I absolutely enjoyed my workaway with Andrew in May 2025. The main part of this workaway is cultural exchange. Andrew and I had very interesting chats during dinner about business, Australia, Fiji, coconuts and many other topics. During my stay I learned a lot about business and coffee. Even plans for a coffee roastery in Italy were initiated :D

Andrew is a very kind host who welcomed me with open arms. I felt comfortable from day one. Andrew is good at telling interesting stories of his life and a he's a very caring and reliable person . The dog sage is very lively as well as curious and brings variety into everyday life. The communication in advance was easy and we are still in touch.
Thanks again for this fantastic experience!

Andrew was a really awesome host! My work tasks were very manageable (making dinner and occasionally helping with some potting for the nursery), and I had plenty of free time for myself. We had dinner together every day, and I got to learn more about Andrew's interesting life, business, and travels so far.
I found the location to be very

I was able to take transit to the Blue Mountains and into Sydney relatively easily as well which were really fun visits.
Andrew truly went out of his way to make sure I was well fed and accommodated my vegetarian diet. I love fruit and was really curious to try some of the unique varieties available in Australia. Not only did Andrew find everything I wanted to try, but he also introduced me to some new fruits I’d never even heard of. I really appreciated that level of care and thoughtfulness!

I had a great time with Andrew for three weeks. I have to say he is the best host in the world:) He helped me a lot when I was in Australia while I was supposed to offer him some help. He ended up picking me up and dropping me off at the train station, cooking nice suppers for me, and answering my countless questions. I am very lucky because when

I stayed at Andrew’s place for five weeks. He taught me about coffee and gardening, and I helped him with some gardening work for a few hours in the mornings. It was an incredibly valuable experience, and I’m full of gratitude for the opportunity to hear Andrew’s life stories.
Andrew’s dog is very energetic, adorable, and a funny girl. I also
… read more felt happy to enjoy the delicious vegetables and fruits from the local area. The room is a single room with a fan, so it’s very comfortable. He explained everything in a way that was easy for me, as a beginner in English, to understand. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for accommodation near Sydney or those who love nature.
If you want to go sightseeing in Sydney, just let Andrew know, and he’ll kindly take you to the station. I’m sure it’ll be a wonderful destination for your journey. Good luck!We've noticed that there's less than 3 photos uploaded to your profile. With the new host profile layout this we would highly recommend having more than 3 photos so your profile stands out visually.
