Left by host for Workawayer (Jantje)
Jantje is a very lovely and perceptive young woman. Her gardening skills are exceptional, and she had a quick understanding of just what I wanted done . Jantje only had to be told once, and she just got on with the job.
Jantje really enjoys being in the garden, and helped a lot in mine in the short 3 days she stayed with me. She cleaned out my

We shared meals together, and talked a lot, and I found her to be a very thoughtful, caring, intelligent young woman, with a lot to give to the world.
I believe anyone who is lucky enough to have Jantje come to do Workaway will be very happy to meet her, and pleased with the work she does.
I would certainly welcome her back to my house any time.

Staying at Francesca's place was a truly special experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed and at home. She has an incredible way of making everyday life feel meaningful – whether it was through her amazing cooking, a really good coffee, or the lovely conversations we shared.
During my stay, I helped with various tasks around

We also shared some really nice moments outside of the daily routine – we went to yoga together and even spent some time at the beach, which made the experience even more enjoyable and well-rounded.
What stood out to me most was the peaceful atmosphere and her thoughtful way of living, which made it easy to settle in and enjoy the days. It was not just about helping out – it was a genuine cultural exchange and a chance to slow down and connect.
I’m really grateful for the time I spent there and would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone open to learning, helping, and enjoying good company.

Barbara is a truly amazing woman, and very very capable in all things to do with gardening and landscaping. In the month that she stayed with me, she transformed my whole garden, giving me good advice re the trees that had to be pruned, doing the job very capably with both electric saw and hand saw. She worked carefully and methodically, and

Barbara also tackled my cleaning tasks with enthusiasm, mostly involving being on a ladder, cleaning fans and light fittings. General household cleaning was not a problem for Barbara, and I give her heartfelt thanks for all of the help which she gave me.
Barbara is friendly, thoughtful and easy to get along with, and was very good company to have around.
Barbara is a true gem amongst Workawayers, and I would welcome her back.Feedback
