Leticia, Amazonas, Colombia

Description

The JUCUM Leticia base is in the city of Leticia, where Colombia, Peru and Brazil meet. It is a single base with two houses, and that spaciousness is one of its great strengths. The Pool House has a pool, apartments, rooms and a kitchen, and is meant for lodging the teams that arrive and the base staff.

The Colonial House also has apartments, along with the auditoriums where the different schools take place. Base servants live in both houses and both can receive teams. Thanks to its wide, versatile spaces, the base offers comfort to those who live in it and those who visit, and has auditoriums for the schools and for the workshops we run as a team and to reach the communities. Since the year 2000 it has been the starting point of the work in the Amazon.
