Workaway reviews, feedback and ratings - page 2

Jeremy was a great addition to our high season team. He is tri lingual (English, French and Spanish), was extremely willing to help with anything, friendly to guests, local staff and other work exchangers. He offered fantastic customer service, and really cared about doing the best job he could do. He brought a great energy to the team, and we would welcome him back any time. We highly recommend Jeremy for any future positions, as he is the kind of person who will always give his best effort to any job.

It was the best experience of my life to stay with Sabrina, Mirko, and their three adorable kids. I was a bit nervous at first because of my limited experience with vegan cooking, but Sabrina and Mirko were appreciative and supportive of all the meals I prepared. They are people with beautiful souls, and it was an absolute pleasure staying with them. They always made time to answer my questions and made me feel welcome. The kitchen and my room were both very spacious and comfortable. I will miss everything! I would definitely return in the future if I have the chance.

Kristina was a fantastic volunteer and we are so sad to see her go! We were lucky enough to host her twice - and both times she went above and beyond what we expected. She got along great with the other members of our team and was truly a team player when we needed her most. She was calm in high intensity situations and brought joy to so many of our guests during her stay. We would love for Kristina to come back and join our team again ! She will be an asset to any host is lucky enough to have her!

What an incredible opportunity!! I volunteered to teach English for 4 weeks, and it has been one of the most pivotal and best experiences ever. I could not recommend this opportunity to work with this organization more to anyone. This was my first ever Workaway opportunity, as well as time abroad. This will definitely have you dive into more of the culture and locals way of life. You get out what you put in. The students are so lovely and the teachers and local community was more than I could have asked for. Hani was also such an amazing host and quickly made me feel seen and heard and answered all of my questions! Hani made this very scary step for me very easy and helped with every step of the way. Again if you are looking for a genuine and new and better perspective of yourself and this world, I highly recommend this foundation.

Sarndra is an exceptional human being and we loved our week with her! She is kind, creative, resourceful and free spirited. She is like a favourite aunt that all the cousins want to spend time with. She made delicious vegetarian food for her team of workawayers and showed interest in each of us. Her house has a beautiful view of St. Clair beach and she told us wonderful tales about her rich and adventurous life. She thoughtfully sent us off on the train with a care package from the farmers market. Sarndra, there is always a cozy bed with a "hottie" at our house in Nova Scotia for you. with deep gratitude, Zenovia, Tyler and Metro

Adrienne was an absolute joy to host at our farm. From the moment she arrived, she jumped right in with enthusiasm, kindness, and a wonderful can-do attitude. She worked alongside our team in the barn, helped feed baby lambs — even at 3 a.m. — and never once complained, no matter how early, cold, or messy farm life got. On top of that, she cooked incredible meals for everyone and brought such a positive energy into our home. Adrienne is always smiling, easy to talk to, and a truly thoughtful person who contributes far beyond the work itself. Even after returning home, she continued helping us remotely, which says so much about her character and dedication. We feel very lucky to have met her and would welcome her back anytime with open arms. Any host would be fortunate to have Adrienne as part of their Workaway experience.

I loved the divine food and outdoor showers. Lane is a great cook and I learned some new recipes. It's an unique experience to live at Lanes place. Hopefully I can come back once to sleep at the new cabaña he is building.

My stay with Hiroë and Jos near Nara was a truly enriching experience. I learned a lot about regenerative farming, food forests, sustainability, and self-sufficiency — but also about Japanese culture, cuisine, and thoughtful long-term living. Jos and Hiroë are very open-minded, experienced, and generous in sharing their knowledge and ideas. Our dinner conversations were just as inspiring as the work itself. The work was physically demanding (which I really enjoyed), always meaningful, and never too long. The separate volunteer house was beautiful and comfortable, and the day with the local volunteers was another highlight — a great sense of community and shared purpose. I leave feeling grateful and inspired, taking with me not only practical skills but also a lot of new perspectives. Thank you both for this special experience.

My stay at encas place was probably the best welcome I could have had in argentina. She and miguel where very interested in showing me the place, the city and the cultur of argentina. My task was to repair some chairs and mow some weeds - all in all very doable. Muchissima gracias !

I really enjoyed my stay with Jo! She was super welcoming and generous, helping me out with lifts and providing all my food. I could choose what I wanted to do for work and I didn’t have to do too many hours. Otautau is quite a quiet place but a good spot to relax and take a break from intense travelling.

