Workaway Bewertungen und Feedback. - page 61

Lawrence was an awesome volunteer on our farm. He was super helpful and always jumped in to get things done, no matter what the job was. He worked hard and made everything more fun. What I really loved was how calm and peaceful he is. He just has this relaxing vibe that makes busy farm days feel easier. Lawrence is a true adventurer who loves trying new things. Hosting him was a real pleasure. He’s always welcome back here anytime – we hope he comes again soon! I’d recommend him to any host if your looking for good energy to have around.

It is difficult to find the words to describe the wonderful two weeks we spent with Susanna, Giulio and Frida. We were their first workaway guests, and they welcomed us with open arms and unconditional kindness. Every day was different in terms of the tasks to be done on the farm, depending on everyone's energy, enthusiasm and the weather. At their home, we had space and time to recharge our batteries in the heart of the beautiful countryside. Giulio and Susanna enthusiastically showed us around their region. Susanna introduced us to vegan cuisine, and we hope that everyone who stays with them will have the chance to taste her divine dishes ! This experience would not have been as wonderful without Giulio's humour, childlike spirit and biscuits. We cannot thank them enough for all their love and kindness :)

We had a wonderful experience with this Workaway. From the very beginning, we were welcomed so warmly and immediately felt at home. Sue and Alan are authentic, kind, open-minded, funny and attentive to our needs. We shared so many laughs with this unique family. The tasks were varied and adapted to our abilities, we truly felt useful and appreciated. Sue is amazing, the more you get to know her, the more you discover how many talents she has. With Alan, laughter is guaranteed and you will never be bored. Once again, thank you so much, and we truly hope to see you again soon, we miss you already.

We stayed with this amazing family for a few weeks. During those days, our main job was collecting olives in order to make oil. Alwin and Janine were really welcoming, and it was a pleasure to spend time with them and with Liam and Luuk. The workawayers’ room, where we spent our evenings and nights, is really spacious and meets every need. Alwin and Janine are very communicative and calm people; we truly felt at home. Liam and Luuk are two very energetic kids, always ready to help and eager to learn about other cultures. In conclusion, we can absolutely say this was an amazing experience. Hope to see you again, guys! Our biggest regards, Raùl, Dino and Chiara

I have nothing but feelings of gratitude for the experience I had with Thierry and his project. Every detail of it is incredibly interesting, and it was an honor to help both in the honey factory and in the construction of the treehouse. Beyond the work, the moments shared around the table were truly special — enjoying delicious raclette, tartiflette, and “tortiflette” together made everything even more memorable. The farm itself is absolutely surreal in its beauty: every day felt like a new sky show over the mountains, bringing a deep sense of peace. I learned a lot from Thierry and from my fellow volunteers during this Workaway. Once again, I am deeply grateful for this experience. You have a wonderful heart, and your project is truly beautiful. I hope to see you again soon. A big hug, my friend, and I wish you all the very best ❤️

If I could rate it 10/10 stars, this would be it! Unforgettable memories with this lovely German (also Irish 😍) family! Witnessing Princess Frank "Maus's" (a loving way of saying it) smile every day was a radiant light! The whole family is wonderful, friendly, and genuine! I was able to experience the day-to-day life of German culture with enthusiasm and originality! I also met Anne and Frederik, who are lovely and friendly people! Regarding the volunteer work, I sterilized Frank Maus's baby bottles, cooked dinner, vacuumed the house, helped with grocery shopping, and also organized some stuffs in the family's new home. It's important to note that the family respected the daily volunteer hours, thus allowing me to dedicate myself to my online work as an international consultant in industrial property (patents & trademarks). Furthermore, they encouraged me to visit the amazing Christmas markets in Germany. Hannah, Kevin, and Frank Maus: you all brought me so much happiness! Gratitude at all!

I had a very nice experience at the place. The work can be demanding at times, but if you don't mind getting dirty and like animals, it's really nice. I especially enjoyed being able to work with a lot of different kinds of animals. I learned a lot, felt like I was contributing to something important and met some wonderful people. As is typical, you meet wonderful people here, as well as others who are ... I would recommend this place to anyone who loves animals and wants a purposeful Workaway experience.

Gabriele was a wonderful volunteer to have at the farm. He was always willing to help and never hesitated to take on any task, whether big or small. He worked across different teams—resident animals, products, and the hospital—and did everything with care. What really stood out was that Gabriele often helped even beyond volunteering hours, simply because he wanted to contribute more. He got along well with the animals, staff, and other guests, followed all the rules, and maintained a very respectful attitude throughout his stay. We never had any issues with him and would be happy to welcome him back anytime. :)

My experience at the finca has been fantastic! I stayed there for 5 weeks and carried out a large variety of tasks, such as feeding the animals (horses, rodents, birds, etc.), grooming the horses and ensuring that the finca remains clean. I am very grateful to Lucía and her family for welcoming me with open arms into their world. Moreover, I would highly encourage any future Workawayers to explore the beautiful city of Granada and its surroundings. I had a great time discovering the rich history and traditions of Andalucía and hope to come back soon!

