    Description

    This is a Backpacker Hostel located in La Rinconada area, about 10 mins from the town of Pisaq in the Cuzco Region of Peru. The hostel rests at the base of the massive archaeological site and is surrounded by many beautiful mountain landscapes, the nearby market offers organic food and the town itself is inhabited by friendly locals and a large number of expats who reside in the nearby areas.

    Immediately when you arrive in Pisaq, you feel the good energy. When people come to Pisaq, they always end up staying longer than they planned. It is a place to share with others, connect with nature, and learn more about yourself. Our hostel is surrounded by beautiful nature, with a 5 minute walk to the river, the constant views of the mountains, and many hiking trails nearby. Additionally, with just 10 minutes of walking you will be in the town of Pisac. Here you can find food markets, many vegan/vegeterian restaurants and cafes, an artisanal market, yoga studios, and so much more. Our hostel is located in the The Sacred Valley, which is famous for its various Inca ruins. Easily you can take a colectivo from Pisaq to explore the Valley.

    We love to share and learn from others. We read Tarot to each other, play instruments, cook meals, and hang out :)

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Living in Pisaq is an experience in itself, as it is a place of special energy, connection, transformation and healing. Working in a hostel is a great way to meet people from other countries and exchange cultures. It will be a great opportunity to practice both Spanish and English. Our hostel is special because our guests come, and they stay for a long time. Usually weeks and sometimes months. For this, it is a great place to create close connections with people from all over the world.

    You will only be helping 4 hours a day, 5 days a week. Therefore, there is plenty of free time for you to explore the local area, or take a colectivo to nearby town in the valley. Also we are located only 45 minutes from Cusco, so you can conveniently go for the day. You can explore the great Pisaq ruins, head to the market, or go out to party if you'd like. Additionally, just chilling in the hostel is always good vibes. We hope to hear from you :)
