Workaway Bewertungen und Feedback. - page 13

I had a truly wonderful stay with this family and cannot recommend them enough. From the moment I arrived, they were incredibly loving and welcoming, making me feel like a part of the home right away. The daily routine was very manageable and easy to get into. The main responsibilities are driving the girls to and from school and spending time chatting with them over dinner, which was always a pleasure. They are incredibly polite, friendly, and great company. And of course, I can’t forget Arwen! She is a sweetheart of a dog and her high energy always brought a smile to my face. My experience here was fantastic, and I already have plans to return for a longer stay in the future. If you have the chance to volunteer with this family, do not hesitate!

Paula and Gonzalo were great to have stay and help us in the house and garden. They did a great job in whatever they did. They stayed some days longer to feed and dogs cats and chickens so we could go to a memorial for death of my brother. Much appreciated We wish them well and always welcome back.

I loved staying at this farm in Hungary. A beautiful house, lovely family, genuinely welcoming vibes and a very interesting language. You can ride forever in stunning countryside. I started the young horse, Neo, a huge sport horse/draft cross while I was there. I have very fond memories of this experience.

Juan et Merel nous ont très vite accueilli dans leur famille. Nous avons pu partager des moments agréables avec eux et leurs enfants comme aller à la piscine, aller manger dans la ville la plus proche ou encore assister à une fête locale. Nous avons apprécié le fait d’avoir un cabanon indépendant. Rustique mais pratique avec une cuisine bien équipée et en pleine nature. Nous avons eu la chance de profiter de leur magnifique réserve naturelle, notamment de la rivière et la splendide cascade, mais aussi d’observer les nombreux oiseaux et des orages incroyables ! Notre travail fut de planter du cacao avec les fermiers en charge de la plantation. Travail assez physique mais le process sur le cacao était intéressant. Merci à eu pour leur accueil et cette expérience marquante. — Juan and Merel welcomed us into their family very quickly. We were able to share some lovely moments with them and their children, such as going to the swimming pool, eating in the nearest town, and attending a local feria. We appreciated having our own separate cabin. Rustic but practical, with a well-equipped kitchen, and surrounded by nature. We were lucky enough to enjoy their magnificent nature reserve, especially the river and the splendid waterfall, as well as observing the many birds and witnessing incredible thunderstorms! Our work involved planting cacao with the farmers in charge of the plantation. It was quite physical work, but the cacao process was interesting. Thank you to them for their hospitality and this memorable experience.

Seppe stayed with us for about 10 days and was a legend with the weed eater! Track maintenance and tree release were the main jobs and he was excellent. We went to the beach a couple of times and he was easy company. Highly recommended!

Maria Sofia and Daian were great Workawayers! They stayed for about 10 days to house-sit and look after our Yorkshire Terrier, Jimmy. The house was in perfect shape when we returned, no issues at all and Jimmy absolutely loved them. Trustworthy, responsible, and easy to communicate with.

Courtney stayed with us for about 10 days and was excellent company and very social with other guests. No job was too hard, there was a combination of track clearing and tree maintenance work, including getting rid of some invasive weeds. Courtney is super-friendly and welcome back anytime!

this is the third time we have hosted Douglas and it is always a real pleasure. we spent almost a month with him. he is very easy to get along with. we talked a lot and laughed a lot. he is welcome for another stay with us.

It was a pleasure to host and be with Anne. Dedicated help with various smaller tasks she supported me with, we had good and interesting conversations, fun and.... Sje introduced us into fermentation and brought a kombucha Scoobie that I'm fostering, it's giving amazing kombucha. I would have her any time again. Thank you Many blessings along you way

August was a wonderful workawayer to have around. Calm energy, easy-going, and great company at the dinner table. He helped with all kinds of jobs around the house and garden — flexible, no fuss, just got on with it. Not every task was easy (hanging a huge tarp in the forest was quite the challenge!), but he stuck with it and the result was great. August is someone who likes to see things through. He also painted beautiful name signs with great dedication — they really elevate the look of our place. After work he kept to himself, often sketching or writing in his journal. He explored independently on his days off, and we also had a fun trip together to Tirana. And after a full day of work, he didn't hesitate to help our neighbours haul a massive pile of hay bales — that says a lot about his character. Exactly the kind of workawayer who makes life easier rather than busier. Highly recommended to other hosts!

