Best Homestays In Peru

Chaullacocha Homestay

You will be invited into the home of people who still wear traditional clothing and follow the traditional agricultural lifestyle every day. The rooms to live in the house are specially prepared for visitors but very simple. This is a difficult experience for many. Traditional Andean houses are small brick, stone, or mud structures with one or two rooms, dirt floors, and few or no windows.

They are cold, dark, windy, and often without electricity. The beds consist of wooden frames with the main mattress and several heavy blankets. You should have your sleeping bag to make sure you are warm enough. The kitchen is often smoky due to cooking over a fire and poor ventilation. There may be a faucet with running water, but no shower. Most houses have an annex, although that varies. Gradually, many families in these villages are improving things like sanitation – partly thanks to the money they earn from socially responsible tourism! The families you will visit during your stay in Peru speak mostly Quechua and a little Spanish. They don’t know English.
