Vom Host für Workawayer (Lena)
Lena and Nina stayed with us for approx. 2.5 weeks. We would have happily hosted them for longer! They were both very easily integrated into our family and worked with care and diligence on every task they were given. They were also very independent in being able to happily make themselves breakfast and lunch from the makings in our kitchen.

They also left their room immaculate:) we miss them already and would happily host either of them back anytime! Any host would benefit from their hard work and openness to joining in on family activities and adventures!

Warmland Farm has been one of the most amazing places either of us have ever been! The scenery is gorgeous and the animals are super adorable. Heidi, Kelly, Jack and Lincoln were so nice to us and we honestly felt like part of the family. We’d never heard of Vancouver Island before but staying with these guys have made us want to settle here. This

We highly recommend anyone who wants to experience the Canadian life(with plenty of hockey and Tim Hortons haha) to do a workaway here. They are amazingly accommodating when our starting date got moved and we stayed with some of their awesome friends (hi Dwayne and Maria!). Nice, funny, genuine people that showed us nothing but good times and the Canadian way! :)Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Luise was wonderful and easily fit into the family. My sons loved playing with her and we enjoyed chatting with her. Things were not ideal because of the pandemic but Luise made the best of it with us and was one of the hardest working travellers we have ever hosted.

I had a really great time at the Farm. They made me feel so welcome at their home and Heidi always made sure I was comfortable. It was a difficult time due to Covid 19, so I couldn't enjoy the area that much, but they still tried to show me around and took me on a short hike and a boat tour.

We’ve spent one week with Heidi and her family. The pick up from Nanaimo and the warm welcoming was just the beginning. Heid was so kind to prepare a separat bed for us, so that both of us could have their separate space. In our free time we were able to either take their kayaks to the water or their bikes to Duncan. They even took us on one of

(boat trip past plenty of sea lions to a beautiful island where we sat down by the fire and enjoyed the silence) All in all we had the best first experience with workaway. it goes waaay beyond anything we could have imagined! :)Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Great experience hosting these two - would welcome them back anytime!
Vom Host für Workawayer (Marie)
Marie was a perfect match for our farm and family. She was easy to incorporate into our daily life and was not afraid of some very hard work. The tasks we had to get through were particularly intensive as we prep the farm for winter but Marie cheerfully dug in to each task and did each job with dedication and thoroughly. The whole family enjoyed

Heidi who is very warmly, Kelly with nice humour, their 2 funny Boys, 3 cats each different as you can imagine, the nicest dog I've ever met, lots of ducks and colourful birds and lately Magnus the lama gave me a very nice time with many experiences. Everyone was welcoming me very well and we got easily used to each other. All in all I felt very

So thank you for the good time and all the things you shared with me!
When I get the chance to, I will definitely come back.Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

I enjoyed my stay with Heidi and Kelly soo much! I was welcomed warmly into their family and they made me feel comfortable immediately!
During my stay I mainly helped in the household and did some gardening work, and Heidi alsways made sure that I was comfortable with doing the work!
Aside from that I also felt integrated into their everyday

Heidi brought me along to her Yoga classes, I got to see Lincoln in a play with his drama class at school and I even got the chance to join the whole family on a day trip in their boat! That was really wonderful! Also I always enjoyed spending time with Jack and Lincoln, whether we went for a bike ride, had an ice cream together or just spent some time in the garden - it was always great fun being surrounded by so much energy!
So all I can say is that I love looking back on the great experience I had staying with the whole family and thank you once again for having me!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Heidi, Kelly and their children were fantastic hosts. They are a warm, friendly and relaxed family who took great care of us! We especially loved Heidi's tasty salads which she made with ingredients from her garden. The work is fulfilling and Heidi is accommodating.

I had the most incredible time staying with Heidi and her lovely family! Their home is in a beautiful peaceful location with a relaxed atmosphere, just a 20 minute walk from the Cowichan Bay shops and harbour. The work was varied which made everyday interesting; some tasks were more outdoorsy like gardening or changing the animal's water and

Sophie and Joe were fantastic to host and we would gladly invite them back anytime. Not only are they self motivated and completed a great number of projects for us, but they were a pleasure to learn from and blended in with our family routine flawlessly! This couple would be an valuable asset to any farm. It was an absolute pleasure to host them!

Heidi and Kelly are amazing hosts.
They made us feel at home from the second we stepped through the door. This is a lovely rural setting great for relaxing and taking respite from traveling while feeling useful and getting jobs done. Good for short work aways (1-2 weeks). They have so many different pets and small farm animals, it was great
