Workaway Bewertungen und Feedback. - page 107

Dear Julia, Chris, Leonas, and Levi, It was such a great chance for us to be their very first workawayers. We spent one week together with their lovely family. Aykut helped Chris with the garden work — together they built a children’s playground, worked on the garden gate, and fixed the fence. I also helped in the garden, spent some time with their sweet boys, and gave a hand with a few house tasks. They live in a beautiful neighborhood, and their home is wonderful. They provided us with a comfortable place to stay as a family — the apartment was just downstairs from their home and had everything we needed. When we first arrived, they kindly picked us up from the train station, and when we left, they also dropped us off — such a thoughtful gesture. Both Julia and Chris have a background in traveling, so we had lots of inspiring conversations about journeys and experiences. We also talked about German culture and food, which was really nice. Julia also took us to a park with big inflatable toys where the children had so much fun, and we really enjoyed it. Our daughters really enjoyed spending time with Leonas and Levi. Leonas and Levi are such cutie pies, we already miss them! The food was delicious — Julia is such a great cook! Thank you so much for opening your home to us. We hope to see you again in the future.

Hasan is a super fun guy, always happy and spreading positive vibes. We had a blast together for nearly three months. Even though Hasan claims to be the all-time top-scoring volunteer, I have to point out that most of his "goals" came from his shoe flying off and hitting the net! :D Jokes aside, Hasan was an awesome volunteer. I’m sure we’ll meet again soon. Best wishes, Burak.

Simon is a great guy, strong and full of energy. He works hard, cares a lot, and gets along super well with other volunteers. I really wish he could stay longer. Hope we meet again soon! Best, Burak.

I enjoyed spending two weeks with Ami and her son Mihai, in the beautiful region of Banatul Montan. From the first moment, Ami proved to be a very welcoming and open host. I appreciated her positive attitude and energy, the fact that she is an easy-going person, as well as her sense of humor. Also, we had some deep and interesting conversations together, in which time seemed to be compressed. Mihai is a well-educated, obedient and sociable little boy and it is a pleasure to see him playing freely, in the natural environment, like the one in Bocșa. I am glad that I had this positive experience and I am confident that even though I live at the other end of the country, we will meet again.

We are very happy to have joined this camp as a family. In August 2025, we took part in the last summer camp in Liddes. I volunteered as an English teacher, my husband helped in the kitchen, and our daughters enjoyed the camp to the fullest. Besides these roles, we also organized some workshops and led group games during the evening activities. We were the first family to volunteer together in this camp. Usually, the camp is run with the experience of volunteers who have been joining these courses for many years. It was a wonderful opportunity to meet amazing people. Liddes is a small Swiss village, very peaceful and quiet. Apart from your main duties, if there is space, you can also join other camp activities. There is the chance to work with volunteers from all around the world, and everyone does their work with joy in a harmonious environment. The food was delicious, and the accommodation was excellent. Thank you very much for accepting us as a family. We truly hope to have the chance to work with you again in the future.

We spent a week volunteering with Siri and absolutely fell in love with everything! The children were wonderful – kind, curious, and such a joy to teach. They happily joined in with the lessons and games, and their warm energy made the whole experience so special. Siri herself was an incredible host, welcoming us wholeheartedly and making sure we always felt at home. Her kindness and positive spirit created such a comfortable atmosphere that it was impossible not to feel at ease. Beyond the volunteering, we also loved exploring the area with her. Siri took us out to local restaurants, guided us on tours of the city, temples, and even the mall, and she was always there to help with day-to-day things – even arranging a haircut at a local barber! It was a truly wonderful experience, and we are deeply grateful to Siri for opening her home and heart to us. Thank you for making our stay so meaningful and memorable!

Jelle is fantastic... works far above average, always doing something, and a nice smart guy. His partner Luna is also great! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

I was at Nouri's house for less than a week, unfortunately because I texted him at the last minute, but he welcomed me with a cheerful face. Nouri's house was a real peace for me after a long trip and he was amazing, kind and generous. It was very enjoyable to be able to rest and start working again whenever I wanted during the day and it made me feel more like I was there to help than to work. he sent me with his friend to go and explore the city. he is very kind. I really enjoyed being there and felt at home. He is a professional chef and I tried new dishes there in a very cozy place. Nouri is a knowledgeable person and after I left he followed up on my trip and tried to help me everywhere. I hope to see you again this time so that I can be more helpful to you.

Luciano is a very pleasant person with a youthful spirit.Very good worker and nice company.

