    Description

    URGENT :

    Looking for someone for babysitting, cooking and gardening from beginning of January to February.
    ///

    I am a French expat who has called San Agustín home for 8 years. I live here on this beautiful farm with my two young daughters, balancing the quiet life of the countryside with the rewarding work of the land.
    ​The farm is a labor of love. I manage one thousand coffee trees, which keep me busy year-round with harvesting, cleaning, and pruning. Alongside the coffee, I manage a private cottage that I rent out to travelers seeking peace, and I tend to a vibrant garden of flowers that require constant care and attention.
    ​
    The site is a sanctuary of silence and nature. From my terrace, we have identified more than 30 species of birds, making it a paradise for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Life here is shared with my three loyal dogs and two cats, who are very much part of the family.

    As I manage the plantation and the tourism aspect on my own, I am always looking for a helping hand. Whether it's in the coffee groves or keeping the gardens beautiful, I welcome people who appreciate nature, hard work, and the tranquil pace of rural Colombia
