Hello!! We are Lionel and Freya, a couple from Peru and the USA. We have been traveling through South America since April 2025 and have loved sharing new experiences as we travel together. We are both interested in visiting new places and trying new things, and love to spend time in nature.

Freya y Lionel son dos chicos muy tranquilos, respetuosos; ellos me ayudaron mucho en la construcción de un piso, en la agricultura, haciendo actividades como fumigar papas, poner abono orgánico a la hierba del cuy y sacar hierbas malas del cultivo de haba.
De todo corazon gracias.

Pasamos 2 semanas en la casa de Yuditta y disfrutamos mucho nuestro tiempo ahí! Es un lugar muy bonito y Yuditta nos hizo sentir como en casa. Trabajamos cada día desde las 8AM hasta la 1PM luego tuvimos toda la tarde libre. Siempre hay cosas para hacer, a veces un poco pesadas, pero nos gustó mucho el trabajo y siempre podíamos hacer otras cosas… read more

This workaway is located in a pretty place and the people who work there are kind. We mainly worked with José, who was the delegator since Zeze (the host) was on a trip for our 2 weeks there. During our time, we did various things such as taking care of the dogs, washing windows, cutting fire wood, and helping with construction on a room for the… read more

Recomendamos mucho este voluntariado, nos quedamos 2 semanas que valieron totalmente la pena, Jefferson y su familia son unas personas muy amables. Desde el primer día nos hicieron sentir como en casa, extrañaremos mucho a sus 2 lindos perritos (Thanos y Arlo) con los cuales pasamos mucho tiempo, ya que normalmente los días de semana estamos solos… read more

Eventhough they are young, Lionel and Freya were resposible, generous and honest to our dogs. They worked hard and gave lots of love to them. Our dogs genuinely appreciate and enjoy the time with them. We totally recommend them for future volunteer opportunities. Thank you both for sharing your experience!

This was our first time working with dogs and it definitely proved to be hard work, but overall it was a great experience! Jessica and Kishor were very generous hosts, often offering food to volunteers even though it was not at all expected, and it felt like a very community-oriented workaway. Unfortunately I (Freya) was sick for about half of our… read more

Staying at Alejandra’s place was so cool! The property is beautiful and is great for people who want to be in nature, I really enjoyed walking around and going to the river and waterfall. The work was varied and not too difficult, I learned a lot while I was there. ALSO we made a lot of really good food, I definitely have some new recipes now. I… read more

As someone who had never taught English before, I definitely didn’t know what to expect when I went into it. I’ll admit that it was hard for me to adapt, especially with planning the lessons, but I was proud of myself once the 4 weeks had passed. It was a great place to stay, the family was so welcoming and all the other volunteers were great,… read more

Freya es una granchica, aunque es muy joven es entregada al trabajo, responsable, sonriente, colaboradora, es muy callada pero eso no impidio a que pudieramos tener conversaciones amenas con la familia y otros volntarios, participo con alegria en varias actividades de la escuela, estamos muy agradecidos con su ayuda.

I stayed here for just over 4 weeks and it was such an amazing first Workaway experience! The landscape around the almazara is so pretty and the stars are incredible at night; if you don't mind walking there is also a lake about 40 minutes away by foot. The food here was always delicious (usually pasta or stew of some sort with plenty of… read more