What an incredible experience! Yosun is very knowledgeable and so dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of the animals she rescues, and her philosophy of deep ecology and our integration with nature is entirely aligned with my own. Her animals -- 9 horses / 7 donkeys plus 4 sheep,6 chickens, 9 cats, and 3 dogs (yes, her heart is that big) -- are each one remarkable in his/her own way, and all deserving of great love. The sanctuary is still under development (she relocated there just 1 year ago) and staying there is not for the faint-hearted; you must be willing to endure a bit of hardship for the sake of these wonderful creatures and their wellbeing. I stayed a week with Yosun and her animal companions, and I'm already looking forward to my return next year. Thank you, Yosun, for your generosity and kind spirit, the knowledge and shared conversation, and for this great work that you do!

Maddy is delightfully laid back and accommodating. She tackled all jobs cheerfully, and has a calming way the animals, we all miss her.

Kyrre is such a knowledgeable, kindness and respectful person. He replied all the questions before I arrived and shared Norwegian lifestyle since from he picked me up from airport. His cook is amazing (Norwegian food) and I felt like a guest more than a worker. He told me what he needed help and I could pick some it fit with me. Therefore work can be difficult from different workers and I enjoyed mine. My room with sea and mountains views. I don't have to say more good things about landscape here.( I guess everyone knows how awesome) I sadly to leave but already planning back in summer. You are more than lucky if you have chance to be here.

Thank you so, so much! Kärri !!How you are such an amazing woman – I never met someone so open-minded and full of kindness. I felt a very deep connection with you, with the grandchildren, and with all the wonderful people around you. I really learned so much from the Swiss traditional lifestyle, and these memories will always stay with me. I will never forget the time we spent together – cooking, playing and praying with the children, and enjoying the beautiful mountains. You also gave me so much freedom to explore Switzerland, and I am truly grateful for that. Your family and friends are so kind and interesting, and I loved every single moment with all of you. I enjoyed working side by side with you and sharing so many talks together. This awsome experience is super my motivation to study both German language and medicine. I really, really miss your family and your lovely home, and I hope from my heart that we will meet again someday! With love and gratitude, Yuri 🌸

Milli spent a whole month at the garden house. Since Milli worked independent most of the time, a miracle happened. After this summer a complete sturdy fence was set up, the bottom of the outdoor fireplace is new and the best, solarpanels are installed. More than I expected. Milli took care of the house while I had (too) many appointments with doctors and physiotherapy. Always helpful, friendly and enjoying the time, guiding me at the hardware store to get the right things it was a pleasure to have this professional young powerful person around. Thank you so much and come back whenever you want. Much recommended workawayer. 👍🏻👍🏻

I have been lucky to host thealie & Lyne on there first workaway. We had fun communicating 🌞 but thats half the learning experience with workaway They struggle a bit with English but with paisants from both sides we had success. Keep it up girls you will be better by the end of your stay. They are very trustworthy, polite and will do work . I had then cleaning house, windows, my car big job what a difference . We did gardening, mulching, weeding, mowing using a mower. they will give just about anything a go , I fully recommend these ladies . I wish you all the best for your future adventures

We really loved our experience here. It was our first stop in Colombia, and it couldn't have started any better. Even though we only spent 10 days here, we immediately felt at home. Nancy and Samuel are fantastic people; even though we had little time to get to know each other, we immediately got along well with all the staff and other volunteers. We only met wonderful people. Thank you for everything.

Jacqueline es fantástica, ejemplo de mujer empoderada en un contexto rural más que auténtico Sola levantó y lleva su pequeño proyecto de comida tradicional Recetas típicas muy concurrida por la gente de la zona, que requieren horas de preparación de ingredientes y cocción en olla de barro sobre leña, (no se necesita experiencia previa, solo muchas ganas de picar verduras 😂). Para los voluntarios hizo una cabañita con pajas, cortina y techito de lamina, una cama grande y un armario, en el mismo jardín (los servicios son en común, lo de la familia). Trabajamos 6 días enteros a lo largo de 9 días, compartimos historias de viaje y de familia, cultura autentica y también un lindo ceremonial con taita local. Hasta pronto Jacqueline Te deseamos lo mejor del mundo

What a great experience. Martina and her son, Anthony, are impossible to dislike. They are charming and warm and funny. I did a variety of manageable tasks in the garden and helped out a little around the house. You are well fed and the house itself is spacious and comfortable. As you will see, the garden is luscious and well-maintained. Anthony taught me about gardening and permaculture, yoga, herbalism, Nicaraguan culture and cuisine. It's also a good opportunity to practice your Spanish. I would certainly recommend helping out if you can!

Two weeks with Olga and Slavik. They are some of the most amazing people I have ever met. You feel instantly welcomed, even just from their messages. Communication was great, nothing was ever a problem. I only wish I could have stayed longer. All the best to Ryskulov!

Georgina stay with us and we were all the luckier for it. She was wonderful to have around, both in her work and energy. Would have her back in a heart beat. Hope you're enjoying your time in New Zealand! -Jack
