  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  we are an Italian Peruvian couple, previously we lived in Lima, Italy and France. Here in Cocachimba you will exchange also with local people getting to know some of local culture and traditions (this is not Quechua, dont expect Cusco-like traditions). In this region lots of coffee cultivation, orchids, bird watching, waterfalls and Chachapoyas culture archeology. We are in the hearth of the Chachapoyas land (tropical Andes), average temperatures 14-26 degrees Celsius (not jungle, no vaccins needed, no dangerous mosquitos). With lots of archaeological sights, beautiful landscapes and birdwatching. We can offer experience in Peruvian culture and traditions, tourism orientation, lodge management, ecc.
  We are right below the Gocta waterfall and in the middle of the Utcubamba valley. There are plenty of treks you could do. Visits to waterfalls and caves. Chachapoyas archeological sites. we are located in a tiny town . Closer airport: 1 hour. closer bus station: 30 minutes.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  we have a good wi fi connection in most areas of the property but not all . I also work online. But considering that we are in the Peruvian Andes it could happen that it slows down , or that it stops if there is a energy shut down , but is real not frequent at all. Is good anyway to have a cell phone with some data for back up if possible (claro and Bittel work well here)
