Workaway Bewertungen und Feedback. - page 85

My experience with Mo and Kiki was absolutely amazing. We mainly house and pet sitted for them while staying with other workawayers on their property and it was absolutely beautiful. We had dinner together every night, were free to roam around their property with the dogs and cats, and only had to do two hours of work per day since we paid for our own food. It was a very nice way to end my trip after being in Europe for around 3 months since it was nothing but insanely peaceful. We also got to explore the town of Tortosa and meet Mo and Kiki's friends from the community. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip and highly recommend staying at their place. Hopefully we will be back someday :)

Gloria stayed at the farm for a few weeks in Autumn 2025. She was cheerful, polite, tidy, good with the horses....and a great cook! Highly recommended!

Giulio was a great addition to our team. Punctual, he works hard on solo activities and also as part of a team, he is sociable and friendly. He always did a great job and was very quick. He was always willing to help other volunteers and staff. We definitely recommend him and he is welcome at any time in our hostel. Safe travels

Meri from Brittany is one of a kind. He is really nice, kind, genuine, and hard-working. He was a great addition to our team and always did a good job at the hostel. He listened carefully to instructions and learned fast. He was always considerate with volunteers, staff, locals, and guests, and everyone around him. He brightens the place with his presence and sense of humour, and he is always up for fun games and activities. We wish to have more people like him. We certainly recommend him to other hosts in any situation, and he is always welcome at our hostel at any time. A well-presented lad and a great bagpiper player. Best of luck and save travels

There is always light at the end of the tunnel. While juggling between university and workaway, Estel has helped me with various tasks, including workshop, wall sanding, tile making. At the time I did not have energy to organise any other activities due to a busy work/life schedule. Estel also posed for my students for a life drawing class (of course... Wearing clothes) character wise Estel is a social person and always in a positive mood, she might be a bit of clumsy but not in a bad way 😁 it forms part of her pippi long stockings or Dora the Esploradora character! Thanks Estel for your help! It was a great pleasure hosting you and you are always welcome!

Hosting Emma was an absolute joy! She’s reliable, hardworking, and always ready to help with a smile. Her laughter brightened the hostel every day, and her singing voice is simply angelic. We’d happily host her again and highly recommend her to any future hosts!

We had an amazing experience hosting Gabriel as a volunteer. He was reliable, hardworking, and always ready to help with a smile. Gabriel tackled every task efficiently and with a positive attitude, and he was a fantastic team player who communicated openly and clearly. We especially appreciated his initiative, passion, and genuinely friendly nature—he brought such a great energy to our team and made our hostel feel even more welcoming. We would wholeheartedly recommend Gabriel to any future host and would be thrilled to have him stay with us again.

Bridget è fantastica.. Abbiamo vissuto un periodo bellissimo e siamo rimasti tutti felici di averla avuta con noi.. speriamo che torni presto 🧡

We had a wonderful experience hosting Aurélie as a volunteer. She was reliable, punctual, and always approached her work with a positive attitude. Aurélie completed all tasks efficiently and consistently kept both guest and staff areas clean and tidy. We truly appreciated her initiative and attention to detail. And as a special bonus, her cinnamon rolls are simply the best in the world! 😄 We would happily recommend Aurélie to future hosts and would be delighted to host her again.

I had the most fantastic time at Fionntáin! From November 25th to December 13th, I stayed in the off-grid mobile home. Although it was cold and sometimes challenging, I can say with certainty that the experience was extremely positive. From the very beginning, I felt at home there, and it was very hard for me to leave. I can describe Fionntáin in only one way: as a unique person with a beautiful vision, an honest heart and a good sense of humor. During my stay, I was very well taken care of. There was plenty of food, plenty of firewood, sufficient facilities and overall a respectful and caring approach in everything. The volunteers have their own mobile home and you have your own room. This enhanced the feeling of being at home, as it gives you the opportunity for privacy and time to yourself. The work itself was clear and not too demanding. There was plenty of room for rest. There was no stress or pressure. In addition, it was also educational. The surroundings themselves were stunning and Fionntáin’s forest is magical. The view is breathtaking, the people in the area were very friendly, and the small shop and pub, just a five-minute walk away, were very convenient. All in all, I can say that volunteering at Fionntáin is definitely highly recommended. You learn things about yourself, you learn to let go of “normal modern facilities” and you learn to enjoy the small things. Even in late autumn, it is well worth coming by (just make sure you wear enough warm clothes 😉).

