Workaway Bewertungen und Feedback. - page 118

Anna stayed with us for two weeks in 2025. She is independent, calm and quiet. She helped with a variety of tasks: cleaning, gardening, painting, making apple jam and supporting small projects around the houses. She works cheerfully and reliably, and we could always trust her to handle her tasks promptly. Communication was always easy, even though she didn’t speak much Spanish, and we hope she picked up a little while she was here. She got along very well with other volunteers and they made a great team. We wish her all the best on her journey and would be happy to welcome her again.

Mehdi war eine Woche bei uns in Goldschau. Er ist ein ruhiger, offenherziger und angenehmer Mensch, den man gerne um sich hat. Im Zusammenleben war er immer sehr höflich, unkompliziert und hat sich gut an unseren Alltag hier angepasst. Er hat uns fleißig bei unseren Projekten unterstützt. Mehdi ist sehr positiv und lebensfroh und hat viele spannende Pläne und Ziele. Wir wünschen ihm das Allerbeste und er ist jederzeit in Goldschau Willkommen!

Luis was a delight to host . He has a very good work ethic and is skilled in many areas. He was always ready to help with whatever we were doing. Although his English wasn't great it was not a problem as he always tried hard and soon understood. He also has a good sense of humour and so he was fun to have around. I highly recommend him to other hosts

It’s my first time in Germany, and I’ve lived with this lovely family as a workawayer for a month and a half. Tobi and Lisa are super nice and did their best to make me feel engaged and included! They generously shared typical German food and traditions, taught me English and German, invited me to Christian events, and even asked me to celebrate the upcoming Christmas with them!They also helped me with everything in my daily life here. The four kids are super lovely, and I had a fantastic time with them. I am deeply grateful for everything they have done for me and for the genuine, beautiful connection and friendship we’ve built.I would be very happy to return if things allow! Wishing Tobi, Lisa, and their family a life filled with continued love and happiness!

Maya was brilliant to have around! She had great energy, a can-do attitude and she cooked us delicious meals! She was great with my baby and I really appreciated her using her art skills to do a few projects that I hadnt found time for ☺️ She’s really smart, too

My time with Chris was short but very enjoyable. His foods are not just healthy and also tasty 😋. Me and Clara help him in two places. So we could campaign in Megalong Valley and saw a huge amount of Kangaroos. The work is dependent on your skill. I am good in organizing but not building. Therefore Clara help more in building and I help in organizing. His home in Katoomba is really close to three sisters and a lot of hiking trails. You won't get bored here if you like nature.

Jessica was very quick reply to message and set up video call time.(You don't have to wait long time 😉) She is very much organized person and won't waste your time. The place is very close to train station and Jessica can give a lot local information and cultural support too. She is the first female I knew who really good and know about DIY. I learned a lot from her. We have quite a few conversations and she is knowledgeable, well traveled person. Thank you for having me and teaching me 😊

I want to thank Putra and Maya for all their hospitality and kindness while I was staying with them. Putra is an amazing leader in his community and had lots of plans to improve the lives of the people there and he cares deeply about the rainforest and the urang-utan. I helped with an English lesson for the local children who were adorable and very respectful. Also, I helped plant some durian seeds that will grow into saplings to be planed to the benefit of the urang-utan so they are not tempted to come into contact with humans. The tasks were well explained and I was assisted by Putra all along. I was generously housed in a private hut with a private bathroom and also really enjoyed the river being so close. Terima kasih, Putra & everyone there!

I stayed here for a total of five weeks. Originally, I planned to stay for only eight days, but I truly fell in love with this place. So after about a month, I returned and stayed for an additional four weeks. My role here was to help the host create the content he wanted. I taught him how to use a laptop and how to edit videos, and I also helped him choose a suitable microphone and a new phone for content creation. Beyond that, my work included assisting him whenever he had difficulties using his laptop and digital tools. I worked about two hours a day, which meant that after work, I had plenty of time to cook whatever I wanted. I especially enjoyed cooking Korean food and sharing it with my host. Seeing him enjoy my food so much made cooking even more joyful for me, and through this experience, I truly felt that my cooking skills improved a lot. I had been traveling around the world for about five months, and I really needed rest. This host’s home was a perfect place for me. I was able to rest deeply in my private room, take walks in nature, write in my journal, and cook my own meals. All of this gave me an incredible amount of inspiration. I was also deeply inspired by conversations with my host and his perspective on life. Even at the age of 80, he continues to create his own content, learn new things, and share his positive mindset with the world. Watching this motivated and inspired me greatly. If you come here as a guest, you will meet a joyful artist who wears three cute balloons on his hat and brings smiles to people and children wherever he goes.

