I spent 3 incredible weeks with Nelson and Cristian! The work requested is always varied and rewarding with all the necessary explanations. the two brothers always make sure that we feel understood and supported, and offer many activities outside of working hours. this place is perfect to connect to nature and learn more about the inka culture!

I had a great time at Wilkathethe lodge. Nelson and his family treated me like one of their own and I had lots of time to explore the surrounding mountains and to go on day trips in the area. Great opportunity to practice Spanish, learn more about an interesting culture and to spend time outdoors. Highly recommend.

We had a fab week stay! The family made us feel so welcome, giving us time to explore the local area and traditions, being patient with our beginner Spanish and catering for us as vegetarians. Luckily for us, it was carnival, so we assisted with the family's preparations and were brought along to celebrations held by their friends/family. We learnt so much about their culture and felt welcomed by the community. We were always encouraged to rest after working and liked that the sleeping/resting space was separate from the family house which gave us privacy. ¡Muchisimo gracias!

I had a really great time staying with Nelson and his family. The area is beautiful and there are good hiking and camping opportunities in the mountains. I got to practice my spanish and hear a lot about the lives and traditions of the people. Its a place to enjoy the mountains and the culture of the andian people. Regarding work and tasks it's very flexible and there are options of both relaxing and working as it is mostly up to you how you spend your stay.

If you want to immerse yourself with a Quechua family for a week in the Andes, I recommend this experience. The family was generous with their knowledge and patient with my questions. Be prepared for rustic living conditions and in return you can more deeply appreciate the history and customs of the region. Work included groundskeeping at the neighboring ruins, gathering wood for the stove, and feeding the pigs. In your free afternoons or days off there is amazing hiking right in your backyard. My Spanish improved and I got to meet other amazing volunteers from all over the world.

Nelson and his family were so kind and welcoming to me, I felt so safe and well cared for while I was staying there. My time with his family was a great opportunity to disconnect and recharge in nature. The work was very light and easy, and I was left most of the day to myself. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet, safe place to unwind and disconnect from the busyness of life.

We had a very nice time atthe community. We did Social Media and it was nice to produce the TikToks. Nelson and the family is very kind. We would recommend the stay! Also, there were some points we didn't really like: -The food is not very good (sometimes the family eats better stuff, you get the cheap food) -Its overpriced, especially if you compare it to accomodations in Huraz -No water during the day, which nobody told us in the beginning -In our opinion they don't treat the animales very nice Still recommend! The days we worked were nice and also there are a lot of hikes around!

We really liked our stay at thethe community, helped with social Media and had a very authentic Experience. The Family was super nice and helped us out whenever we needed Help. Unfortunately, there were also some downsides of the stay: - the food is Not very nice, Sometimes the Family ate better and gave us the cheap food (mostly potatoes and rice) - it's rather expensive If you compare what you get vs what you would get in Huaraz - there is Not really a room/space where you can warm Up or Just relax - the Treatment towards their pets wasn't to nice (maybe thats Just us) Still recommended!
