Commentaires, feedbacks et évaluations Workaway

Helena has been at our school for two weeks. She is the first British volunteer to our school that introduced British accent to the student. We had some fun activities with both British and American accent naming the same item in English class. Outside of the campus, we've been to the school fair and played games together at each host family's home. We chat, make dumplings, and had a lot of fun while learning together. Both students and parents love her! We welcome her to come back anytime.

Ida est simplement un petit ange , elle sera toujours là bienvenue chez nous . Nous la recommandons vivement . Merci Ida pour ta belle présence .

Rajiv was an amazing host! He made us feel right at home in Unawatuna and was very helpful on many fronts. The hostel is very nice and, even though we went during low season, we were able to enjoy surfing and getting to know many other travellers, volunteers and locals. The work was good and made it even easier to get to know other travellers and we had a lot of free time. It was a perfect first Workaway experience and we will miss it!! Highly, highly recommended.

Edoardo stayed two weeks with us and has been helping with various projects like: a glasshouse, fencing, chipping, cleaning, gardening and more. It was a pleassure to host him and learn more about Italy/Tuscany. He is a very kind and respectfull person, always up for a good laugh or deep conversation. Our baby boy got along well with him too. He is tidy, helpful and he baked foccacia for us. We recommend Edoardo to any host and wish him a lot of beautiful and special encounters on his travel adventure. Grande amore fratello 💚

Ellen stayed in our hostel more than three weeks. She is really good with learning things. Communication is grate with management. Very friendly with everyone. Thanks a lot !

me and my girlfriend stayed with this lovely family for 6 weeks and it was perfect! the accommodation was a lovely house that we had all for us self with everything that we needed. the work around the house was super fun and they had a lot of good and interesting jobs for us to do. the family is very sporty and always up for a game of pickle ball, ping pong or disk golf! we would love to come back to this lovely family again and recommend it very much!

Excellent man, kind and generous and above all available and ready to be useful. He helped us a lot especially in the garden. In addition he is very familiar and we had good conversations and exchanges. He was also brave and caring. You can trust him completely and consider him a member of the family. He is welcome when he wants to come back.

Ahoj! My time with Marta, Michal, and their 3 amazing children in Havlickova Borova was an absolute dream come true. Gathering wild herbs for making teas and fresh salads, mending clothes with needle and thread, baking, creating epic meals and playing with three vivacious youngsters brought me so much Joy. Michal’s piano playing and Marta and Michal’s singing brought tears to my eyes. I made shoes, played games and explored the countryside with daily walks at sunrise and sunset. I am so grateful for my experience and expanding my family to include them.

This was my first workaway stay and was such a great introduction to the experience! My stay here was short yet sweet. The cob house is a beautiful piece of art, and you can feel every ounce of love and intention that was poured into it during the building process. I came in May, during a particularly hot season, and the weather was pretty unfavorable for many tasks to be done. Nevertheless, Raghav and Ansh were extremely welcoming, and it was such a fun experience to stay in the village, practice some Hindi, and soak in the beautiful views on the farm. I definitely plan on returning in the colder months, or when they start their next building project. Thank you thank you for all of the beautiful memories, til next time! Also the WiFi is strong, so this could be a good opportunity for someone who works remotely :)

Jack was great to have to stay. He was very helpful and tidy, He was also happy to try tasks that were new. He was very thorough, thoughtful and persistent to do a good job. He also went beyond - sending us an identification poster of our chickens to help us and others to learn their names!

Mathilde was great to have working with us. She was cheerful and contributed persistently and accurately to her tasks. She was flexible and happy to learn new tasks.

We struck gold with Beth & Matt. They looked after our small farm, including cattle & our dog Max, for 2 weeks while we were on holiday. They were happy & friendly. Our dog adored them and they managed all the stock work with ease. They cooked us a wonderful meal when we got home & cleaned our house top to bottom. We are super grateful they allowed us to have a great holiday, confident that our place was in good hands. Thank you to you both. We totally recommend Beth & Matt to any future owners/hosts.

Andrea is a wonderful young woman! She is graceful and calm and mature beyond her years. She is responsible, smart and perfectly capable to handle anything if given the opportunity to learn and grow. We are grateful to have had her as a part of the team and do miss her already!" Message to Andrea: "Good luck, sweetheart! You're always welcome here. Hope to see you again in the future.

I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to voulenteer here last minut. And for that I'm greatfull because it was such a nice experience and one of the highlights of my travels. So I highly recommend! The daily tasks was easy and fun and I quickly felt a part of the family here. Food was amazing and Sharom made sure to show us the best parts of the city! He took us hiking and didn't hesitate to drive us if we needed anything! Sharom is a very kind man with the biggest heart and he is very respectful and funny! I wish I could have stayed longer! But thank you for the opportunity.

Emilia was a last minute helper, who came to give us a hand for a couple days, but she did a wonderful job. Thank you Emilia for all your help. We wish you the best of luck during your worldwide journeys and adventures. Smooth sailing.

Las dos semanas que pasaron con nosotros fueron de verdad muy lindas, La pasamos muy bien juntas, cocinado siempre muy rico y compartiendo nuevas recetas ❤️ trabajando en la huerta, pintando paredes (las chicas estuvieron muy motivadas trabajando a full ¡muchas gracias por eso!!) paseando también, y fue hermoso cerrar nuestro tiempo juntos con el día de baile! !! Marilia es una persona muy fácil para compartir enseñar y aprender ❤️ Espero que te vaya muy bien en tu viaje y que vuelvas pronto 😘

They stay 3 weeks here. We many times play games after dinner. They work very well we built a small garage. They like to Onsen and chess.

Henry is a gem and helped us out with the mist important precious cargo.

We were very fortunate to have Claudia & Alex join our team from Jan – May 2024. Unlike general WorkAway stays they lived in shared accommodation with another WorkAway couple and cooked for themselves. Claudia’s duties consisted mainly of housekeeping - day to day up keep of three accommodations to a high standard which also entailed interacting with guests, stock-takes and the need to drive a rough gravel road to achieve this. Claudia is mature & professional, obliging and flexible with a great sense of humour (Tineke – Operations manager). Alex’s duties included preparing and presenting a variety of proteins, salads, sweets and desserts for our guests each day - working alongside others in our commercial kitchen. He also managed the produce gardens, grounds maintenance, deliveries and on accasion, IT work. Alex has good general knowledge and is well organised. He gets on with everyone, works well in a team as well as by himself (Rose – Kitchen manager). Happily Claudia and Alex go the extra mile, using their own initive while working under time pressure. They’re respectful, honest and kind with a lovely calm nature. I could go on and on... if you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to host these two, definitely go for it! We look forward to welcoming them back for our entire season this time Sept – May. Wishing you both safe and exciting travels through South America - see you in a few months :) Tineke, Kiri and the TCW team xx

I've spent a beautiful week with Gillian, Stephen and Zoe (their happy and passionate dog!) who welcomed me with open arms on my very first day. I helped out mostly with household chores and cooking. Gillian was very clear in communicating and discussing plans for the day, and even took me out to play bowls and a gathering with her Garden group which enriched my overall experience. Stephen took me around the town in his truck and we visited the beautiful beaches nearby too. There's always good chats, even whilst working on tasks, during mealtimes and time spent sitting outside in the sun. I enjoyed working in their garden, raking leaves and plucking oranges and other produce straight from their garden. I am also very thankful for their generosity to make sure the car is working well for my upcoming travels, and packing fruits and food for me to take away before I left. Thank you, Gillian, Stephen and Zoe for the wonderful stay!
