Authentic Andean culture with kids & families in Cusco

What should you do?

We are Cusimaky in Cusco, a grassroots project far from mass tourism. Our children attend school but lack supplies; many start their day with just a "mate" (local herbal infusion) and bread. They will welcome you with spontaneous hugs! However, our families carry a millenary shyness (p'enqakuy). We need to build trust first—as we say here, to "loosen our braids" (soltar las trenzas).

Role: Homework support, English, and games.

Fee: 160€ sustainability fee covers workshop materials and daily meals for our 30 kids. Intermediate Spanish required. Come experience authentic Andean culture!

What do you get from us?

  • Deep Cultural Immersion: Experience authentic Andean culture and daily traditions far from mass tourism.
  • Language Practice: The perfect opportunity to practice and improve your Spanish conversational skills with locals.
  • Local Guidance: Constant mentorship from our local grassroots team to understand community history and customs.
  • Official Certificate: We provide an official volunteer certificate from our registered association.
  • Pure Connection: The genuine love and spontaneous hugs of our 30 wonderful children.
