Hi yogis! 🌿
My name is Leshka, and I am the founder of Casa Kallpa, a wellness and retreat sanctuary nestled in the Peruvian Amazon, about 20 minutes from the city of Rioja, where the Andes meet the Amazon.
Casa Kallpa was created from a deep love for the jungle, healing, yoga, and community. Our property is surrounded by pristine Amazonian forest, with a river flowing through the land and beautiful views of the mountains.
We currently host wellness and plant medicine retreats, and we're now opening a new chapter for Casa Kallpa.
We want to become a place that people can experience beyond retreats. A destination where people can come to slow down, reconnect with nature, practice yoga, and experience the magic of the Amazon.
I'm looking for someone who feels genuinely aligned with that vision and would love to make the jungle their home for a while, while helping us care for and grow this beautiful space.
🌱 What we're offering
In exchange for approximately 4 hours of help per day, you will receive:
Your own private geodesic dome to live in
Access to our beautiful shared kitchen where you can prepare your own meals
A moped for transportation between Casa Kallpa and town
A monthly stipend in Peruvian soles
The opportunity to live surrounded by the Amazon jungle
Time and space to practice yoga, connect with nature, explore the region, and enjoy a slower way of living
The opportunity to be part of a growing project with a meaningful purpose
You'll have plenty of personal time outside of your agreed working hours.
This is a support role, I will remain directly involved in the project, including bookings, guest logistics, transportation, retreats, and the overall direction of the center.
I'm looking for someone who can help me with the day-to-day hospitality.
🧘🏽♀️ What your role would look like
Welcoming guests
Greeting guests when they arrive
Showing them their accommodation and helping them feel comfortable
Helping with simple check-ins and check-outs
Being available for basic questions during their stay
Helping create a warm and welcoming atmosphere
Teaching
Leading approximately one wellness class per day when guests are staying
The class can be aligned with your own style and experience
When there are no guests, there is no expectation that you teach
Taking care of the space
Keeping common areas clean, organized, and cared for
Helping keep the domes and shared spaces guest-ready
Letting me know when something needs attention or maintenance
Helping with light day-to-day tasks that keep the property feeling beautiful and cared for
Supporting guests & communication
Communicating with me about guests and anything that comes up
Helping guests feel comfortable and supported during their stay
Following the systems and guidelines we establish together
The goal is simply to have someone kind, responsible, and trustworthy on the ground who can help care for the space and create a beautiful experience for the people staying here.
🌴 What life at Casa Kallpa is like
This isn't a resort.
It's a sanctuary in the jungle.
You'll hear the river, wake up surrounded by trees, see incredible wildlife, practice yoga in nature, and have the opportunity to experience a part of Peru that most visitors never get to see.
At the same time, we're only about 20 minutes from Rioja, the nearest town, so you're not completely isolated. You can go into town for groceries, explore the region, meet people, and experience the local culture.
When we don't have guests or retreats, Casa Kallpa can be very quiet. You'll have plenty of time to enjoy the property, practice yoga, read, create, explore, or simply be.
And when guests are here, you'll have the opportunity to connect with people from different parts of the world and be part of their experience at Casa Kallpa.
