Vom Workawayer (Moritz) für Host
I had a wonderful stay with Deborah and David! They made sure I felt at home and included and enabled me to explore the city. Thank you for everything! Also they're dogs are very cute and I loved taking them for walks.
Vom Host für Workawayer (Moritz)
We loved having Moritz to stay. He has great practical handyman skills, and he is hard-working, conscientious, and able to get on with the chores without needing supervision. He fitted into our household very well, and our dogs completely adored him.
Vom Host für Workawayer (Sian)
Sian is a talented artist, and is very conscientious, and we had a lot of fun working together. She can also use her initiative and get on with the chores when I am busy. We would have her back here any time!
Vom Workawayer (Sian) für Host
I had a fantastic week in Island Bay with Deborah, David and Matt. It was such a great location and so much to see and do with the use of a kayak and bike.
Deborah is a fantastic cook and I loved playing Rummikub with her! Would absolutely recommend them to anyone... such a great family!
Vom Host für Workawayer (MonikaMol)
We really loved having Monika stay with us. She was great with the chores, and could be relied on to use her initiative and just get on with what needed doing whether I was there or not, from keeping on top of cleaning and kitchen chores to mending and ironing and setting up a garage sale I had booked. She fitted in like she has always been our

I spent my last week in New Zealand at the beautiful place with amazing views in Wellington. I enjoyed dancing classes with David, walks with Matt and working with Deborah. The tasks given to me were varied and interesting. It was another great workaway experience.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Merle)
Merle is hard-working, speaks good English, mature beyond her years, and follows instructions well. We really enjoyed having her here.
Kristah was a delight to host - very conscientious and skillful with our paint preparation and cleaning chores, and able to see what needed doing and just get on with it, without needing constant supervision and feedback. She is great company, and we had a lot of fun together. She is welcome back here any time!
Deborah, David (and the dogs) were amazing hosts to me over the recent holiday period. They were so generous in many ways which made my stay so comfortable! We shared many good meals and chats over my stay, and even got to enjoy a dance class with David! They shared their local knowledge with me, took me to local spots/ on errand runs when I

Thank you so much Deborah and David, I wish you all the best for 2025 and if I have to come back to Wellington, I will be in touch for sure!
Victoria was one of our best ever workawayers. Our oven and freezer have never been this clean, and she was so helpful with some sewing I needed to be done, and with the Christmas dance catering and set-up - I kept telling her to stop because she had done enough hours, but next minute she was back in our kitchen. We knew she liked dancing, so we

I spent five days with Deborah and David, which were my last days in New Zealand before returning home. I couldn't imagine a better ending to my two-month Oceania Workaway experience than the opportunity to participate in David and Deborah's dance club Christmas party on the last evening. It was a wonderful chance for me to dance all ballroom
… read more dances for four hours straight. Thank you, Deborah, for lending me shoes and a dress for the occasion! And thank you, David, for introducing me to sequence dances and for allowing me to dance line dances in your course one another day.
Before that, we prepared for the party together: we made many different buffet dishes and decorated the hall. At this place in Wellington, I had the opportunity to do also work I hadn't done before my workaway time: I adjusted (sewed) some jeans and a curtain, also I cleaned the kitchen.
These five days also included walks in the Wellington hills, a visit to the botanical garden, evening dinner conversations, and of course, petting the lovely Harry and Angie. With David and Deborah, it's incredibly easy to feel at home because they are a lovely couple who genuinely care for each other, enjoy joking together, and are very active. You immediately feel very comfortable there. They live their everyday life, and you can simply join in.
I had a great time with Deborah and David in beautiful Island Bay, Wellington for about a week in March. I was set to work with Deborah clearing out and reorganising the garage with its tools, materials and items for garage sales in aid of a local charity, which culminated in having enough space to store their kayak (which I promptly took out for

The pair were kind and open, with David taking me along to a fortnightly ballroom dance club which was super fun and Deborah being insistent that I have a bed at theirs if I ever need it. They have two small dogs, Harry and Angie, who can bark and jump up, but they are cute little beings who love to go on walks on the beach right opposite the house. Thank you Deborah and David for being so welcoming :)
Vom Host für Workawayer (Elizabeth)
Liz is hard working and conscientious, and good company. We would have her back here any time!!!
Vom Host für Workawayer (Haruka)
Haruka also had a part-time job in a city restaurant, so this and her social life impacted on the time and energy she had available for our chores.
Vom Workawayer (Kristen & Loren) für Host
We had a lovely few days with Deborah, David (and of course the doggies Angie and Harry)! Work was clearly communicated and very reasonable. Meals were lovely, especially the pavlova 😊 The view from the house can't be beat, and we really enjoyed our off times visiting the beach across the street. This was our last stop on our NZ journey, and we
