4worldlovers: 
HOOP stands for “Helping Overcome Obstacles Peru” We are an NGO that works with communities in the northern cone of Arequipa developing projects focused on 3 main areas: Education, Family (psychology), Community (social work)
HOOP was founded in 2012 by volunteers and staff of the Flora Tristan English School in Cerro Colorado. Families there had no access to basic services and it was sought to provide educational services to achieve a positive impact on the community.

luci apaza ramos: many nice things
Estefanía Núñez: Working for the community and helping kids fulfill their dreams is a great experience and very rewarding
Aimee Holt: HOOP, like some other organizations internationally, *charges you* to volunteer your time for them. It costs $250 USD to volunteer with them, which is about a months minimum wage salary here. Algo huele mal. If you're looking for an opportunity to volunteer in Arequipa, or anywhere in South America, be aware there are many, many free options. A quick Google search will help you find them.
Michelle Cartier-Archambault: Where to start? I only have positive things to day about this NGO. Even though HOOP is not very big, it still makes a huge impact on the community they are working with. All of the staff genuinly care about making a difference and this dedication also touches the volunteers that come to help! It was a life changing experience for me. The NGO is perfectly transparent and well structured. New ideas and suggestions are always welcomed and everyone is able to find it's place to help in their most efficient way. I could go on and on about why HOOP is awesome but the best thing you can do is check it out yourself. I highly recommend volunteering with them. Believe me, you won't regret it.
Julianne Ezra: This is an organised and immensely rewarding NGO to volunteer for. I started as a teacher for 3 months and loved it so much I'm now a founding trustee of the UK fundraising branch - Helping Overcome Obstacles Peru UK. It was certainly a life changing experience. HOOP has had a clear positive impact on the community of Flora Tristan and continues to grow its activities based on what the people genuinely need. The children are gorgeous and the English school is such an integral part of their lives. The lively playground after classes is great fun and the glorious climate of Arequipa is the perfect backdrop with its stunning blue skies and volcano horizon. Don't let the joining fee put you off, it's your guarantee that this is a bona fide organisation that is genuinely making a difference. Enjoy!
Jimmy Quicara: I'm a Arequipan guy living now in Vancouver, I've read the news today on 24h that Melania is going to be part of a challenge to raise funds for a non-profit.I wanted to give you all a big thanks for your work, effort and compassion you show to improve children's life there.I feel identified and humbled because I was grown there and now live here, and now these two places are connected because of your actions.Thank you again, you help create a better world, I wish you the best.

Elaine Rodrigues: Sensacional a história deste lugar, uma cidade dentro de outra, uma vida de clausura, somente visitando para conseguir entender.
Miguel Angel Alvarez: The Monastery keeps a part of the history of Arequipa from the viceregal era until the previous century, you can appreciate what the life of the religious women of that time was like. The buildings, paintings and objects are of high historical value, pride for the Arequipeños and Peruvians who have visited
Andrew Betts: Superbly preserved, and well explained in Spanish and English throughout. Took us 90 minutes, self guided. Huge.Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No …More
Philip Attukadavil: A wonderful must see place in Arequipa. An ancient but elegant monument, worth visiting. One of my favorite places in Arequipa
Manuel Martin: Must visit if you are in Arequipa
Warthongful: It was going back in time with spectacular views
German Jesus Zapata: If or if take some time to visit this place.
JANNE POVIS: !! Y sacas buenas fotitos de recuerdo !!!(Translated by Google
Piero Alarcon: Spectacular!! As everyone says, if you go to Arequipa this is a point that you should go to anyway!
Ornella: Molto suggestivo. Un tuffo nel passato. Le guide sono dolcissime e vale assolutamente la pena fare un giro con loro.
Daniela Diazgranados Ortiz: Beautiful place full of stories and culture, the only bad thing was that a guide was not very friendly, so we decided to do the tour without a guide
Senna: A great way to spend a few hours of your day, and an absolute recommendation for Antigua. The monastery is very big, and there are signs in almost every room explaining the significance of certain tools/spaces in English and Spanish. I would say you won't necessarily need a tour if you search for the info signs.The colours are lovely, and it's just beautiful all around. Perfect place to learn some history.Only downside were the prices, they are quite high at 45PEN for an adult.

