Spanish Lessons:
Our organisation offers Spanish classes for beginners, intermediate and advanced levels, for all volunteers. We consider it necessary that you to know some Spanish, at least at a basic level in order to enable you to have better communication with the children and adolescents. However, it is up to you whether you want to take lessons. Spanish classes will be provided for 10 hours per week, the cost for this 10 hours is $50.
Weaving Lessons:
These are provided for all those volunteers who wish to know a little bit more about our culture. Weaving is done by hand, using sheep and alpaca wool. You can learn to make ponchos, blankets, quilts, bedspreads and many oher woollen articles. It is simple to do, and we have lots of knowledge in the art of weaving that has been passed on to us by our ancestors. The cost is $50, 10 hours per week.
After work, there are many places that you can
go to enjoy yourself, or perhaps to try some of our traditional
dishes. Huancayo has a whole range of bars and restaurants, and if the
volunteer wishes, someone
will introduce him or her to some of the places. It is
entirely up to the volunteer whether he or she
prefers to use their time going dancing, going to listen to local music, eating
out, or enjoying other attractions that the centre of the city has to offer.
