Marcia is such a lovely and helpful guest—fun, respectful of my home, resourceful and very capable, generous in the ways that she helped me, asked the right questions and listened really well. And she was brave :-) and kind to Workaway here even after I let her know about a plumbing problem that my plumber was waiting on parts to resolve!

Vom Workawayer (Erika) für Host
My three day stay with Cate at her cozy home in Oakland fit perfectly into my travels and enriched my experience of the area greatly. Cate was a very gracious host with whom I immediately felt very comfortable with. She communicated clearly about what she wanted to accomplish work-wise and was very appreciative of what I was able to get done.

She also went out of her way to invite interesting friends over to share lovely evenings of conversation. It was an experience that went beyond all expectations; although very short, it was incredibly sweet!Vom Host für Workawayer (Erika)
I am very grateful to Erika - a lovely person who brought life to my home projects, which were previously clunking along.
Erika had experience to draw on in every area where I needed help and was totally positive—a joy to be around.

A few other ways in which Erika helped me: harvesting lemons and figs and juicing a huge box of lemons. For the backyard build, sorting through and identifying usable tiles, running to the hardware store several times.
It would have taken me at least a month on my own to get done what Erika and I accomplished as a team in a few days. She was very generous in spirit and with her knowledge and time.
Erika, thank you!! I hope you reach out to me to be your host again!Feedback

My stay with Cate was just so wonderful. I feel like we really connected and had some many wonderful chats about life and everything in between.

I had the BEST time with Cate, she is such a lovely welcoming person and I felt at ease immediately in her lovely home.

Molly stayed 8 days with me to help me with downsizing. Her help and great company were wonderful. Molly is trustworthy, positive, mature, smart, creative and loads of fun.

Maki helped me with organizing the contents of my house and cooked terrific meals for me. I am in the process of downsizing and her help was phenomenal.

This was my first workaway experience.
I really enjoy meeting Cate, had a wonderful time helping and organizing her beautiful home.
Since this was my first time, Cate and I exchanged several messages and had one FaceTime meeting to get to know each other.
Cate is very kind and sweet lady, very open and easy to communicate with, as soon as we

Due to my traveling schedule, I was able to stay for only 3 nights/4 days, helping her organize/downsizing, kitchen, book cases, basement and bedrooms.
She gave me very clear instructions, how she wants things done, where they need to go, etc, which made us work as a great team. I am currently traveling with my car, drove to several book stores and donation locations to bring boxes, which gave me a surprise reconnecting to one of my friends from 80's that I had lost contact.
He was working at one of the book store!
Cate was so kind to asked me what kind of food I like/dislike and restrictions. I helped cooking some meals at her kitchen. She invited me to her friend's Oakland Warriors game night/Gourmet BBQ sausage hot dog one evening, and daily morning coffee & breakfast with her.
Cate, Thank you so much, I feel so grateful for welcoming me to your lovely home in Rockridge and trusted me with your organizing/downsizing work exchange.Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
