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.

This was my first experience with Worldpackers and it was great! The cafe is really nice and the shifts and tasks are easy. The staff makes you feel welcome and Elmer and Sauro are always approachable if there are questions. They also help out with contacts in case you want to experience local culture, tours or adventures and you might even get discounts which was a nice add on.

I stayed for a week in Arequipa and helped out in the Center and loved my experience! Sauro and Elmer make you feel very welcome and all of the other staff is so lovely. I worked in the afternoons and time flew by. A great way to calm down in between cities!

I stayed for about one and a half weeks working at the Center and absolutely enjoyed it. The work was totally manageable and actually fun. The team of the café is really interested in you and Sauro, as well as his cousin Elmer try to make the work and overall experience as enjoyable as possible. This was my first Worldpacker trip and it motivated me to try out more. Gracias Sauro, nos volvemos a ver prontito 🌞🫶🏻

I loved my time volunteering at the Center! Sauro and Jhon Elmer are really nice and interesting people, I felt a part of the team straight away and the work was relaxed and fun. I learnt so much about their campo and where the products come from. The food in the cafe is so good. It felt more like friends than managers 🫶 the whole experience was great and Arequipa is really beautiful.

This was my first Worldpackers experience and I couldn't ask for anything better. Sauro, Elmer, and the entire the Center staff were so welcoming, helpful, and on board with any video/picture content I wanted to execute. Sauro was the absolute best and was so eager to share his corner of Peru with me. The work was exactly as written, accommodation was clean, and I still had plenty of time to explore Arequipa. I would recommend this experience 10 times over!

Sauro is an amazing host, he really cares about you and shows you around, takes you to cool places etc. However the bar work is quite dull and dirty (very different from the café). I 100% recommend Sauro and MiKcao - but not the bar…

I stayed one week in Arequipa and overall I would say it was fun. The team is nice and the Café has a perfect location in the city center. The working hours were totally fair and I've learned a lot about working in gastronomy. But I would definitely recommend to speak at least Intermediate Spanish, during work and with the staff you have to talk in Spanish. Often we had a lot of costumers at the same time and I'm glad that I could helped the team :)

The café is a nice place and the people there are friendly! The accommodation is at a nearby hostel next to the Plaza de Armas which was a great location. In general, it is a good place to volunteer but I feel like the communication about the tasks/expectations could be better as I felt lost at first - however, it got better and I managed to figure things out. It was fun creating content for Instagram :)

I spent one and a half months with Sauro and the team of mi.the host. What I probably liked best was that the café is a meeting place for travellers and locals. The same applies to the hostel in which I stayed (it was rather quiet than a party hostel). Thanks to the great team at mi.the host, I very quickly felt at home in beautiful Arequipa. I started my experience with a very rustic knowledge of Spanish, but would recommend that future volunteers have an intermediate knowledge (btw, there were no professional spanish classes). Thanks for all the effort and the unforgettable experiences <3
