I had a really great time staying at the home's little farm/future cultural vecinal center ! the home is a great host, always here if you need anything, super interesting conversations we had, great knowledge of Peru's history and culture. He's also a great guide when it comes to know the best place to visit and best food to try. I strongly recommend this expérience :)

I had a great experience! After I settled in, I spent one week with the home. He is a super warm, and welcoming person, who likes to cook and communicate. My working times were quite flexible, which was very nice. The tasks were challenging, but very doable and fun. the home has a lot to teach you and also has an open hear to learn about different cultures and countries. I would definitely recommend this experience! I had an unforgettable week, and made a good friend. :)

Nilo lidera un proyecto fascinante en la casa, y colaborar con él ha sido un placer. Es alguien con gran conocimiento, y nuestras conversaciones fueron muy enriquecedoras. la casa invita a vivir en tranquilidad, rodeado de naturaleza, y a conectar con el estilo de vida auténtico de muchos peruanos.

Desde el primer momento Nilo fuè una persona muy especial, me lleno de consejos para poder llegar al hermoso Perú, estuvo pendiente de mi llegada y fue un gran anfitrión, déjenme contarles que me lleno de inspiración para seguir viajando ya que el tiene grandes experiencias como cicloviajero. Ademas es un excelente cocinero y prepara muy buenas bebidas. Respecto a la cultura local sabe demasiado y es muy buen sociólogo, lo cual me permitió ampliar la mente. El voluntariado en general fue muy bueno, las playitas quedan cerca y hay demasiadas cosas por seguir descubriendo, espero volver!
