After a long time searching, one of our own team members came to Cusco because of an internship. So from experience, we know how difficult it can be to find a placement in South-America without having to pay hundreds of euros or dollars in mediation costs, or expensive accommodation packages. This is why we would like to help you with finding that perfect internship. Of course, it is possible to do your internship at Corazón de los Apus, but if you are looking for a different type of placement, we have many other options. With our local contacts, we will find the right organisation for you to get one step closer to your graduation! It is an incredible experience living and working abroad in Cusco, but here are some more reasons why you should consider it (if you still needed any).
- A step towards figuring out your career path
- Experience working in an intercultural environment
- Learn Spanish or improve your language skills in a professional setting
- Immerse yourself in the Andean culture
- Looks great on your CV for future international work opportunities
- Expand your global network
- Travel opportunities

Studying is expensive enough already, especially if you are doing part of your studies abroad. That’s why we do not want to charge you with the usual high fees to find an internship in Cusco. We ask a small fee for our time and effort that goes into the process of arranging your placement, but only if it’s an internship at an external organisation. Do bear in mind that some hospitals and clinics charge a fee for interns, but if this is the case for you we will let you know.
Would you like some help with arranging accommodation during your stay? It is a lot more comfortable arriving in Cusco having organized your place to stay already. Check out our accommodation options!
