  • Description

    Description

    We are a German-Nicaraguan family of five living together with our four-legged family members, volunteers, and guests in a peaceful and quiet mountain setting surrounded by nature.

    Over the years, we have built three houses on our farm and love creating with a variety of materials such as bamboo, wood, cement, recycled glass bottles, and old tires. More and more, we are moving toward natural and sustainable building techniques.

    Our farm is home to many fruit trees, medicinal herbs, and vegetable gardens. We are passionate about permaculture, and all our gardens are organically managed, with many plants self-seeding and thriving naturally. We grow bananas, coffee, avocados, mandarins, tomatoes, sweet peppers, a wide variety of herbs, and much more.

    We also share our farm with many animals, including chickens, cows, cats, dogs, and horses.

    The horses are the foundation of our livelihood. For those interested in natural horsemanship and the Classical Art of Riding, there are opportunities to experience life on our beautiful eco-farm and learn more about our philosophy and training methods.

    Please note that volunteering does not include free riding lessons or riding privileges. We also offer a separate horse internship program for applicants with a solid horse background. This internship requires a minimum stay of three months and provides a deeper immersion into horse care, training, and management.

    We are located on the mountainside above the small rural town of Tucurrique. The town can be reached within approximately 30 minutes on foot or by taxi for about 3,000 colones.

    Who We Are Looking For
    Tutor / Teacher for Our Children

    We are currently looking for a tutor or teacher to support the education of our two children, aged 11 and 12.

    The main subjects are:

    German
    Mathematics
    Science

    Teaching can be done in either German or English.

    We welcome applicants with a background in teaching, tutoring, homeschooling, education, or related fields. Current or former teachers are especially encouraged to apply.

    Our goal is to provide our children with structured and consistent learning support. We are therefore looking for someone who is patient, organized, reliable, and enjoys working with children.

    The position requires a minimum stay of 4 weeks, although longer stays are preferred as they allow for greater continuity in the learning process.

    What We Offer

    In exchange, you will become part of our family and international community, living on a beautiful eco-farm surrounded by nature, animals, and a peaceful mountain environment.

    You will have the opportunity to experience life in rural Costa Rica while contributing to our children's education and personal growth.

    We appreciate volunteers who are responsible, proactive, and have a positive attitude toward community living.
