🌎 English Version
Who We Are
We are a warm and cheerful Colombian family: dad (Ricardo), mom (Amparo), our three kids (Luisa, Isabella and Felipe), and the grandparents (Lina and José). We are kind, happy, and hospitable people who dream of learning English, meeting new friends, discovering other cultures, and sharing our own.
That dream inspired us to open a small English school. For us, English is not only the universal language, but also a bridge to the world. We believe it should be possible for everyone to learn it, so we created this project 4 years ago. Since then, we’ve had the joy of welcoming more than 170 volunteers from different nationalities, and it has been a beautiful experience of cultural exchange, learning, and friendship.
What Volunteers Do
Volunteers help teach English from Monday to Friday, 3 hours a day (about 15 hours per week). Classes are held outdoors in covered spaces, with motivated students from our community.
The rest of the time is free: you can swim in the pool, go hiking, practice yoga, ride a bike to the town, or simply enjoy the calm atmosphere of the countryside. Guamal is a very small town, and you won’t find other foreigners here — which makes it the perfect place to practice Spanish with locals and immerse yourself in Colombian culture.
Life with Us
We live on a small farm in Guamal, Meta, about 3 km away from the town. From our house to the town, you can go walking, by bicycle, tuktuk, or taxi — whichever you prefer. Our home is surrounded by nature, fruit trees (oranges, tangerines, lemons, mangoes, zapotes, avocados, bananas, papayas, guamas, arazá…), and our friendly pets (dogs and cats that stay outside the house).
We offer:
2 spacious bedrooms with comfortable beds: each has 1 double bed + 1 bunk bed (up to 3 or 4 people per room).
🛏️ 2 spacious bedrooms (each with 1 double bed + 1 bunk bed → up to 3 or 4 people per rooms
🚿 Private bathrooms
🥗 Healthy breakfast every day
🍳 Equipped kitchen
🏋️ Spaces to exercise
🏊 Swimming pool
🔥 BBQ area
🧺 Laundry
🚲 2 bicycles (not the best, but useful for town)
📖 Optional private Spanish lessons with a trained teacher (extra cost)
🚫 No hallucinogenic substances allowed.
At home, you can join us for family games, fun conversations, delicious Colombian meals, or a cozy campfire under the stars.
Important Details
Minimum stay: 1 month (to keep a stable schedule for our students).
Bus from Bogotá to Guamal: ~4 hours, cost 52,000 COP (2025). Villavicencio also has an airport nearby.
We are looking for responsible, sociable, patient, and tolerant volunteers who love sharing their language, culture, and time with our community.
No teaching degree required — just motivation and kindness.
We’d love to welcome you into our family, share experiences, and learn together. ❤️
Versión en Español colombiano
Quiénes Somos
Somos una familia colombiana alegre y acogedora: papá (Ricardo), mamá (Amparo), nuestros tres hijos (Luisa, Isabella y Felipe) y los abuelos (Lina y José). Somos personas amables, alegres y hospitalarias, con el sueño de aprender inglés, conocer amigos, descubrir nuevas culturas y enseñar la nuestra.
Ese sueño nos llevó a abrir una pequeña escuela de inglés. Creemos que el inglés no solo es el idioma universal, sino también un puente al mundo. Nuestro proyecto nació hace 4 años y desde entonces hemos recibido a más de 170 voluntarios de diferentes nacionalidades, con quienes hemos compartido aprendizajes, culturas y grandes amistades.
Qué Hacen los Voluntarios
Los voluntarios enseñan inglés de lunes a viernes, 3 horas al día (unas 15 horas por semana). Las clases son al aire libre, pero en espacios cubiertos, y están dirigidas a estudiantes de nuestra comunidad que tienen muchas ganas de aprender.
El resto del tiempo es libre: puedes nadar en la piscina, hacer caminatas, practicar yoga, usar la bicicleta para ir al pueblo o simplemente disfrutar de la tranquilidad de la finca. Guamal es un pueblo muy pequeño, aquí no encontrarás otros extranjeros, lo que lo convierte en el lugar ideal para practicar español con los locales y vivir una verdadera inmersión cultural.
La Vida con Nosotros
Vivimos en una finca pequeña en Guamal, Meta, a 3 km del pueblo. Desde nuestra casa hasta el pueblo puedes ir caminando, en bicicleta, en tuktuk o en taxi, como prefieras. Nuestra casa está rodeada de naturaleza, árboles frutales (naranjas, mangos, zapotes, aguacates, papayas, guamas, arazá, entre otros) y algunos animales de compañía como perros y gatos (que no entran a la casa).
Te ofrecemos:
2 habitaciones amplias con camas cómodas: cada una tiene 1 cama doble + 1 camarotes (capacidad de hasta 3 o 4 personas por habitación).
Baño privado.
Desayuno saludable todos los días.
Cocina equipada.
Espacios para hacer ejercicio.
Piscina.
Zona de asados.
Lavandería.
2 bicicletas (no son las mejores, pero sirven para ir al pueblo).
Posibilidad de clases privadas de español con profesor capacitado (con costo adicional).
no consumo de sustancias alucionogenas.
En casa podrás compartir juegos en familia, charlas divertidas, comidas típicas colombianas o disfrutar de una buena fogata bajo las estrellas.
Detalles Importantes
Permanencia mínima: 1 mes (para mantener la continuidad de los estudiantes).
Transporte: desde Bogotá hasta Guamal el viaje dura unas 4 horas en bus, con un costo aproximado de $52.000 COP (2025). Villavicencio también tiene aeropuerto cercano.
Buscamos voluntarios responsables, sociables, pacientes y tolerantes, con ganas de compartir su idioma, su cultura y su tiempo con nuestra comunidad.
No necesitas ser profesor profesional, solo entusiasmo y disposición para enseñar.
Queremos invitarte a vivir esta experiencia, conocernos, aprender juntos y recibirte como parte de nuestra familia. ❤️Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
