Vom Host für Workawayer (FernC170)
Fern is a fantastic volunteer: extremely capable, kind, focused, intelligent and hardworking. They use their initiative to do any task well, are very good at working unsupervised and can turn their hand to almost anything from weeding in the garden to complex computer work. As a guest they are quiet and appreciative of whatever food they are given

Meanwhile we hope they find interesting and challenging hosts that can benefit from their wide range of skills and determination to make a positive difference wherever they are. Thank-you Fern and we hope to see you again next year!

Vom Host für Workawayer (Barbora & Ondřej)
Barbora was a fantastic volunteer. She managed to do more work with a baby on her back and two small children and a husband to look after than most volunteers manage without such encumbrances! She organised my pots and picked cherries and raspberries, spent so long rolling tea that she injured her wrist (everyone else got bored but she just kept
… read more going!) and made food and generally did whatever needed doing both inside and outside the house. The boys were a joy and all helped in little ways as long as it was interesting and it was a real pleasure to have the whole family to stay.
Because of the drought Barbora and Ondrey had to spend a lot of time watering and I really appreciate all their work and diligence in keeping my plants alive!
The family as a whole had a lovely way of engaging with nature and were interested in the environment. I really liked Ondrey and Barbora's views on bringing up children and life generally and they all seemed to enjoy weeding trees and removing protectors in the forest. I hope the children will return when they are young adults as I am sure they will become wonderful people!
It was difficult eating with them and in retrospect it would have been better not to have tried as there were too many restrictions but I applaud them for eating the same food as their children (all cooked by Barbora) and the children ate really well (I just like a lot of chilli, mushrooms and eggs all of which were taboo). They were really good at eating their 'greens' and absolutely loved the kombucha which I hadn't really thought of as a children's drink before.
Generally it was good to have a family to stay. I think it is nice to have children around, especially such lovely, interesting and polite ones, and Barbora and Ondrey were equally friendly, interested and engaging!
If you have space for a family then you should accept them...I am glad I did!

We spent almost 4 weeks at Rosie’s farm in July 2022.

It’s amazing what Rosie managed to accomplish on her farm. What used to be grazing grounds 30 years ago is now turned into woodlands consisting mainly of native deciduous trees. In a very positive way she changed the landscape around the town of Insch, bringing in biodiversity and life.
Our work at the farm included gardening (watering, weeding, preparing beds for vegetables), picking fruits (cherries, raspberries, elder flower), tree management (care of trees planted in previous years) and path maintenance (strimming).
We were glad to meet Rosie’s two adult children and other workawayers/helpers, which made our stay even more interesting and enjoyable. Also, Pepper the dog is the best pet to be around kids!
Thank you, Rosie, for having us on your farm and broadening our knowledge on so many things! This was a lifetime experience for us and our children!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

I still can't believe how lucky I was to end up in this place! I was going to stay four weeks here, but in the end it's been two months - and they were wonderful.

What I loved most about the work at the farm was being outside all day and learning about plants. There are so many different things to do, and you can never know what is going to be your next task. Sometimes I stayed with Beatrice and Kevin which was equally nice. They are great people aswell and Leith Hall is a very beautiful place. It was so exciting to play the old grand piano!
Rosie's family and friends made me feel as part of the group quickly. We had game nights every week and often cooked together. They were always happy to show me how to do things I didn't do before.
It's important to Rosie that everybody gets the best out of their trip, so she'll be more than happy to advise you on what places to visit or where to hike. I did many more fun things than I thought would be possible in the countryside :D
I highly recommend staying at Rosie's farm. I already miss it and I am definitely going to come back!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

The work was interesting and varied. It included weeding, planting and some DIY work around the farm among other things. Rosie and her family are super creative in multiple ways – from playwriting to farm improvement projects – and it was really stimulating to get to listen to them bouncing ideas off each other. They know so much about so much!
The farm and the surrounding countryside are beautiful, with plenty of options for scenic walks in your spare time. Leith Hall is also class – the house has an interesting history and you could spend hours happily wandering around the garden and estate. But the best part of visiting there is getting to spend time with Rosie’s lovely daughter Beatrice! Insch is on the Aberdeen to Inverness train line which makes exploring more of Scotland on days off easily doable and I loved getting to spend time in both cities.
Rosie was really accommodating about work hours and time off and she and her family were so inclusive in terms of social activities with them and their friends, including games nights and barbeques.

Wenn du kein britischer oder irischer Staatsbürger, Bürger eines Commonwealth-Landes mit Aufenthaltsgenehmigung in Großbritannien oder Inhaber eines BNO-Reisepasses bist bzw. kein Tier 5 Youth Mobility Scheme (Working Holiday) Visum hast, um in Großbritannien zu arbeiten oder zu studieren, dann kann dir ab dem 1. Januar 2021 die Einreise nach Großbritannien verweigert werden, sofern du nicht im Besitz eines gültigen Visums und einer entsprechenden Genehmigung bist. Um mehr drüber zu erfahren, was für ein Visum und was für eine Arbeitserlaubnis Staatsbürger deines Landes benötigen, solltest du dich VOR DEINER ABREISE von zu Hause an die Botschaft in deinem Land wenden.
