I am very grateful for this opportunity my life gave to me. It was a great time full of different types of work (reconstructing chicken house, washing bottles, feeding butterflies, taking dogs for a walk, etc). I found my work with Alisa very comfortable because we have very similar vision how to do things in a proper way (even washing dishes). I… read more

Fabulous!! This was my first Workaway and I'm so thankful for the experience! I was made to feel like family from the moment I stepped through the door. If you want to dig in and learn about what it is to truly live an off-the-grid type life, this is the place. I didn't bring any exceptional skills, except good worth ethic and a willing to jump in… read more

Usually with a couple you get one dud (!) and a good worker, however, Sara and Stephen were a great exception! They work really well together and their skills complement each other. Great to have them around as they are interested in their environment and what they can do to help and improve where they are staying. Thoroughly recommend them!

Ruby is a gem!!!!
Seriously she went out of her way to help with things that needed doing and fitted straight in. The kids loved her, she was great with everyone and could not have managed doing what we were doing at the time with out her ( organizing 1 Christmas fair at a school and a kids's play at another...)
Highly recommend her to anyone!

I spent almost two weeks with the family in May and loved it! The family are friendly and welcoming and the work is varied and interesting. Though located in a remote little village, there is plenty to do and keep busy with. The accommodation and food were great, and I would definitely return. Thanks Alisa and Richard for the great memories :)

Staying with the Adkinsons could not of been a better first workaway experience!