What a wonderful stay. The place is beautiful, with a many of wild flowers in the field and natural built bouses (I stayed in the Dome). It was relaxing experience to be back to basic and live closer to nature. I stayed a little more than a week. During my time there was another volunteer, whocj made working together enjoyable. We helped with mulching and some natural ‘construction’. It was amazing to learn to make a clay mixture and a clay wall. The food was good- lots of fruit and healthy options (the buckwheat pizza was a welcome supprise) – and there was flexibility to make your food. A small lake nearby was perfect for frequent swim and one day we went to the beach in Milfontes.. It was fun to share some fermentation recipe. Beyond the nice activities and the beautiful place, I especially enjoyed the converstations with Sophie, Angelina (the other volunteer), Besi and Hano. We had meaningful talks about life and the world. I will bring some lessons with me home, especially their vision of giving back to nature and life with its rhythm. I wish you all the best and who knows we meet in the future

Mary and Leo are a joy to have around. Both are very committed to tasks given to them and take great pride in their work. They are very caring and kind people and make every effort to fit in and help where they can, I only have good things to say and highly recommend them.

We spent 2 perfect weeks with Michele and his young-spirited mum Nicla. From the first moment we felt very welcome. Staying at La Tiny House we had our own privacy but were close to the main house if we needed anything. We enjoyed working in the garden and around the house, we could even come up with our own suggestions for projects :) Despite the untypically rainy weather in May we managed to visit many interesting places, incl. mountains, beaches, ancient cities and make the most of our time. Martin as a chef particularly appreciated the cultural exchange focused on cuisine and learned some secret tips from Michele and his mum for the local dishes. I tried my best to use my A2 level Italian, thanks for your patience! Our dog Spajky was also welcome, although he would often test the agility of the local cats :) Michele and his mum engaged us in local activities like visiting the market, the local party or the best ice cream place and provided many local tips where to go and what to visit. We were lucky to experience the atmosphere of the 2026 Giro d'Italia as well :) Don't be discouraged by the narrow street leading to the house. The place has a lovely vibe and excellent view. Grazie per tutti i momenti. Jana e Martin.

La presencia de Anette en nuestra casa ha sido sumamente agradable. Se adapto perfectamente a las tareas encomendadas, siendo además muy independiente. Recorrió la isla en los días libres y se puede decir que como voluntaria es perfecta. Además disfrutó con nuestras comidas.

I had a great fall and winter with Fabia and Tommi. We were living in co-habitat and it added so much to my daily life. I loved having them around and we also gave each other good privacy. They were super helpful to have around the business and took great care of my big dogs. This is a great young couple! I was also able to leave the operation in their hands and travel and work. They took care of customer side adminstration, customer communication, cleaning of rental units, problem solving etc. Fabia and Tommi became my friends and we also had many nice parties and listen to a lot of good music together. Lovely people. Tommi and Fabia are welcome back any time, to work or as friends! Solid people. Love you!

Cliff was an amazing host. I was Helping with hauling branches. Feeding chickens harvesting veggies. Making salads.playing with dogs! I felt part of the family. Eating meals was always so fun to chat and share life stories . A beautiful experience!!

It has been a real delight having this lovely mother-and-daughter duo at home with us. Simone has a really nice energy about her, she's super easy-going and flexible but at the same time really efficient when asked to get things done. She’s really able to manage her time easily between being present for her gorgeous daughter and accomplishing whatever is asked of her around the house and garden. I totally trust her to be with my daughter, who is older now and doesn’t need much but I can see she has a way with smaller children and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave a smaller child with her. Simone is a very trustworthy person with whom you can speak about anything and she will tell you honestly if she can manage any task you may request of her. She’s also very quiet around the house and can adapt well to changing plans with a calm attitude always. It’s been a really easy co-living situation. Her daughter is so cute as well - I could not communicate much with her due to language barriers but we warmed to each other a lot. She’s able to play quietly by herself for quite long periods. I would highly recommend them as workaways!

Lucas & Talea are two wonderful people who we got to know well during their stay at our place. They have a hart of gold and we really enjoyed to have them amongst us for a couple of weeks. From the start it already felt very natural and we had lot of good moments, wines and conversations together. And we had the most delicious pizza's during the pizza night they organised for us. Also, they we're super cool with our young daughter, which we really loved to see! They helped us with lots of things, like making a new balcony fence, a dinner table and improving the swim spot. We would describe both as kind, considerate people that are happy to help where needed. And also bring a long some nice woodworking skills! You should check out their van ;) We wish them an amazing journey and hope to see them again some day!

We were so lucky to find Alex at a time when we needed urgent help to look after our two elderly dogs and cat so we could go to Canada for a funeral. He was the perfect match, caring, calm and very considerate. We were reassured to have a mature person here with so much experience of his own pets as well as looking after others. This was particularly important because our lovely dog Barney was not well and sadly died whilst we were away. Alex handled the situation with sensitivity and we will always be grateful to him. We were very happy that Alex wanted to stay on for a few weeks after to help us out and he enjoyed the English way of life. We will always be grateful for your hard work Alex and hope to see you again.
