Commentaires, feedbacks et évaluations Workaway

Those two weeks at Eaglehawk were truly incredible! Thank you Len and Toni. You are great people, I felt so good. Very happy with the work and the idyllic setting. See you soon I hope and thank you for all your valuable advice :)

We really enjoyed the girls, both Mayuri and her friend, Richi. They helped with the computer marketing working to get it set up for when we are ready to launch. They also helped with the cooking and cleaning in the kitchen, which was a big help for Priyanka, our cook. They worked very well on their own without supervision. Both of these lovely girls are welcome anytime to come back to visit or help us on our project. I hope they do like a couple of our other Indian friends do and come back yearly when India gets a bit warm to spend a couple months with us.

I’ve spendet an incredible and unforgettable time at Torills place. She is an amazing person, I needed some time to find the right words to describe her because Torill is one of the nicest but also one of the most fascinating persons I have ever met. I felt welcomed from the first moment and it was hard for me to leave her and also Olga, the cutest dog, with her whole own charcter. Torill has seen a lot of the world, you just have to ask her and she will tell you the funniest and craziest storys. You could feel the passion and the spirit she has in her life, it affected me immediatly and I took her to my heart from the very beginning. During my stay at her place we pursued bunch of masterplans (it’s the way we used to call them), which included a lot of different stuff and activities. We spendet a lot of time just talking and I really enjoyed her company, she gave me so much inspiration and joy. I will always remember my stay, Torill and of course Olga with a big smile on my face and a lot of nice memories.

The Workaway experience was incredible and was perfect for us. You can explore the whole island and we have to say we loved the Big Island. The accommodation is in the jungle on the greener side of the island. This means that it can rain from time to time (at least at our time of year), but this didn't bother us at all while we were working or exploring, on the contrary, it was a super pleasant climate. Mark also rents out a car, which makes it super easy to explore the island. From snorkeling, hiking, surfing and swimming, there is something for everyone. The work is only three hours a day and is varied. You can let off steam with lots of equipment (from flamethrowers to weed whackers), painting, cleaning and cleaning up lots of poop from the puppies. Mark is a great guy, very relaxed, always something funny to sax. But he is a miserable poker player. So if you want to earn some extra money, be sure to challenge him to a game. Thanks for everything Mark and thank you for letting us get to know Hawaii through you. We felt very comfortable and can only recommend it to others. Say hello to the puppies from us!

We all loved having Naoko and Baba stay. I was ready to be inspired and I was, by these 2 lovely people. Nao is a dynamo, brilliant at organising, full of energy and very health aware. Also a reiki practioner! Baba is the youngest 81 year old you will ever meet, anxious to contribute by both cleaning, cooking and gardening, but mainly by giving me hope for my future as I age😍 Her favourite phrase was "I am healthy, I am strong 💪 " Such a privilege to have these two fabulous people stay.

Thank you for the wonderful time I had at your place!! The Königsmühle is a lovely, historical property packed with mindful, positive and skilful people willingly to share their knowledge. In the short time I had the chance to learn about gardening, clay construction work, growing vegetables, and last but definitely not least about getting in touch with myself. Living in the mill means contributing your strengths. There is something for everyone with the wide range of tasks. At the same time, the place offers plenty of opportunities to start your own projects and freely express your own creativity. It was a great gift to be part of your lives. Big hug & see you soon :) PS. the food was more than delicious

Felicita has so many qualities that left me breathless at times as I came from such a different generation. Felicita had the CAN DO, WILL DO attitude and was Wise beyond her years. I discovered a leak in a pipe on my house one night. I came in and told her I was going to have to ring a plumber the next day. She immediately responded No GG I will fix it tomorrow! and she did. She is not big in statue but huge in ability. Full of good sense and will gladly advise if you ask her opinion but she is a quiet soul and never intrudes unless you invite her but loves music and dancing with a coffee in the morning. Felicita has given me great advice as a new host and to me tools in my tool box and maybe more self confidence to try things outside my normal wheelhouse. She is a sponge for learning new skills nothing is daunting to her. I have missed her greatly and know I'll see her again. Go well my special friend. Love GG

We spent 2 weeks with Sally and Steve. We helped out in housekeeping from around 930am-1230pm ish every day. Work was clear and not too strenuous. We had 3meals a day with good ingredients available to us for breakfast and lunch and a meal from the cafe every evening which was very tasty. The area is beautiful with walks 3km to beach or a swimming hole and Daintree discovery centre. Easier if you have a car but we found if easy to hitch hike. Accommodation in jungle huts. Comfortable beds. Important to leave all food in the kitchen as you are living close to wildlife. We were lucky to see Cassowary and some beautiful snakes and spiders. Thanks Sally and Steve for having us!

