Détails du programme
Volunteers are an essential part of our daily activities. Join us and become part of our community, develop your Spanish and experience the wonders of Ecuador without breaking the bank!
El Terreno is based in a peaceful rural community where people know and support each other. The area is very safe, with a local police station in Atandahua and 24/7 on-site staff ensuring all participants feel secure and supported throughout their stay.
Activités et horaires
Our Volunteer program is designed for individuals eager to contribute to the daily operations of our cultural exchange centre. Volunteers take on hands-on tasks such as:
Cooking – Assisting with meal preparation
Cleaning – Helping maintain a clean and organised space
Manual Work & Gardening – Supporting infrastructure, gardening, and general maintenance
Skill-level is less important than a great attitude and strong work-ethic in support of El Terreno’s internal operations, in exchange for accommodation, meals and an authentic experience in the Ecuadorian Andes. This program does not involve direct engagement with the local community.
During weekends—or before and after your internship—you can explore Ecuador’s incredible diversity, from the Amazon rainforest to the Galápagos Islands.
