Descripción
Hola everybody,

We are a family-owned hostel about 50 km west of Medellín, Colombia.
Overviewing seven mountain ranges, the finca is surrounded by lush vegetation, freshwater creeks, other farms and plantations.
The hostel has five comfortable bedrooms, hammocks, cozy hangout spots and a big pool in a well-kept tropical garden full of fruits and flowers.
Guests come here to relax by the pool & the garden, swing in a hammock, have sunset beers & drinks, go on short & long hikes, explore the waterfalls in the backyard, get to know the typical Colombian country side and enjoy traditional food.

Expect a small business with a variety of Colombian and foreign guests.
You'll be in close contact with guests, other volunteers and employees.
There´s still plenty of space to retreat from the daily tasks and go for a walk by yourself, do your exercise and/or interact with the local community.

We offer free accommodation in exchange for 5 hrs of help per day, 2 days off per week.
We have a spacious, well equipped kitchen for guest/volunteer use.

What a beautiful experience!!! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with a lot of friendliness and openness. Communication with Felipe was great from the start (with our favourite phrase of his being "HAVE A SUPER GOOD DAY!") and our tasks at La Finca were varied, but always cool. They have a volunteer routine, which is very helpful as a… read more

We spent 3 very chilled weeks working at La Finca with Alexis and the team and really loved it! It's in a fairly remote location, about 30 minutes in mototaxi from the nearest town, which makes it a really great place to relax in nature and save some money. Alexis is such a warm and friendly person, we really enjoyed working with him the Colombian… read more

I stayed two weeks at the Finca and it was a good experience. The location is amazing, very close to waterfalls. Not to mention the beautiful sunsets over the mountains ! We were two volunteers when I was there so we could split the workload between the two of us, which was good. However sometimes it was a lot of work, especially when Alexis left… read more

Heather was a brilliant addition to the team here.

She is hard working and friendly and her chef skills came in very handy making jams and marmalades with fruit from our garden. Heather also managed the standard tasks with ease and was friendly and welcoming to guests.

We would 100% recommend Heather for another work away position.

Good luck… read more
