We had the pleasure of hosting Isti at our home in Galicia, and we can wholeheartedly recommend him to any future host. Isti was incredibly hard-working, motivated, and quick to learn. But he also brought with him a wealth of knowledge, especially in tree pruning. He showed us how to prune trees professionally, and we genuinely learned a lot from

He carried out a wide range of tasks with great care and efficiency: expertly pruning various trees, preparing a deep mulch, building a structure for vines, installing a drip irrigation system, and helping us dig and prepare the soil. His pace was steady and focused, and he approached every task with both precision and enthusiasm.
On a personal level, Isti was open-minded, easy to talk to, and brought a great spirit of exchange to our home. We truly enjoyed our conversations and his fun, curious personality. Our board game nights were a lot of fun. We are looking forward to having him back any time and highly recommend him to other hosts.
We stayed and worked on this project for just under a week right at the beginning of the season.
The work was satisfying as we felt we were really making a difference helping with their garden, trees, and home improvement. It was cool to see the garden beds take shape and know they are on their way to self sustainability!

Always mindful of the weather, Robert kindly offered to pick us up after a long hike up the mountain turned rainy!
For us, the best part of our stay was the cultural exchange as we shared meals and conversations with our hosts and their extended family. Everyone was generous with their time and it felt like we were all at home as we played board games together after dinner or just chatted after lunch.
Thank you Robert and Blanca for sharing your home!
We had the pleasure of hosting Hanee and Rachel for nearly a week. They arrived at a particularly busy time as we were preparing the planting beds and pruning trees. Thanks to their skills and dedication, we made twice as much progress as expected. Now, the trees are thriving, and the planting beds are ready for new crops.
Hanee and Rachel are

Hanee’s flatbread, their Mexican dish, and Rachel’s moussaka were all absolutely delicious. From the very beginning, they felt like part of the family, and it was bittersweet to see them go.

Larissa and Marvin stayed with us for a couple of days in mid-September. They helped plant garlic, transplant strawberries, weed, water the trees, and prune bushes. Although they did not have previous gardening experience, they gave their best. We had enjoyable conversations, played board games together, and they even prepared an apple crumble.

We were traveling on the Caminho Português and spontaneously stayed a few days with Blanca and Robert. Robert traveled back to Germany at the beginning of our stay, so it was just the three of us. We enjoyed the brief acquaintance. The food was an absolute highlight; almost all the ingredients came fresh from the garden. Our work included setting

We really enjoyed this first Workaway experience and would have loved to stay longer. We learned a lot and felt very comfortable with Blanca.

We had the chance to stay with Blanca and Robert for a week and loved the experience! They made us feel very welcome and comfortable in there home.

It was a pleasure having Jim and Gabrielle with us. They are not only polite and clean but also proactive, hard-working, and pleasant to be around. Their experience with building and working with tasks on the land was evident in how dedicated, fast, and efficient they were.

We had a great time with Blanca & Robert. Immediately we felt welcomed and soon felt part of the family. It was great to learn from them, both on the land and in the kitchen.

Seán and Monika stayed more than a week with us, although we had initially planned it for 5 days. Once we got to meet them, we were very sad that they would leave. They worked very diligently in the tasks in the land and they also helped with everything at home. It felt like they were part of the family. Seán used previous abilities to fix some
