Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Interact and enjoy cultural exchange with people from around the world. Explore Arequipa, which embodies a rich mix of the indigenous and Spanish colonial cultures. With 468 years of history since its founding, examples of Spanish colonial architecture can be found throughout the center of the city and several surrounding districts. UNESCO has declared it Human Heritage site. Catholic churches are scattered throughout the center of the city. Some ancient houses have been refurbished by the local authorities and serve as living museums. An example of this are the so-called "Tambos" located at Puente Bolognesi street.

Accommodation
My hostel was created to feel like a home away from home 🏡. We’re not a party hostel — we’re a simple, social space designed for people to connect, share stories, and enjoy our common areas together. The idea is to naturally create a beautiful community of travelers, supported by our amazing team who helps make everyone feel welcome from the moment they arrive
What else ...
The city is part of the so called "Southern Peru Tourist Corridor", together with Nazca, Puno and Cusco. In contrast to these other cities, Arequipa is an example of the Spanish and mestizo culture developed in Peru. There are no Inca artifacts or ruins in the city.
In the winter it is warmer than in the summer. It is nicknamed the 'white city' (la ciudad blanca, in Spanish), because many of the buildings in the area are built of sillar, a white stone. This rock was quarried from the many volcanoes that surround the city, including the towering El Misti. Ask for local help to identify Misti, Chachani and PichuPichu, the three volcanoes surrounding the city.
Arequipa is a city in the Southern Coastal region of Peru just below the edge of the Altiplano, at 2380 meters above sea level and surrounded by three impressive volcanoes. It's Peru's second most important city (after Lima), and the second most popular among tourists (after Cuzco).

I helped Evelin at her house. Mainly, I just swipe and mop the floor in the common area, wash, dry and fold bedsheets. The working dates are only Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is simple and easy. It can be a lot of sheets to wash sometimes. But you still have plenty of time.

The two weeks we spent were really a pleasure. The hostel is really a nice place to stay for longer time the same as the city itself. Hostel staff is perfect and everyone is perfectly helpful. The hostel is also beautifully organized and very clean. We wouldn’t hesitate to join them again!!! 😊
