Description
I started traveling using Workaway from Ontario to Victoria, BC. It was one of the best experiences I have had in my life. Meeting new people and learning new things while learning about gardening by working in different gardens all across British Columbia. Some of the tasks I did in work aways were chopping wood, cleaning chicken house, sanding and painting furniture and the house, cleaning and sorting out certain rooms, selling unwanted objects on market place, and shoveling snow on snow days. I was hosted and treated with so much love all across Canada. I am flying back to Toronto in July and would love to be back as a workawayer and meet new people. I love hiking, and exploring hidden gems, while learning new things and exploring spirituality back as an adult. I love a bit of amateur photography as well and love trying out new things in life.

Nirmal was a pleasure to host. He was always upbeat and eager to communicate. He learned rapidly and was very dedicated to completing his tasks. He got on well with the animals and in particular our dog, Mattie. He did uber strawberry picking and freezing. He learned to weed whack and worked to make our property look good. We enjoyed meals with… read more

I stayed around 11 days at Susan and Doug's place. They were always super helpful and adjusting. I liked working long hours and having my off days together and they were alright with it. Doug showed me how to use the different tools and was super precise and patient. I loved my time at their place and felt really valued and had a great time.… read more

It was such an amazing time staying at Alli's place. Truth be told I did not feel like leaving when I had to. It felt like home away from home. So the garden was really beautiful with a wide variety of veggies, flowers, and greens. It was a really great learning experience when you get to work with Alli as she tries to share as much knowledge as… read more

Nirmal stayed with us for almost a month. He was new to life on a farm and adapted well to being away from the big city and living in the countryside. He worked well independently as well as with someone else. He seemed to always be in good humor and didn't hesitate to ask for clarification of tasks when required. Wishing you all the best in your… read more