Nimo is truly one of the best Workaway hosts I have ever had. From the very beginning, she was my number one supporter and did everything she could to make sure I had an amazing time in Sydney. She is a loving mother and an incredibly strong and inspiring woman who always puts others before herself. Another thing I really appreciated was how fair and well-organized the working schedule was. My tasks were always clearly explained, reasonable, and never too much. The working hours were flexible and well balanced, which gave me plenty of free time to discover Sydney, meet new people, and enjoy my stay to the fullest. Nimo was always understanding and considerate, making sure that I felt comfortable with the workload and the schedule. During my stay, I felt incredibly welcome and completely comfortable in her home and with her family. They always respected my privacy when I needed some time for myself, but they were also there for me whenever I wanted to talk or spend time together. Nimo never expected too much from me and always treated me with kindness, fairness, and appreciation. Uzzy is a very well-behaved and sweet child, and it was a joy to spend time with him. Overall, it was not just a stay, but a truly enriching and unforgettable experience. I’m very grateful and would highly recommend her as a host. I would also be very happy to come back after my three weeks on the East Coast to continue supporting her and her family.

It was an absolute pleasure to host Louis for a little more than two weeks. He is friendly, easy going and very polite . Louis fitted easily into our life here with lots of different tasks and activities. We experienced Louis as curious and open minded, always happy to give different tasks a try. I definitely recommend him to other hosts and wish him well for the remainder of his trip.

I feel so lucky to have lovely Workawayers like Noa. Noa will fit into any situation as he is very respectful, honest , and quiet and joyful. Always wears a genuine smile. Noa has left as he got a job quite a distance away from me but I have told him he can visit anytime for a catch-up and a cuddle from Django as he loved him even experienced bathing my dog and helping us yarding & drenching huge big rams although we kept Noa at a safe distance he loved working with animals. May your work be fun Noa. GG

We helped with IT related things on his laptop, like replying to emails, writing flyers asking for donations, and help with writing different texts for posters in the museum. I think this is really important work to make sure and the museum get enough donations to ensure the demiming team can continue working in safety. The accomodation was also good with a big private room, and private bathroom. The other people around the museum are all friendly. Please help this place if you can and if you have the time, to make Cambodia safe from landmines. Even a few hours of volunteering is really helpfull, so if you have limited time, you don't need to stay one or more nights.

Claire and Henry are two of the most helpful, practical and friendly people you could meet. They are an absolute dream team - working together to get jobs done quickly and effectively, to a high standard. With Henry’s building experience and their collective DIY skills they were able to help us with some skilled building work during the week they stayed. They also helped out with babysitting our toddler, accompanying him to Playcenter and pitched in proactively with housework and cleaning. They were fantastic company and made the most of their time in our little town - even catching our dinner a few times with their fishing and diving 😊 We would happily host them again anytime!

My Workaway experience with this family was absolutely amazing. They are all wonderful people. They were incredibly patient with me, especially regarding the language barrier. They were always very clear about my tasks and responsibilities, which mainly included vacuuming, picking up Calixte from school, helping with light housework, and simply sharing quality time with them. It was honestly very hard to leave after staying for such a long period. We truly connected and shared so many great moments. I highly recommend this host if you are looking to improve your French or want to experience the authentic lifestyle of a French family. The family members are all unique: Calixte is a very special person. He loves board games and will patiently correct your French every time. He is also very competitive, so don't expect him to let you win at basketball! Axel is a young man with great potential. He enjoys playing chess and the drums; he is passionate about everything he does and always looks for a way to connect with others. Messalyne is an excellent cook and an incredible mother (who will definitely tease you if you button your shirt wrong!). Jeremie is a true gentleman, always up for a good conversation, helping you discover new things, and capturing interesting moments through his photography. I’m so grateful for this time together.

I stay 1 week in the caravan where has a big space for more than 2ppl. I could cook as well with every kind of kitchen tools, even there were air-frier. When you just walked around there, lovely dog named Django will follow you. Then there are various animals, as like horse and sheeps and cats! We sometimes had a meal together and watching a funy TV series. I miss her crustini. She gave me a lot of veg and fruits, that was soooo fresh! Even though it was just a one week, I will remember this good memories for a long time.

I had a wonderful time in the Bay of Islands with Konny, Stefan and 2 other Workawayers for a bit more than two weeks. They made me feel completely comfortable around their property and it was really exciting to participate in their fantastic project. There are plenty of ways to help them, including taking care of their adorable dogs, sheep, and chickens. Spending time with them and sharing delicious food they prepared every day was a pleasure, I would surely recommend the entire experience :)

Ruby, was my first oficial volunteer in workaway and it couldn't have been better, she is an excellent person in any sense...Ruby is the perfect workawayer and any time welcome in our place.

We had a wonderful time with Victor. Surrounded by nature, far away from the tourist hustle and bustle, we were able to put our craftsmanship skills to the test and try our hand at new things. Whenever we needed help, Victor was always there to assist us. We will miss the many interesting conversations, the comfortable atmosphere and, above all, the wonderful breakfast. Thank you so much for everything!!! :))))
