Accommodation
Middle class Peruvian families enjoy opening their homes to
volunteers from overseas.
Volunteers are accommodated in a single or double bedroom
according to availability with a shared and clean bathroom with
hot showers.
As a guest you
will have plenty of opportunities to practice
your conversation and comprehension skills with the family. In
addition, you will observe and participate in everyday
Peruvian life and culture.
Meals
Peruvian families
provide guests with three daily meals from Monday to Saturday.
On Sundays volunteers can use the kitchen to prepare meals.
Cultural tip: Note
that the main food in Peru is served at lunch time.
Special Diet
If you prefer vegetarian dishes, or if you have any food
allergies or other special diet requirement, please let us know
and we will be glad to accommodate you. Just indicate your
dietary preferences (what specific foods you can eat or not)
when you fill out your registration form.
Families are aware that many types of food are new to you and
that you will like some dishes more than others. So please
remind your family what things you eat and do not eat, and feel
free to let them know what new dishes you have liked (or not).
Remember, you may ask your family to serve you plenty of the
wide variety of Peruvian’s readily available fruits and
vegetables
