Description
Become part of the development of a sustainable living center in the Peruvian Amazon, located in the jungle of Tarapoto.
This is a personal project that is continuously growing; the vision is to work with nature and not against it: regenerating the forest, growing food that also serves as medicine, producing our own energy, practicing permaculture and syntropic agriculture, and building mainly with natural bioconstruction techniques.
It’s an authentic, simple, and real space. Here you’ll find jungle life, calm, mindful work, and constant learning.
I am currently developing a vegetable garden, a food forest, bioconstruction areas, water systems, trails, and community spaces — all with a vision of self-sufficiency and a deep connection with nature.
✨ People who come here learn:
🍃 Syntropic agriculture
🌿 Practical permaculture
🌱 Soil regeneration and management
🌾 Composting
🛖 Bioconstruction
🪵 Carpentry
🍳 Creative homemade cooking & Peruvian food
🌍 Techniques for simple and sustainable living in the jungle
We also share moments of calm and connection: hikes, bonfires, birdwatching, music, and time with the animals that live here.
Very close to the project, there are waterfalls and natural pools where we often go to swim and enjoy the water.
It’s the perfect environment for those seeking an authentic experience in the Amazon, learning by doing, and living in harmony with the forest.
My space is open to genuine people who want to learn, contribute, and be part of the process of creating a self-sustaining place in the jungle.

Hébergement
The accommodation is simple, natural, and in direct contact with the jungle. Everything is built with local materials such as wood, bamboo, and clay, creating an authentic and cozy environment.
🛏️ Rustic Private Room
A simple, comfortable room with good natural ventilation—perfect for resting at the end of the day. It’s a quiet space where you can relax and enjoy the calm of the surrounding forest.
🏡 Two-Story Structure
A spacious and airy building made mainly from bamboo. From here, you can appreciate a beautiful view of the mountains, and it’s common to spot birds and other animals from the area. It’s rustic, functional, and ideal for those who enjoy sleeping close to nature.
🏕️ Camping & Hammock Area
If you prefer camping, you can bring your own tent. There is also a covered area where you can hang your hammock. Spending the night here is an immersive experience, surrounded by the natural sounds of the jungle.
⭐ Basic Services Available
We offer a shared kitchen, common spaces for eating or relaxing, natural spring water, a dry toilet, and an outdoor shower. Everything is simple and made with care.
Everything here is simple and built with love. What truly matters is the connection with nature, the tranquility, and the real experience of being part of a growing sustainable project.

⏳ Recommended Duration
I recommend a minimum stay of 3 weeks so you can truly connect with the rhythm of the rainforest. The first week is ideal for adapting to the environment, and the following weeks allow us to go deeper into activities such as hiking, chocolate making, developing your own projects, and even visiting Río Abiseo National Park.
Staying longer allows you to learn more, relax, and enjoy the experience in a more complete and meaningful way.
📅 Monthly Experience Cycle
To keep the experience clear and harmonious for everyone, I organize arrivals at the beginning of each month. The ideal arrival dates are the 1st or 2nd, and preferably on a Monday or Tuesday, because those days allow us to start calmly, get to know each other well, and enter the rhythm of the place together.
We spend three weeks sharing learning, nature, and life in the rainforest, and the last week of the month I dedicate to my own rhythm: working on the land, resting, integrating the month, or continuing to share if someone feels aligned to stay longer. This monthly order helps everything flow naturally and keeps the energy light and clear.
✔️ If you need more specific information about living conditions or logistics, just send me a message — I’ll happily explain everything.
