We are family project established in the the Sacred Valley of Peru.
Our concept revolves around sustainability and green & conscious living. We have an organic vegetable garden and we practice principles of permaculture to make our space as self-sustainable as possible.
We are located in the rural side of Urubamba, 25 min walking distance from town where you can find the main market, coffee shops and restaurants.
This is a great opportunity to learn more about yoga, health, conscious food, organic farming and medicinal plants.
We consider people that are willing to stay at least 1 month. However we consider shorter stays for skilled people.
If this sounds appealing to you we would love to hear from you.

During the exchange we may ask for help with gardening, dog sitting, taking guests on hikes, making fires... just a little help here and there to lighten our workload. Depending on your skills and experience we can assign you a small project.
Tell us a little bit about how you could contribute to our centre and we would be glad to have you. We will consider people who have a mature mindset and who are self motivated.
