Hi My name is Manjil. I am the principal of a school in rural Nepal. The School is the only free private educational institution in the country. This is its first year. Without Volunteers, the project will not be able to run in the upcoming years. That would be terrible because a lot of children would be very sad :( There are many things you could do here. You could help teach or be involved in other ideas. Me and my friends here are constantly trying to come up with new ideas to help support this free school. We have agricultural land, art projects and construction ideas too. The families of the students support the school with vegetables and fruits and are always ready to help out in order to keep sustaining this free school.

Region: Toowoomba on the Great Dividing Range, Queensland

At the moment we have a space from February 27. We live about 30 minutes north of Toowoomba, two hours west of Brisbane on 80 acres. It's a new place and there is lots of work to do, so we just need help in the house to free us up to get out and do the landscaping, fencing etc (which you can help us with if you prefer to be outdoors). Mum works and is also doing a PhD and Dad is away with work most of the time, so it's hard getting through the list of things we want to do! We have some horses, although we only have one that can be ridden at the moment, so our Workawayer will be able to ride sometimes if they are experienced at riding (some competition experience is what we would be looking for in jumping, dressage, western or reining). If you are hoping to ride, you must be a competent rider with fairly recent riding experience as you will have to ride by yourself most of the time. Having siad all that, it is perfectly fine if you have no horse experience at all :-)) A driver's licence and safe and competent driving skills are absolutely necessary as we are way out of town. We have access to beautiful riding and bushwalking country as our house is surrounded by bush with lots of wild animals and birds. At the moment we have a space from February 27. Much of the work we will give you will be house or garden related while I work or study and then on weekends we will tackle bigger jobs or take horses to competitions. There is plenty of time to go bushwalking with the dogs or ride and explore the area.

Region: Kudat, Sabah

I'm currently in Australia so not back in Borneo until March so looking for people from then. Time is completely optional - stay for a night, stay for a month! We grow Sea Cucumbers for the Asian food market! 2 Australian guys living up near the Tip of Borneo in Kudat. Pretty quiet place so will suit people looking to get away to a remote place and do something a little different...

We are Ged and Karen, an English couple with a young daughter looking for a couple of able bodies and minds to help with a brand new project. Having lived around the world, from Moscow to Kuala Lumpur it is time to settle in one place for a while! We’ve had an amazing experience over the last year with workaways some of whom are I’m sure going to be friends for life! Our vision is to develop a mixed smallholding (pigs, sheep and poultry) with a small eco campsite. What we are starting with is a beautiful property (already renovated), three hectares (7 acres) of attached land, gorgeous views in the South of the Loire region and importantly a good stock of wine :) The property is a peaceful 4km bike ride from Neuvy-Saint-Sepulchre where you’ll find bars restaurants shops and a beautiful fishing lake. We are also very close to a bus route allowing access to the beautiful old towns of Aregnton-sur-Creuse (train station), Le Chatre and Chateauroux(train station). We are also located very close to the Brenne Nation Park, with its ‘thousand lakes’ and parkland it’s a nature lovers paradise.