We had a wonderful experience hosting Bruno as a volunteer. He was reliable, hardworking, and always willing to help wherever needed. Bruno completed every task efficiently and with a consistently positive attitude, and he got along exceptionally well with both guests and staff. We truly appreciated his flexibility, initiative, and strong work ethic. We would happily recommend Bruno to future hosts and would welcome him back anytime.

Superpositive feedback for Macella! She is such a kind, humble and polite person. Always grateful and smiling. She really respects both the space and the people around her. She is so amazing at taking pictures! And we took advantage of her talent! Her smile and cheerful personality make it so nice to spend time with and share moments together. She helped me a lot in the daily routine housechores completing everything I asked her to do very well, and her organizing skills are really good . She also spent lot of time helping me in my volountiring work (organise clothes, food and toys for families in need, load them in the car and bring everything to destination!). I truly enjoyed having her here and would highly recommend her to any other host. Thank you so much for everything!

En esta experiencia yo fui acompañada de mi amigo Hasan, llegamos en Noviembre y el sitio y los animales nos gustaron tanto que nos quedamos un mes. El trabajo no es duro y Luciana no te exige demasiado, remodelamos el jardín quitando plantas, limpiamos las playas de plásticos cuando vino la tormenta ( ahí nos dimos cuenta de lo inconsciente que es la sociedad con el consumismo de plásticos, desde cepillos de dientes hasta afeitadoras y millones de botellas de agua) fue triste pero fue un gran aprendizaje. Luciana es increíble como persona y no es una persona super sociable pero cuando teníamos conversaciones siempre eran super enriquecedoras, sabe muchísimo de muchísimas cosas; la conexión que tiene con la naturaleza y el mar me dio mucha esperanza en el mundo , está comprometida a hacer todo lo posible por ayudar al planeta. Trabajamos a cambio de un espacio en el jardín para poner nuestra tienda, había otra pero decidimos quedarnos con la nuestra, hacíamos cada día fuego para comer y a las 5 teníamos que estar en la tienda porque los mosquitos van a matar pero cuando entras en la dinámica lo sobrellevas. Ibamos una vez a la semana a comprar comida pero también venía Don Beto en su camion hasta la casa con fruta y verdura. El buceo es maravilloso allí, Luciana te pide que pagues el equipo y el barco y la experiencia si no has buceado nunca que no es mucho si vienes con ahorros. Siempre intentó que estuviéramos lo más cómodos posible y nos dejaba ser. El impacto que te llevas así como el conocimiento es sobre como ser más consciente de tus actos y tu consumo y estar en una playita en el caribe donde puedes coger los cocos con la mano obviamente acompañadisimos de los tres perritos y los dos gatitos que tienen todos sus personalidades y son geniales. Por desgracia fuimos con la idea de un agua cristalina y una playa para bañarse siempre pero la realidad era que el sargazo había visitado las costas y todo estuvo durante nuestra estancia color café, lo cual no era super apetecible para bañarse. Fue una experiencia dura en algunos sentidos (ducharse con agua fría, mosquitos, hacer un fuego todos los días..) pero inolvidablemente increíble. Me llevo a Yuca y a shiva en mi corazón para siempre.

Great Guy, would recommend!

