Review Volunteer Meghan Howell in Peru Cusco Child Care Program
Climbing rainbow mountain, making it to the top and having that panoramic view of the Andes mountains was a gift to me and a mental image I will never forget.

Review Volunteer Veronica Bruehert in PERU Cusco Nurse Program.
I loved my time in Cusco. This is such a beautiful city and country with such caring residents. Being able to experience physical therapy here was very challenging yet rewarding. The differences in standards of care and lack of direction took some time to get used to, but I learned to enjoy the autonomy and tried to provide the best care to the patients as possible. Also the immersion was extremely beneficial. Unless you are fluent or proficient in Spanish I highly recommend it. I learned so much in just 3 weeks at the language immersion lessons and the teachers were all incredible. Overall I really enjoyed my experience and would love to come back and visit in the future!

Volunteering abroad can be an incredibly rich and rewarding experience. While focusing on providing charity care should be your main goal, be sure to take time to treat yourself, too. By volunteering through A Broader View in Cusco, Peru, you’ll be able to provide quality care all while enjoying the rich culture of the local area.
I have loved my experience in Cusco. The girls at the orphanage were so sweet and I will miss them dearly.
I really enjoyed my time in Cusco. I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of local people, as well as the beauty of the country.
Volunteering through ABV was truly an amazing experience. It was eye opening to see the lives of those that we were helping.
Being able to develop friendships with all the kinder and hospital kids. They changed my life in a way no one else has, and I have learned so much from the kids in the hospital as well.
My favorite memory of the program was this one time after the weekend the kids hadn’t seen us and we showed up to the elementary and all the kids would run up to us calling our names and hugging us because they too were very attached. Also the same case in the clinic seeing all their facial expressions change and the smiles on their faces the second we would walk into that clinic.
My favorite memory from my time volunteering at the Clinica was seeing the childrens’ faces light up when they saw my friends and I.

“No hay dias malos en Peru.” That was my motto here, and it was true ("there are no bad days in Peru"). Each day, even if I felt frustrated with my Spanish communication skills or something didn’t go as planned, I learned something new and positive. Each day became my new favorite day.
I became very close with a young girl at the kindergarten. It was a really wonderful friendship and she would always ask me to play with her. I really loved the friendship we had.
I absolutely loved my experience in Cuzco! Volunteering with ABV is an incredible way to travel and experience another country, its culture and people.
I loved working in the girls orphanage. It was incredibly eye opening and life changing, but also so much fun to get to know the girls and practice my Spanish.
We traveled to a village about 50 miles away from Cusco and visited a school. The population of this village was primarily indigenous and they did not have access to many “typical amenities”. As it was around Christmas, we made hot chocolate for the children and provided them with gifts. Seeing their faces light up was an absolute joy, and was by far my favorite experience during the program.
My favorite part of the program was the times spent talking to the girls at the orphanage while they braided my hair!
By volunteering with A Broader View, you can work to make a difference in poverty-stricken communities across the globe. Our worldwide network of volunteering opportunities spans a number of continents and has helped thousands in need. Importantly, we have an extensive volunteering program in Cusco, Peru.
