Inhabitants of a virgin territory

in travel •  6 years ago  (edited)
Hello, friends, today I want to tell you about a place I met recently, which we named the Enchanted, because with the first visit we were all delighted and once the gentleman who had invited us to meet him, decided to buy a plot there.


Believe me, I had no idea that these lands had an owner, which is a mountainous area difficult to access, but well, a woman in Spain claims to be owner of the sun, what can you expect from the rest? Enchanted as we call it is a place, I would say that where the hand of man had never come, only the mountains, is what we found. It is located in the Municipality of Páez, of the Apure State, border of the States Táchira-Apure in Venezuela, with a latitude of 7º 22 '3' 'and Longitude 71º 58' 58 ''


They built a wooden house, and little by little the place was inhabited.


They then made a ridge that could be reached with a vehicle there, the task was arduous but fruitful, and the emotion of the children was unimaginable.






And they did it for the first time a vehicle went up to that area, which is still largely virgin nature.
Little by little it has adapted to the place and the daily work of living in the countryside, with livestock and sowing.
A little less than a month ago, they managed to take the electricity to the place, because the high cost of materials was thought impossible, but again with their effort they succeeded ... There is still a long way to go to live comfortably, as it is still not They have been able to build a septic tank for their physiological needs, but they live trying to improve every day. Unfortunately, during these winter days, the ridge deteriorated a lot and it is time for them to use donkeys to raise and lower their things, such as the market or children for school. It is truly a magical place, but to get there you must walk uphill about one hour and forty-five minutes. The truck that for the first and only time managed to climb, lasted twenty minutes, arriving from the main road to the house.

They love living there, they love the earth and what they can get from it

Que rico esos lugares. Ojalá pudiéras, si es que ya no has ido, ir a La Azulita en Mérida! Es un lugar muy bonito donde muchos citadinos han migrado para allá buscando esa calidad de vida. La vida en el campo, sus inicios, no son fáciles pero dará muchas recompesas.

Hola, no he tenido la oportunidad de ir, solo he llegado hasta Tucaní pero este año espero darme un tour por Mérida, A mi me gusta mucho compartir con las personas del campo, son amables, humildes, y estar allí conectada con la naturaleza es algo increíble.

Es totalmente renovador!