Jamie is a very friendly young woman, curious about the culture she's visiting and genuinely interested in the people she's staying with. She is very independent, seeking out things she might enjoy, planning her days and arranging her travel. She kept her environment tidy and was very proactive in offering help around the house. She delighted my daughter with a gift of Harry Potter lego, and me with some delicious Taiwanese tea. My daughter and I were both touched by the lovely personalized thank you cards she left us at the end of her stay.

Nicola was a wonderful volunteer at our Coliving. From the very beginning, Nico worked in a very professional and reliable way, always being polite, respectful, and friendly with our guests. He was a great help in our daily operations and consistently went above and beyond what was asked of him, always offering extra support whenever it was needed. Nico integrated very quickly with our team, showing a great attitude, initiative, and strong teamwork skills. His positive energy and willingness to help made a real difference in our community. We truly appreciated having him with us and would be more than happy to welcome him back anytime. We highly recommend Nico to other hosts on Workaway — he would be a valuable addition to any project.

It was our first Workaway, and it totally blew our expectations out of the water. It felt like a second family with the other Workawayers and housemates. Bartolo's rooms are super modern, cozy, and really well-furnished. Lunch was cooked every day, and like 80-90% of the stuff came straight from their garden. We hung out together outside and in the community kitchen by a cozy fire most evenings. We drank beer and wine and had awesome chats about everything, from political philosophy to just plain fun. We really hope we can come back soon for another adventure and we 100% recommend Bartolo. Cheers, Lisa and Lorenzo

My experience here has been everything I could have hoped for. Here there are more than 400 dogs ready to welcome you and love you unconditionally. The work is intense but highly rewarding, with so many souls that warm your heart. The shifts are relaxed, though, and besides the daily tasks of cleaning and feeding the dogs, there is always time for cuddle sessions and walks. The place is beautiful, well-structured, and you immediately feel part of something noble and important. After my first month of volunteering, I collaborated with this foundation as a volunteers’ coordinator, having the opportunity to play an important role both for the dogs and for the other volunteers at the center. Over these months I have learned so much—not only about dogs but also about the realities of running a shelter, the challenges of managing a place with limited resources, and always prioritizing animal welfare. It was such an enlightening experience that I am now studying canine behaviour, and I hope that one day I will be able to do what this small foundation fights so hard to achieve every day: working on the front lines for the wellbeing of dogs and raising as much awareness as possible about stray animals and the importance of sterilization. I recommend this experience to everyone!

I’m so happy to have spent time there, you’ll for sure love it. I stayed in Fusa for a total of 3weeks, two weeks in the school with my friend Tim. We helped the teacher with their English classes, I was mostly helping preschool to 8th grade and I loved it. I had to go around the class, see who I could help and try to keep the subject about the class because they are suuuper curious. Which was really really cute. You’ll enter the class and they will run to give you a hug, be super attentive of all your stories and show you all the cool stuff they have. We cooked our breakfast and then we had lunch with the kids and for dinner we could have leftovers and the groceries to cook our own thing if we preferred ! After my friend left I stayed a week with Seb and his family in the finca. They are fantastic cook haha I really liked to have lunch all together and share stories, they’ll really make you feel like home. Seb was amazing and he make delicious coffee 😎 he will teach you a looot about the whole process ofc and will give you an amazing tour of the finca, explaining every step and everything there is. You’ll also learn about the history of the country, his finca, the town,… you can really talk about everything with him and have great exchange of knowledge. In the finca I helped him with the design of the packaging of his coffee brand and went to see how he roast the beans. He is really open to new ideas, listen and takes time to discuss about what he’d like. But I have to warn you, he might make you addicted to açaí, which out of Fusa, will be a really pricey addiction haha. Thanks Seb for everything 🙏

I had a really great time with Tom. He was very kind, welcoming, and always made sure everything was running smoothly. I really appreciated his help around the mobil-home it made everything much easier. He was friendly and easygoing, and it was nice to spend time chatting with him. Thank you, Tom, for your trust and for making my stay so comfortable. It was a really enjoyable part of my workaway experience!
