As the last of our target countries, Chile will soon be allowing entry again. The pandemic may not be over yet, but the borders are finally opening – yuuupieehh. A great variety of programs awaits you in Chile. For your stopover in the capital, here are a few useful tips.
We took advantage of the calm during the pandemic and spotted new interesting and meaningful volunteer projects in Chile for you. One of the new additions is a fair trade organization in the beautiful city of Valdivia.
Those who like to get to know other cultures, who want to be in the midst of spectacular nature, who like adventure and still don’t want to be “off the beaten track”, have come to the right place on this working holiday in the popular southern Chilean resort of Pucón.
Attention horse lovers! If you love horses and ponies, enjoy working with people, if you fancy sunny weather and are not afraid of physical work, then we have the ideal farm stay for you!
We used the Corona-related break in Chile diligently in order to have many wonderful new farm stay offers available for the time afterwards. As soon as the borders open, you now have a lot more choice between the small north of Chile and the deepest Patagonia.
The volunteer work in the animal shelter in Quito starts right there: The volunteers are placed in a national NGO that works for animal welfare and environmental protection in general, and abandoned pets in particular.
As soon as the borders are easily passable again for international travelers, you will have endless possibilities in this long, breathtaking country. We at South America Inside have used the time and added great new working holiday places to our offer.
In our volunteer project, volunteers, medical students, nurses or interns (nursing internship) are placed in public hospitals in Quito. Above all, people who cannot afford private health care are treated here. Even people who have no health insurance at all receive free medical care there.
Fancy the beach, sun, salt in your hair, nice people, a workplace with a sea view and that pure holiday feeling? A working holiday in a hostel in Pichilemu is exactly that: the perfect mix of “working” and “holiday”.
