Amazon experience
April 18, 2024by: Nick QuirkeProgram: Projects Abroad in Peru
An adventure in the amazon jungle. If you like looking after rescued animals and birds this is the trip for you plus hiking in the amazon jungle. Taricara met my expectations and gives me a taste of living in the tropical jungle. Facilities basic but this is expected. Everything you need is there and welcoming hosts as a bonus.
Kindergarten project
July 23, 2022by: Elena Askew-RenautProgram: Projects Abroad in Peru
The experience was great, and I will miss the children terribly. The teachers were very welcoming and extremely nice, as a reflection of the general kindness of Peruvian people. The management team is good. Cusco is a beautiful city and the trip to Machupicchu went nicely. Thank you for these unforgettable two weeks.
Tiring but fun
July 23, 2022by: Josephine AbellProgram: Projects Abroad in Peru
This was a very fun trip. It was amazing to see different places in Cusco and Peru in general. I loved getting a glimpse into another culture and place. It was unfortunate how often I, and others, were sick. I had a lot of fun taking care of the kids; they were adorable, but they were also very energy draining.
