Our property has two cozy bungalows and one double room, which we share with travelers through Airbnb.
Guests often tell us how much they appreciate the peaceful, welcoming atmosphere. For us, hospitality is about creating a feeling of being home away from home. We would love your support in maintaining this energy here while we are away parts of June and July 2026.
We do not accept volunteer requests for 1-2 weeks stay, as we are looking for someone who stays longer term, at least 4 weeks to really get to know our place and be able to contribute to keeping our project up whilst we are away.
Location:
10 minutes from Urubamba (markets, shops, restaurants)