Mina is 28 years old and from the United States. She is a high school teacher in the U.S. This time, she took about two months off. She stayed at my home and helped at my English school. She is calm and kind. She always cared about my family and my students. What I liked most about her was this. She did not think only about herself. She listened carefully to my ideas and opinions. She understands “give and take” very well. Of all the foreign teachers I have hosted, she was the easiest person to live and work with. She also helped a lot in class. When students made mistakes, she typed the correct sentences on the computer. For beginner students, it is hard to learn English by listening only. Seeing their mistakes and the correct English on the screen was very helpful. Her support helped the students. It also helped me a lot. She never thought support was something natural. When she received help, she always wanted to give something back. I felt she understood important Japanese values. Her kindness showed in her actions. She plans to visit Fukuoka again in 2026 or 2027. I hope she will stay with us again and help our students. Mina, thank you very much for these two months. I am really looking forward to seeing you again. Let’s enjoy the last week together.

We really enjoyed having them as volunteers on the farm. They were always enthusiastic and very productive with every task. No matter what job we gave them, they put in their best effort and always finished it well. They also loved spending time with the kids, and it was clear that the children loved them too. They knew how to connect with the kids in a natural and caring way, which made all the activities more fun. Another thing we really appreciated is that they had many great ideas to help connect the volunteers and create a warm, friendly atmosphere. Their suggestions helped everyone enjoy their time on the farm more and have meaningful experiences together. They brought good energy, kindness, and creativity to the team. We are very thankful for everything they did, and we would be happy to welcome them back anytime.

Our time with Nigel and Sue was wonderful and our first Workaway experience. We fell in love with Gisborne! Our accommodation in the little cabin was very cozy, and Nigel and Sue made sure we always felt comfortable. We had many lovely conversations, breakfasts together, and even got to meet their friends at a pizza night. Our work was enjoyable and very much appreciated. We hope to see you again sometime; thank you so much for letting us stay with you!🥰

Thank you to Eva, Mike and Pinot (dog) for their warm welcome and kindness. This second Workaway experience has motivated me to continue in this direction, sharing time with locals, engaging in enriching discussions and discovering New Zealand culture. I enjoyed Eva and Mike's lifestyle, their patience and kindness, which contributed to the success of this adventure. I feel privileged to have been able to enjoy the delicious meals cooked by Mike and Eva, their charming home and the surprising and soothing natural surroundings. I highly recommend these hosts, you will enjoy this Workaway. Good luck with your projects, enjoy life, big hugs ☺️

We learned so much from you in great stories and fun conversations. Much gratitude for sharing with us your artistic skills and attention to details as you took the task of restoring the metal tables and chairs to its prime state, from beginning to finish, with ease. I truly appreciated your gentle way, your kindness towards Kai in his old age and your independence getting around. Even though you were here for a short period of time, we appreciated your gentle soul and genuine joy. I truly hope that you will explore your talents and share them with many in your journey. You are welcome to come back any time!!

We spent two wonderful weeks with Ivo, Hannah, and their adorable Kleo. Time flew by, and it truly felt like it wasn’t long enough. They are such a lovely family. We learned a lot from each other and worked together on chores, which helped us greatly. We are truly grateful for their kindness and support, and we wish u a smooth and joyful journey ahead.

I spent three and half weeks working on Steve and Parissa's property. They are extremely kind, understanding and flexible. The work is very varied, as both the land and the house are large. You will learn many different things, which is extremely interesting. Not to mention your neighbors (Jamie and Oliver, two goats) and six chickens that need to be taken care of. You will live in a special house for workawayer (between 2 and 8 people), which is a great way to meet and interact with other travelers. This was my first workaway experience and I am very grateful to have ended up here for my first time. I won't hesitate to go back if the opportunity arises. I highly recommend it!

Es un oasis hecho con mucha dedicación y amor por la tierra. Trabajar con pepe y juliana fue muy agradable y queremos darles las gracias por su amabilidad y hospitalidad. recomendado este voluntariado!!

Everything I wanted to say has of course been raved about already:) Here's what stood out to me personally: Marco as a host understands his role really well. He is a very nurturing and patient presence, always ready to give advice, show us the relevant skill and drop tips for weekend trips. I was initially a bit skeptical of his god-like esteem on the mountain but it turned out to be absoloutely well-founded. He is an incredibly knowledgeable guy (don't forget to ask him about his previous careers!) who gives relentlessly and, in return, asks only for a manageable labour contribution towards his community hub vision for the breathtaking Monte Cima. Every volunteer here struck gold and knows it. Onwards: I loved being able to camp outside in the tents whenever I felt like it. The other volunteers are reliably easy to get along with (I was in 2 groups) Therapeutic working, Swiss cheeses, good weather and good vibes, overall this was such a powerful and resetting experience for me and if these things sound up your street, I would highly, highly recommend.

I had such a wonderful time with Sharon, Vic and the family! I instantly felt right at home with such a friendly family. I was astounded at how amazing the accommodation was (after spending a lot of time at hostels!!), I left feeling rested and refreshed having such a private space with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I really enjoyed sitting down for meals with the whole family, and enjoyed some delicious food and plenty of treats! Sharon gave clear instructions on what she needed help with around the house and garden, with simple tasks that were fun to crack on with in my own time. She made sure that I had plenty of time to explore the area, and had tons of great recommendations. I went out for a long cycle around the vineyards and plenty of lovely walks nearby. I really enjoyed my time in Blenheim, and it really was a pleasure to meet this lovely family - thanks again!

We stayed for a week. We were forced to leave due major force circumstances. Bummer! Marija and Thibaut are lovely guys who put all their effort in the little corner of paradise they built. Work was fine, we've helped housekeeping, cleaning the beach, give a hand in the kitchen and at the bar, create a bond with customers. Accomodation was a two bedroom two bathroom traditional Cambodian house in a small village. We've had the chance to live like and with locals and this was absolutely amazing. Recommended!
