Description
Giving form to our wanderlust, one adventure at a time :) We love to travel whilst experiencing the variety of beauty and culture that the world has to offer, with a focus on all-round verdant immersion!
We consider ourselves creative, empathetic, dedicated and peaceful human beings, and hope to nurture this by finding and connecting with new parts of the world that help us to keep growing into our best selves.
Beware roots, beware the creeping feeling that you belong! Learning to unroot ourselves and know that anywhere can be your home as long as you put love into what you are doing, offer your unique self as a gift to others, and immerse into how held we are by the natural world once we return to it.

Laissé par le workawayer (Lola & Nathaniel ) pour l'hôte (Help out at our beautiful ...)

This was our first workaway stay when moving to Canada, and we couldn't have found a more loving, energetic and verdant space to call home for what ended up being 4 months! The family who hosted us will be remembered for all their loving energy and interesting conversations. Henry in particular is the backbone for vibrant enthusiasm on the farm,… read more often bringing an enormous diversity of activities and tasks to each day. His wealth of knowledge about so many areas of interest, including homesteading, livestock, and mechanics makes an experience here one full of learning and pushing boundaries!
We started our work at the end of the flurry of apple harvesting season, and then flowed into the more gentle pace of winter farm life that can be really dependant on the weather. We feel that we have been able to enjoy a balance of projects, regular chores and new learning alongside our own free time to adventure on Cortes but also the surrounding islands too. There are so many amazing spaces accessible on foot from the farm - mountains, lakes & the ocean, with the occasional howling wolves as your soundtrack! It is a time of year where we were involved in lots of cooking/preserving projects, and have had the opportunity to learn how to make cheese & butter from milking each morning/evening; we feel that a passion for food is quite necessary to relish in the bountiful nature of this farm and its produce, and for the communal meals everyday. A special note must be made about the floating sauna, which gave us the opportunity for evening relaxation after the morning's work.
We stayed in the bunkhouse cabin, one of the many fantastic spaces on the farm built for volunteers to stay in. With it's own bathroom (other volunteers use the outhouse) and wood stove, the cabin became a wonderfully cosy space that we were lucky to call our own. The farmhouse was the centre of communal activities here: where cheesemaking, food processing, meals, and laughter was shared freely. There was always a very reasonable and appreciated work expectation with everything we did.
The farm is very secluded in it's beautiful corner of the world, and if you are people who like to have modern amenities/transport freedom/a wider social life then this might be tricky for you over longer stays. It is important for people staying here to have some level of self-motivation. While Henry is a vital resource to draw from, his energy can sometimes be a bit scattered and personal projects will help you to feel grounded in your own passions without getting swept up in the breadth of jobs that need doing.

Everyone we met over our time here were lovely souls to connect with and get dirty alongside!
Henry, thank you so much for your love & care in our highs and lows, for inspiring us and supporting us on our future ventures! We'll absolutely be back to visit over our time in Canada and hope we can meet up in other wild spaces too :)
big squishes! <3

Giuliano and Joy's berry farm was my first workaway stay and I couldn't have felt more at home in such a beautiful corner of the world. I had planned to stay 2 weeks in summer but ended up being there a month!
Tasks can vary between physical jobs and harvesting/gardening to selling the delicious fruits and products they make. The best… read more
