Worldschooling Families
We invite families to come visit, learn about and live in the Ecuador Amazon Rainforest! There is so much to see and learn about in this unique sector of the world and we'd love to be your host! Imagine waking up to the sounds of birds chirping and the orange of the sunrise filling your room. You can help take care of farm animals or participate in various projects we are working on, swim in the stream, explore the jungle and surrounding plant life or spend time in a pavilion using the wifi. Our package offers you five activities each week, more or less an activity each day Monday through Friday (with some flexibility to account for weather or preferences). Our goal will be to provide some support and unique experiences while you are here with time to allow for the school and/or work you are doing on your own.
We have a family house featuring two bedrooms (one with a queen bed, the other with two bunk beds) and one bath. Electricity, clean (ozonated filtered) water, warm shower, small kitchen and living space. You can choose to have three meals a day in our dining hall or choose only two a day if you prefer to prepare your own food sometimes. Laundry services are available.
We are just over an hour from the nearest town (Loreto), a bus goes by in the morning and returns in the afternoon (a few dollars/person) or a taxi (for $20) can be arranged.