Highly recommended experience. We spent three weeks in Atong Baol, and the days flew by. It was our first Workaway experience and I think it will be hard to beat. We helped with Julia and Jackie’s project, learning how to make raised beds, plant fruit trees using human compost, transplant plants, make vermicompost, and many other things. We also helped with the construction of some elements and with general maintenance of the place. The work is manageable, although it’s advisable to start early in the morning to avoid the heat (they have no problem with you starting earlier). At all times we felt very comfortable, and they both made an effort to teach us things and spend time with us, for example showing us how to make tofu and soy milk. We truly left very happy to have met them and to have spent time there. It is admirable to see their passion for nature, animals, and a sustainable and conscious lifestyle. Thank you very much for the opportunity and for your patience with our English. Our best wishes for the new project. A big hug, Juan and Lucía

We loved having Armando and Martina to stay with us. They are respectful, polite, friendly, trustworthy and easy to get along with. They helped us an enormous amount around the property - doing gardening, cleaning, babysitting, yard work and also some cooking. They were a delight with our small children and also our dogs. They left everything beautifully clean and tidy. We had lovely chats with them and their English is very good. They were eager to learn about permaculture, and to gain some skills in handy work and building. We really loved having them to stay and we would highly recommend this couple. We will miss you guys!

Jelle and Luna stayed with us for 2 weeks helping out in the garden, and the experience was a very positive one. They are very energetic workers, and worked beyond what was required of them on some days. They cooked some really great meals which really suited the kinds of food our family eats, and made our last evening fun with a special meal and family game. They left their room clean and tidy, and were generally thoughtful guests to have. Communication was really good, they aren't afraid to ask questions to be sure to get the work right. We really appreciate the hard work they put into our garden and wish them all the best on their future travels!

Can't recommend this lovely lady enough ... A beautiful clear smile greeted us , carrying a positive energy to be around and genuine curiosity about the world / culture around her. We were simply blown away with her work ethic and energy ... just try and stop her ;) - she went far beyond what we had hoped for as our 1st workaway experience. All with a smile and whilst oozing gratitude for her time with us , simply infectious happiness. Also very impressed with her respect in sharing spaces , allowing the natural rhythm of the family whilst fitting in unobtrusively - our week whilst she was here was very much enriched on many levels. We loved hosting Alicia here and would have her back in heartbeat !

We've spent 12 days at Resort in Khao Sok National Park. This is definitely the best WorkAway we've experienced so far after having used the platform for 2 years in Australia and made so many connections and new friends. Bodhi offered us the experience of working on the new resort by creating new photos and videos for the website and social media. The job was absolutely amazing because we've also shared the volunteering with other travellers from all around Europe sharing ideas and skills. You also have the chance to have real contact with Thai people, especially with local guides during each activity. P Nong has been so far the best encounter in Khao Sok and she's fluent in English with a big background as guide and as a person - she's the key to communicate with locals. Marius have been with us the whole time guiding us through every activities and content that need to be created and scheduled. The accommodation is amazing and he was always taking care of our needs. Marius has been living in Thailand for over 8 years now and he shared with us his passion for Thailand and Thai people and culture showing us hidden gems and stories. Thank you for having us in this amazing place: you're a great team and we hope to be back one day to see how the resort and the team has grown and flourish. :)

콜롬비아에서 머무는 동안 너무 행복했고 즐거운 경험을 할 수 있었어요. 아이들에게 한국에 대해 알려줄 수 있는 경험은 너무 값지고 소중했습니다. 다음에 또 올게요!

Sam is a good man and a good helper. He was with us for 3 weeks and did a lot of work that we will remember with gratitude. He installed a fence in the chicken area, dug and filled the paths in the garden with stones, prepared holes for planting sorrel and did a lot of small but important work. And also helped with the construction. We recommend him as a diligent helper. Good luck to you Sam. Come visit us again.

We had great time while staying at Mark's and Eliza's Place! Super nice family with cute children and there are very nice beaches around. We would definitely recommend it to other Workawayer's. 🤩🌺

La présence de Marie pendant un mois a été un plaisir Nous avons beaucoup partagé et elle a bien aidé sur le terrain dans diférentes tâches. C'est une personne très responsable, qui mène à bien ce qu'elle commence en respectant, les lieux, les personnes, et les animaux qui sont sur place Elle se connecte facilement avec les personnes et est positive et gaie. Merci pour ton aide Marie et bonne continuation de découverte de l'Amérique Latine

This workaway was a really interesting experience. Tree is a brilliant character - very kind, warm and eccentric! He lives a very unconventional life here in the Philippines and has lots of great stories and perspectives to share. This place feels very special. Poro island is rural and untouched, which is super cool to experience. The local community is extremely friendly and keen to interact with you and the waterfalls, caves and mangrove forests are beautiful. You will be staying in and renovating eco-domes that have been abandoned for a few years. They have a lot of potential, but they still have a long way to go so don't expect luxury from your stay. If you're looking for a rugged and off-grid experience in the Philippines then I would definitely recommend!

An excellent experience with this Australian family. I stayed with them from September to December 2025, and I felt very quickly integrated into family life and daily routines, which made the stay especially enjoyable and enriching. Even though I arrived outside the macadamia nut sorting season, I still had the opportunity to experience this work for around two weeks, along with other varied tasks. The organisation is clear, the atmosphere relaxed, and the setting truly pleasant. I was included in all outings and shared moments, which created a real sense of immersion and many great exchanges. Conversations with Kay and Nic are always interesting, kind and motivating, and you quickly feel comfortable around them. This experience was extremely positive for improving my English, both in terms of language skills and self-confidence. Living in such an open and encouraging environment really makes a difference. 👉 For future volunteers: don’t hesitate, go for it. It’s a complete, human and immersive experience that allows you to learn, grow and leave with wonderful memories.
