — just:
  
  Basic care and attention
  Enjoying his company
  Making sure he feels part of the daily rhythm
  
  If you like dogs, you’ll probably end up becoming good friends with him very quickly.
