El Valle, off the beaten path.
My place is located in the northen mountains of Peru. I live in a valley with good weather and nice local food. I few years ago I started planting fruit trees and growing sugar cane in a organic way. The process is slow but
rewarding. I am not in a rush, live a simple rustic life where confort is not the main focus of my life. I like hiking , going to the hot springs , local markets and water falls. I am creating a food forest. The weather is sunny and warm from April to November.
* if you are interested in Chachapoyas or Tarapoto and you are at the coast, Cajamarca is on the way to these places.
I am easygoing when it comes to work , I'd rather have you do a good small task than rushing to do a lot of work.
I also offer Spanish lessons on line and here at my place. I have plenty of experience teaching...

About the experience in: Cajabamba, Peru
Brazil
I really enjoyed visiting this place. Gerardo is a good host. He knows how to cook very well and I was able to try mountain-style vegetarian food. There are hot springs and a couple of very beautiful waterfalls. The place is very quiet and not touristy. The work is in the garden, especially weeding around the fruit trees. All very good.
I recommend 🫂🌿❤️

Gerardo is a great person and a great host. I enjoyed every day i spent at his place. He is kind, funny and genuine. The tasks were not hard. He is a good cook, the food he prepared was delicious. I never felt like he is a host, he is now a friend of mine. I cant say thank you enough, gerardo. I hope life will bring everything you ask for.

Kubi was a hard working volunteer. He is responsible, can be independent at times but he is also social. His good humor is contagious and we had a great time . My best recommendations for his next host .
Kubi keep being good, and wish you a long nice experience in south America.

I had a great time with Gerardo. He's a good person, with strong values and his very own way of seeing life. It's always interesting to share a talk with him. The place is located by hi orchard. It's a very simple house, without power at the time being. But it's a nice opportunity to focus on the essential, and connect with nature. Hummingbirds, fireflies and stars will be your best friends. The job isn't complicated and Gerardo is very understanding regarding the tasks, so don't be fraud of helping him !
