Maximo Nivell - Cusco

This whole experience was incredible. The placement was challenging, working with kids from very different backgrounds, yet when you see them understand something or enjoy themselves it makes it worth it. Maximo staff were so supportive of any challenges I encountered. In the second half of my placement time, the project was taken over by a spanish only speaker, where my spanish is poor it was difficult to communicate. Maximo sent a member of their staff to all the meetings we had and they came regularly to placement to reduce the language barrier. It was very helpful and supportive of Maximo. Their facilities in the Maximo building were appropriate to the needs of the volunteers. The accommodation was amazing, It felt like being in a 5* hotel with the care and services offered to us.
Overall, the projects are very well organised in an amazing and beautiful city. I wish I could go back!
