  Descripción

  Our project is a small familial ecoproject located in the beautiful countryside of Perez Zeledon, Pacific coast of Costa Rica, the perfect place to connect with nature, earth & heart.
  This rural area is full of wildlife and birds and the weather is really sunny and pleasant during the day and cooler at night.
  
  The farm is right in the San Isidro valley, surrounded by a beautiful landscape of mountains and borded by the Pacuar river where we have a private beach to swim and chill. The closest town is San Isidro, 10 mins driving, and Dominical’s surf beach is 40 mins away. There are also beautiful places around to visit such as Tinamaste, Chirripo or Uvita for example.
  
  Our ecoproject is 2 years old, designed following the basics of permaculture with now 1 acre of syntropic agroforestry cultures (Syntropic AgroForestry System = SAFS), greenhouse, orchads and fruit trees.
  Our focus is to regenerate this former tobacco field to bring back as much biodiversity as we can and live in harmony with nature. We use the principles of Syntropic Agroforestry in our plantation design and we will be happy to share with you our knowledge and experiences.
  
  About us :
  
  We are Paz & Pancho, a couple from Chile, we moved to Costa Rica 3 years ago and felt in love with this beautiful area. We are willing to live in harmony with nature and to be part of the positive change we hope for this planet.
  We also have 3 young dogs, very friendly which are part of the Munay family.
  
  About our special space :
  
  - We have a large communal space to gather, play music, read, relax in the hammock with a tremendous view on the valley.
  - There are large wooden tables inside the house and on the ground floor, for group meetings and where you can have your own space to work if needed.
  - A large deck space to relax, dance, meditate or practice yoga.
  - A very spacious kitchen with all the facilities needed to express your cooking skills and creativity.
  - We created a mandala fire circle in front of the main house where we can have singing and prayers ceremonies.
  
  The minimum required stay is 2 weeks but we can be flexible depending on your personal situation and a specific help you can offer.
  
  Come volunteer with us to enjoy Costa Rica’s good vibes and meet nice humans from all over the world.
  
  Pachamama magic is waiting for you !
  PURA VIDA
