How to work and travel in Peru

Peru is one of the most touristic regions of the world! With so many lavish mountains and a unique cultural package, this country is ideal for those traveling on a budget. To make the most out of your trip and still get to know the beaches, mountains and the Peruvian cities, one option is to work in exchange for accommodation. In addition to working abroad, for just a few hours of work per day you get accommodation and many stories to tell!
