Mrs. Vilma welcomed me into her home as if I were her own daughter. The work is not complicated, but it does require responsibility. Good communication is also important to fully understand the different tasks and to let the hosts know if any problems or difficulties arise. Having two volunteers at the same time can definitely make it easier to organize the tasks. Cusco city center is about an hour away, depending on traffic and transportation. Roxana was always available to answer any questions. I was also asked to help with some additional tasks, which I was happy to do.

I really enjoyed my stay ! The family I stayed with are beautiful. Despite my limited Spanish, they welcomed me and helped me with this. My only note is the home is a bit far from the city, but overall I really enjoyed my stay here.

Gracias por tu comentario, Jackson 🙏Me alegra mucho que hayas disfrutado la experiencia. Sobre la distancia, soy consciente de que el tránsito ha aumentado últimamente, por eso recibo dos voluntarios para que no se sientan presionados con los tiempos. A diferencia de otros lugares, aquí pasan buses con mucha frecuencia (cada pocos minutos), y en Uber es más rápido. ¡Gracias por tu buena disposición! 🙌

My stay at Vilma's house in the countryside was a great opportunity near Cusco & the Inca ruins I was visiting. I was kindly welcomed by her &her daughter. There is also a nice young man there who goes to college nearby. 1-2 workers came daily & ate there as well. I washed the plates & cooking pans- as well as helping with their cats & dogs. All were affectionate, I fell in love with every animal. They also have a second estate that overlooks the village; a breathtaking view I appreciated photographing. I declined to help with the land there though. No big deal but I had ruins to see each day

I speant a great time in Cusco. The tasks are easy to do and don't take a lot of time, so there's enough time to visit the city. I appreciate that Roxana's sister helped me with everything, such as the tasks in the house as personal stuff too

It was a great experience, just 1 hour away from Cusco! We felt welcoming by the host mom we were in the house with! And we had a lot of free time to discover around, as agreed in Worldpackers! Recommended! :)

Mis semanas cuidando a Munay y Cusco fueron realmente muy lindassss❤️ Son gatitos bastante independientes, por lo que el trabajo no es demasiado exigente y tienes bastante tiempo libre para disfrutar de Cusco. Ambos son muy amigables, cariñosos y juguetones, yo incluso dormía con ellos y fue muy bonito tener su compañía; son de esos gatitos que hacen que la casa se sienta mucho más acogedora y cálida. Roxana, siempre estuvo disponible para cualquier duda o cosa que necesitara, así que hubo buena comunicación

Gostei bastante da experiência. Vilma é uma ótima anfitriã, trocamos bastante coisa juntas. Os animais são ótimos e de fácil cuidado. O bairro fica a 1h30 do centro de Cusco mas é super tranquilo de ir e chegar pois tem um ônibus que vai direto para lá. Aa atividades são tranquilas e após dar comida aos animais você tem o dia livre, tendo que voltar somente no final do dia para dar comida novamente (quando a Vilma estava as vezes ela colocava e eu podia chegar mais livre de horário).

La experiencia con Roxana y los gatitos fue linda, aproveché mi tiempo para conocer la ciudad como así también para estar en casa tranquila y relajada, si me hubiera gustado que la casita esté más higienizada en mi llegada pero fue una linda experiencia de todas formas 🤍🙌🏼🫂✨

Milagros, gracias nuevamente por tu ayuda y por cuidar tan bien a los gatitos. Solo quería aclarar que el departamento donde te quedaste no era la casa del voluntariado, sino el de mi hermana, que estaba de viaje, por lo que no se encontraba en sus condiciones habituales. Gracias por adaptarte tan bien al cambio inesperado 💛

Minha experiência foi muito positiva e dentro do que a vaga descreve. Desde o primeiro dia, fui muito bem recebido pela senhora Vilma, Jhoncito, gatos e cachorros. Margarida, filha da Vilma, também esteve presente em vários momentos e ajudou muito com dicas, passeios e conversas. Roxana sempre esteve disponível pelo WhatsApp e foi muito atenciosa durante toda a experiência. A casa fica a cerca de 45 minutos de ônibus de Cusco. Aproveite os dias de sol para lavar roupas, pois no frio elas demoram para secar. Ter iniciativa e boa comunicação ajuda bastante nas tarefas e na convivência.
