Because the farm has to move to another piece of land soon. so the work is a lot with the animals and also (de)construccion of cages. the live on the farm is very simple and close to the animals. when exactly would you like to come and how long do you think to stay?
i will not be able to connect me the next view days. so i just send you the description how to reach the farm and the phone number of victor. in case you would like to go before i could respond you=)
9511413302- the number of victor hugo

it would be good if you could call him before you arrive.

to arrive to the farm you have to go to the "central de abastos", it's a very big market which everybody knows. from there you'll take a "colectivo" (a sharetaxi) who has written on the window "guadalupe hidalgo". ask for the place where they leave. there are not many because it's a little village but they drive regularly from the morning until it's getting dark. so when you're in the taxi you say that you want to go to the "divertigranja" which is located between santiaguito etla and guadalupe hidalgo. so it's before guadalupe hidalgo but the taxidrivers will know because there are not many tourists in this area and most of them are going to the divertigranja=)

I wish you a merry christmas

saludos

that sounds perfect=)

i'm not sure how many people are on the farm right now because i'm writing you as a ex volunteer from switzerland. normally there are some rooms avalaible. but very simple rooms, maybe you have to clean them a little bit because the house is half open and built with earth.

maybe it's good when you bring a tent, just in case.

and please call victor before you arrive that he knows that you come and that he is on the farm at this time!

no thats all. we are happy to receive you=)

any more questions?

saludos and a happy new year!
