Cecile joined our family for 10 days, we loved learning the difference in our cultures. She has a fast wit and quiet but self assured personality. We learnt new card games in which she was very patient in teaching… it was a regular thing to sit down after dinner together, play cards and chat! Being from a family with two other siblings she got on
… read more well with our teenager, being able to connect with her was really nice to see. Cecile blended in well as super helpful and always keen to share her knowledge and thoughts. She did the little tasks with skill and confidence. We would recommend Cecile to any work away family she is kind fun and great to have around! We hope to see her again before she heads back to France 🇫🇷 😀😀😀😀

Amazing and unique workaway. I spent 10 days in this beautiful farm with incredible landscapes. I spent a lot of time with the family and we had many great times. They did show me around, they included me in all of their activities and they introduced me to many people. It was a lot of fun and time did fly. We had diner all together every day and

This was exactly what I did expect from a woofing and I highly recommend and wish to everyone that want a proper kiwi experience in a very funny and very generous family to stop there. You won't regret it ✨
Thank you Maz and Paul 😊

It was an absolute pleasure to have Mary Kate stay with us. We had wonderful conversations and learnt a lot about her piece of the world. She was so friendly and open, she fitted into our family so nicely. Helping in the garden was no problem for her and even sharing a movie with one of our daughters. A very self aware lady… we wish her all the

Last month with the family in Masterton was unforgettable. I was very warmly welcomed by the four and got many great opportunities to explore the area.

We have absolutely loved having Annika stay with us. A wonderful young woman. She fitted into our home and family.
