It also has some of the most spectacular and varied scenery in South America. The Peruvian Andes are arguably the most beautiful on the continent and the mountains are home to millions of highland Indians, who still speak the ancient tongue of Quechua and maintain a traditional way of life.
Peruvian territory was home to the Norte Chico civilization, one of the oldest in the world, and to the Inca Empire.
Although Peru has rich natural resources and many great places to visit, many of the people live in poor conditions. 43% of the population lives under the poverty line.
Our Volunteer Projects in Peru are located in the capital city of Lima, Fascinating City of Cusco, the ‘White City’ – Arequipa, Trujillo, Huancayo and Puno.
