Mi kcao chocolates y café

Our rooftop location is one of the best in Arequipa. We have a chocolate factory and a coffee roastery. We can share with you our knowledge of sustainable practices and the world of Peruvian cocoa and coffee.

Volunteers have the freedom to choose how they want to contribute and express what they know. Potential areas include social media, marketing, photography, content creation, art, and language exchange. This experience would only ask for four or five days per week and would include room, food, drinks and the opportunity to learn about coffee, chocolate and healthy products.

Volunteering at MI K’CAO was an incredible experience! Sauro is an amazing host who goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome, comfortable, and truly at home. He shares not only the café but also his passion for Arequipa, Peruvian culture, and food. The work is flexible and very educative. I learned a great deal about cacao and coffee production, from harvesting to preparation, as well as about social media and managing a café. The rooftop view is breathtaking, the team is warm and friendly, and the accommodation is cosy and right in the city center. Highly recommend!

I spent 2 weeks volunteering at Mi Kcao and that was an amazing experience.
Elmer, Sauro and the team of the cafe are all beautiful people to share time with. The work is pretty chill, the food is really good and the view is stunning!

Muito boa experiência, o trabalho super tranquilo e em algo que eu gosto de fazer que é a produção de conteúdos.
Arequipa é uma cidade muito linda e tranquila, pude conhecer com calma e descansar bastante. A experiência com o Workshop de cacau, sem dúvidas foi a melhor!

This was one of the most interesting volunteering experiences I've done and I really enjoyed it. I worked in the Café from either 12-4pm or from 4:30-8:30pm. The staff were lovely and so sweet, I was well looked after and had good evenings with the host and their friends. I enjoyed waitressing, interacting with other travellers, the delicious food, chocolate and drinks. I had time to do many things outside of my work, with helpful recommendations of what to see, and what tours to do. Arequipa is beautiful.
