vom Host (Vegetable garden help on our ...) für Workawayer ()

The week with Alan and Tessa went far too quickly! They were ideal house guests and we spent many mealtimes having great discussions with this worldly couple. They were very willing to take on whatever tasks we gave them and carried them out with care and attention to detail. Tessa prepared a south African meal for us one night that was delicious!… read more

Vom Workawayer () für Host (Permaculture farm with cob ...)

My wife and I have just spent three weeks on the permaculture farm with Kathryn and Ross, farm hands as it were. This was our first experience with Workaway but it won't be our last.
First off let it be known that the concept of permaculture, the word itself in fact, was foreign to our ears just two short months ago. That has changed. We went… read more