Eve Davila: Malisima la atención de los dis que medicos cubanos.. Le dijeron a mi mamá que para la artritis debe primero ser feliz y ya luego pensar en un tratamiento, no la revisó. Le ofreció suero oxigenado y vitamina c en las venas.. Ese fué su gran diagnostico..

Siegfried Alfons Kuz: Great Volunteer Organization and Language school with a lovely team. Situated in a nice neighborhood in Arequipa, they offer some great volunteering programs, which are located around the city and where you feel like you can really make a difference, while also getting to know the locals and the culture. Would highly recommend!
Sofia Domagk: I stayed and volunteered with TNT for over four months and it was a really incredible experience! Sofia and her family are super nice and welcoming, the house is in a great location, right above the language school and with a beautiful garden. It's not far from the city center, in an authentic neighborhood, with local shops, restaurants and bigger supermarkets nearby. I lived in the common flat with other volunteers, language students, and interns, and we had an amazing time there. Together, we explored Arequipa and its surroundings and became good friends during that time. During the week, I worked as a volunteer in the Cuna Jardin, which was also an incredible experience and helped me grow immensely as a person. The teachers and the kids were really sweet, and I was able to learn a lot about the local culture and people - and also quickly learned Spanish (which I did not speak at all before). Twice a week, I was able to take private Spanish lessons in the language school, which helped speeding up my language learning process. Generally, I can wholeheartedly recommend TNT to anyone who's interested in getting to know Peru and Arequipa, as well as the people, culture and language. I had an amazing time there and really hope I can come back some time soon.
James Edward Foxall: I spent 6 weeks volunteering at the cuna jardín and had a great time. The teachers there work long hours and do a great job of looking after the children. Working with the kids can be hard work at times but is very fun and definitely worthwhile. The volunteer apartment is a good place to stay and is in a great location with plenty of shops and supermarkets around. Sofia and her family take good care of their guests and are always available to help.
Jacob Kelleher: The accommodations at TNT are perfect for any authentic trip to Arequipa and incredibly reasonably priced. The volunteering experience as well is incredibly rewarding and fun!
Jasmine Rowe: A great organisation offering support to all volunteers around the clock. The accomadation is situated within walking distance to the beautiful city center, as well as offering easy access to the language school right below! I had a fantastic time during my project and especially enjoyed living in Arequipa!
Claudia Marusanici: Such a beautiful and transforming experience this was! I volunteered for two months at a kindergarten in Arequipa through "Traveller Not Tourist" and everything was beyond my expectations. Sofia takes great care of her "travelers" by always listening and anticipating one's needs. I lived in the flat with other volunteers and this was another big part of the experience as we were all from different corners of the world. The staff at the kindergarten was very kind and supportive and the children were, as you can imagine, a joy to work with. I would definitely recommend "Traveller Not Tourist" to anyone interested in volunteering in Arequipa, Peru.
Ombeline Gille: JE RECOMMANDE A 100%J'ai passé deux mois extraordinaires avec Traveller Not Tourist, en tant que volontaire au Pérou.Sofia, la responsable de TNT au Pérou, gère le projet d'une main de maître. Avant votre départ, elle met tout en oeuvre pour répondre à vos attentes. Une fois sur place, c'est une vraie petite maman : elle vous emmène chez le médecin, elle vous organise vos voyages, elle est toujours à votre écoute et elle est disponible 7/7 H24.Ce fut une vraie belle rencontre !L'appartement dans lequel les volontaires sont logés est génial. Il est spacieux, pratique, très propre et on s'y sent bien.Enfin, les missions de volontariats sont très bien organisées et très enrichissantes.Bref, expérience inoubliable, que je recommande vivement !
Tessa Haggerty-Robinson: I stayed at the volunteer flat and volunteered at the children’s home for a little over a month and had a great experience. Volunteering at the children’s home was a great opportunity. I got to know a ton of really awesome kids and worked with them everyday. The volunteer flat was a very comfortable place to live. I was able to make my own food in the full kitchen which was very nice. All in all an awesome experience and I would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Arequipa!
