Airport pick up

• I will arrange your pick up from the airport. The airport is 2 to 3 hours away from our farm. I can also arrange a pick up from the city of Medellin in the El Poblado neighborhood. The cost of this ride varies, but will be around $120 for 4 people. Because the group is small if you plan to arrive from the airport in the 12pm-3pm range on the 13th, I can arrange for you all to ride from the airport together. 

• If you would like to go to Medellin before or after our retreat- I can have the driver meet you in El Poblado park. 

• The cost of this ride will range between $30-$50 dollars each way if you arrive the same time as the others. By yourself, it will be possible to find an $80 ride (which i will also organize for you)

• If you are a seasoned traveller: theres also an option to take a bus from Medellin to Fredonia which costs about $10, and then a jeep from Fredonia to our farm will likely cost about $10 more dollars.

• Do NOT stress. I have done this travel many times in many ways. I will be able to instruct you clearly and will be with you each step of the way.

Why Colombia?

The views are spectacular. The nature- including the mountains, waterfalls, flowers, plants, fruits, and wildlife are breathtaking. We see toads, lizards, beautiful insects, hummingbirds, and birds that are so vastly different than in the states. All of these new and beautiful elements of the earth help enhance present moment awareness.  There is a lot that can be learned from visiting a different culture. All of the people we interact with- the drivers, the farmers, the people assisting at the house, the people who come to share their offerings with us are Colombian. This gives you the experience of seeing a new way of life, hearing a new language and expanding your mind. Stepping out of your current culture, can help you see yourself without all the labels you've put on yourself for who you think you should be, and find who you truly are.
