  Descrição

  Live in the stunning city of Cusco while learning about Peru and improving your Spanish!
  We are a Peruvian–Dutch family living in Cusco and working in tourism (accommodation, language school, travel agency). The pandemic and the political unrest in Peru hit us hard, and we have now re-opened. We’ll be thrilled with one or two Workawayer(s) to assist us and our small team with various tasks and responsibilities. We offer accommodation & Spanish lessons in Cusco, an excellent opportunity for those who want to improve their Spanish skills—minimum commitment: 6 weeks but preferably three months.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  If you work with us, you will have the chance to meet many people from different countries and Peruvians and learn how to run a small tourism business in a country like Peru. You will learn about the local culture, food, and Cusco's hidden gems. And of course, your Spanish will improve greatly, thanks to the free Spanish lessons and the practice with local people.
  
  We would love to work with proactive Work-awayers who help us improve our services. The longer you stay, the more responsible and varied the work will be, and there will be other exciting opportunities for you, like coordinating our volunteer program, re-designing our promotion material, and helping start an English school for locals.
  During the weekends, you can go hiking around the nearby Sacred Valley, visit Machu Picchu, go to Rainbow Mountain, and more; in the evenings, the students usually go out for dinner / to a café in town.

  Ajuda

  You can assist in different areas depending on your interests, experiences, and skills. We run a Spanish language school for international students and need a student services coordinator. You will receive the new students, give a briefing, and organize different cultural activities. We also offer accommodation to travelers in other apartments (that need re-decoration, maybe some painting and artwork). Finally, have just re-opened our travel agency in Cusco, and we need someone to give information to travelers about the tours we offer, improve the tour descriptions on the websites, and make content for the website and social media (videos, photos, blog articles). For long-term stay and according to your experiences and skills, there are other projects where you could be involved. We offer free accommodation and Spanish lessons.
  
  We expect you to work 4-5 hours daily from Monday to Friday and occasionally during the weekend (e.g., when you have to participate in a tour). Volunteers must be serious about their commitment, hardworking, proactive, and have good social skills. You should have a (high) intermediate English level and already speak some Spanish.

  The accommodation is in a big furnished room (for 1 -3 people) at walking distance from Cusco’s town center (20 minutes walking), with good WIFI and a lovely sunny garden at the house of one of the members of our family with many possibilities to speak Spanish. You can also use the kitchen.

  Algo mais...

  Cusco is a stunning city, a traveler hub, and simultaneously very authentic, but with all the commodities for travelers and expats. The place is perfect for immersing in local culture, hiking the mountains, and visiting the Inca ruins and towns nearby. It is easy to enter into contact with the locals and to practice your Spanish. You can easily walk as Cusco is a small town, but if you go out at night, you can take a taxi that won't cost you much.
