Hola,
I am Monzón, and I’ve been surfing for over 20 years. I’m a passionate longboarder and surf coach, and for many years it has been my dream to create a surf house in a world-class surf destination.

What we’ve created is not a traditional business, but a small, community-based surf house built through shared experiences, respect, and a love for the ocean.
The atmosphere is calm, social, and centered around surfing, hiking, sandboarding, simple living, and good energy.
Everything is shared and done together. Volunteers help as an extra hand to maintain the space and keep the house running smoothly.
The help is light and flexible (maximum 8 hours per week), leaving you with plenty of free time to surf, explore, and enjoy life by the sea.
This experience is best suited for independent, responsible, and easygoing people who are comfortable with a simple lifestyle, enjoy surfing, and appreciate being part of a respectful and positive environment.

🛠️ Help
Help at the surf house is light and flexible, around 8 hours per week, and mainly involves simple shared tasks.
These include general cleaning, keeping common areas organized, and occasionally helping with small projects around the house.
This is not a structured job, but a shared living environment where everyone contributes a little. We appreciate people who are proactive, respectful, and happy to help without needing constant direction.
The lifestyle here is calm and centered around surfing, the ocean, and enjoying a slower pace of life.

Hello everyone,
Are you travelling to South America or Peru? Do you love surfing, salsa, hiking? Are you practical and hands-on?
Huanchaco beach is a small fishing town in Trujillo City with consistent waves all year round and located only one hour away from Chicama Beach “the longest lefthand wave in the world.”
The main reason I’m welcoming volunteers is to help me complete my Surf House dream. Four years ago, with the help of volunteers, we renovated a house that became a homestay for surfers. There are still some improvements to be made, and I’d love to continue this project with the support of new volunteers.
In exchange for free accommodation, I’m looking for help around the house. Tasks may include:
- Small renovations and improvements
- Painting
- Improving the outdoor areas and garden around the house (and even the street)
- Cooking simple homemade meals for the volunteers
- Keeping shared areas clean and tidy
The maximum work requirement is 8 hours per week in exchange for accommodation.
In addition, we also have several small businesses where volunteers may help, depending on their interests. There may be other opportunities available. These options can be discussed once you arrive, so we can adapt the volunteering experience to what you enjoy most.
I look forward to welcoming motivated, positive people who want to enjoy surf, culture, and local life in Huanchaco.

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
