    Description

    We are a Swiss Family who moved to Costa Rica in Sept. 2021. We bought a big Finca (35ha) and are still in the beginning phase of our project. We noticed that plans and visions change all the time, so we are going with the flow. At the moment we live in a small mountain village 5 min. away from our land. Every couple has it's own little house. We all have dogs. We have 3 horses and a pony in a wonderful stable. There is a cat that and 3 dogs who love to cuddle . We are spiritual, "conspiracy theorists", not vaccinated, vegan, open minded, non smokers, like to do sports and live together in alinment with nature.
    Please only apply if you are UNVACCINTED with Covid!!

    in our little village 30 minutes above Hojancha, the neighbours are very welcoming but only speak Spanish. You would be living among ticos, away from tourism and other activities. You would have a lot of time to yourself to connect with yourself and nature.