Grace is one super special young woman. I was so pleased she saw my last minute listing and chose to come to GG's farm. My heart glows so often when I think Grace came for a short break but left such a huge impression. She is very bright, energetic, independent and with her engineering background is highly skilled with tools even using a chainsaw to rip up and replace a rotten wooden floor section in my feed shed that I warned her to beware of! She instantly responded "I can fix that" before I knew it She had ripped up the carpet exposing the rotten wood. She went to the shed of many tools, chose what she needed then found suitable wood and continued working until the job was finished even the carpet back down that day! Grace is full of fun & highly motivated. She was instantly loved by everyone and my animals. My big team of workawayers & I enjoyed a bonfire with wine compliments of Grace and were serenaded with her miniature trumpet. I'll never enjoy a bonfire again as much. If you miss out on hosting Grace you've missed out on a treasure. I refer to Grace as my beautiful machine. Bed here for you anytime Grace. Love GG

This is such a beautiful spot. We worked three hours in the morning, and finished every day with a beautiful swim in the river before lunch. Everyone was super knowledgable and we learned a lot about permaculture and organic farming. I stayed one week with two friends and we had a really great time. Lots of time to chill and chat with the other volunteers. The food was great too. Please message me for any more info :)

The time I spent here was really special, many thanks to all the members. The month I spent with you felt like being at home. It was super amazing place to chill. I will always be grateful for the opportunity. Also I really miss Wilson and chantilly. They are such a cute and friendly. wish you to keep reaping so many successes. Thank you all!!

Didem and fatith are just awsome as parents! They made my life easy, they wellcame me in a way İ dont have enough words of gratitude to them. İt was such a home. They are always kind and friendly, with very nice conversations. The little Alp is very active and he likes playing all the time and also painting. İ learnt many things about turkey, their food, culture... İt was a great experience with nice people and İ totally recomend

Vicktoria and Luis were great workaways. They were friendly, polite and respectful of our property. The work they did was mostly in the garden but they worked hard, followed all instructions and were happy to help out whenever we needed them! The times we spend over dinner were really fun, especially playing games and we enjoyed the meals they cooked for us. We were happy to have them stay with us longer than originally planned and we sad to see them go. They were definately one of the best workaway teams we have had stay with us. We wish them well with their adventures and hope to see them again before they go home.

I couldn't have asked for better hosts. Jan and Inge have so much knowledge to share, and they are as helpful as could be. They made sure I had everything I needed, was comfortable, and that the work was within my physical limits. We had a lot of fun with it, planting trees, working on fun projects with the kids, and I got to help build a fence with repurposed natural material. Their vision of planting a food forest is so inspiring. It was great to be a part of. What a special place and what a special family. I really enjoyed the conversations and the connections. I really didn't expect to take such a liking to their amazing children either.

Giacomo stayed with me for two nights and helped me clearing some dead wood in the forest in preparation for replanting. He was an enthusiastic worker and good company. He was the perfect house guest, being clean and tidy and a great cook. His English was perfect, and he obviously had a wide knowledge of all sorts of subjects. It was very pleasant sitting around the fire with him. He got on very well with the other guests in the house at the time. He comes highly recommended as both a guest and a worker.

It so nice to have Nico and Fefe stay here. They are lovely people - kind, generous, helpful and fun. It would have been great just to hang out with them, but they accomplished so much too - transformed my garden, tidied and organized my house, and ate all the dinner leftovers. : ) I was fun to have people to cook for and and play crib with, I taught them the game and they got really good! I so appreciated their stay and think of them fondly every time I'm outside enjoying my (now) beautiful backyard. They also made a car travel-bed while here for the next portion of their journey, I think it worked out great and they learned a bit about building in the process. If you get the opportunity to spend time with them, it'll be time well spent.

nick spent 2 months here. he is a very nice young man. he is very considerate well mannered,polite. was great to have him here,he was willing to everything i asked and did it well.once he got the hang of the splitting maul he was a machine. stained the back of the house pulled many shrimp and crab pots, and helped recover a excavator took a few nature hikes. nick is a must have guest i rightly recommend him. he is welcome here anytime.

Jenny is a mature woman, perfectly capable of working independently. She communicated clearly any doubts or concerns when training my horses - valuable feedback I gratefully received. Jenny adapted easily to my variable program. She is a seasoned equestrian who nicely trained my youngest Arabian yet Jenny clearly communicated any doubts concerning the nuances of her task. She is an amiable companion and easy conversationalist. Jenny is always welcomed back here.

My stay at this place was fantastic. Jaime and the other workawayers made me feel like at home since the beginning. The house is beautiful and Queretaro is a very cool and safe city. Everything I needed was walking distance and it is very easy to make friends. The work is super easy and fair. If you are looking for a place to settle for a while and experience mexican life, I absolutely recommend this place! You are very likely to fall in love with Frita, the four legged queen of the house…♥️♥️♥️

Noah's visit was wonderful in every way. By some alignment of the stars, he showed up just as I needed his skill set to finish a project - Noah is a fabulously talented cabinetmaker and carpenter. Beyond the obvious joy of having someone take a huge load off your shoulders, he's a super nice guy and fun to be with. We had lots in common, great conversations, and maybe a bit too much wine. It was cool to have a peer-to-peer friendship with someone about the same age as my kids. I wish Noah all the best in everything, and hope our paths cross again.
