Workaway reviews, feedback and ratings - page 3

I volunteered for just one day with Kassim and his team but had an amazing time. They are all super friendly. The work is meaningful and fun

Allison is a kind person and good with the dogs, she does what she has too. She needs a little bit of encouraging in order to complete tasks, but she has a good attitude, and takes advice with no problems.

Amazing experience with Isaac in Ruboni. The scenery is insanely beautiful. Isaac is very generous and communicative. He will take great care of you and make sure you are comfortable and happy.

Arriving at Francesco's place, nestled amongst the olive trees, felt like coming home to an old friend. We had a great time together while working on various projects: planting trees, tidying up around the olive trees, building an outdoor shower and laying the terrace flooring. Francesco also offered amazing local, fresh food at the barbecue....he loves fire and is also very kind and attentive to everyone's needs, showing us the best places to swim, jump into pools and enjoy the stunning landscape with the nuraghe nearby. I will definitly come back. Thank you for everything

I spent six weeks (January-mid February) with Lucia and I'm really happy about it. Lucia is a lovely person, very busy but she still found time for me and talked to me about Italian culture. I loved spending time with the horses, improving my riding skills thanks to Lucia's advice, and the confidence she showed in letting me go horseback riding on my own. Everyone I met there was super nice. The dogs are adorable too. On my days off, I was able to visit many towns by bus or train (a 20-30 minute drive to the station). I would love to come back and see everyone (and all the horses) again.

Thanks a lot for having me! After figuring out the first few days how I could make myself useful and found out how things work (as I had experienced less flexible and diverse workaway places before) I very much enjoyed being part of this space, even if I needed to leave after just one week already. Especially the meals we shared and the conversations we had I’ll keep in good memory. He knows so much and it’s super interesting to listen to him! I hope next time I’ll be able to stay longer! Looking forward to seeing everything that’ll have changed by then:) Danke und auf Wiedersehen! Greta

Gabin y Laura fueron voluntarios maravillosos para recibir. Son personas muy agradables, cercanas y fáciles de convivir. Siempre fueron muy respetuosos con el espacio y con todos aquí. Desde el primer día mostraron una disposición genuina para ayudar y aportar en lo que hiciera falta. Trabajaron con buena actitud y siempre estuvieron contentos de colaborar. Más allá del trabajo, disfrutamos mucho su presencia aquí. Trajeron una energía tranquila y positiva, y fue realmente un gusto compartir el día a día con ellos. Los volvería a recibir sin dudarlo y los recomiendo totalmente a cualquier anfitrión.

I had a wonderful time volunteering here! It’s an amzing place, with lovely people and a beautiful large garden. There is a lot to learn and discover on the farm, the kind and knowledgeable staff members are happy to explain everything. I learned a lot about different plants, like the shiva eye tree and coffee tree’s. The process of coffee picking, drying and roasting is super interesting. It’s a super good opportunity to see traditional nepalese village life, and beautiful nature, with mountains made into terraces, and all kinds of birds flying around. The work is interesting and diverse (depending on the season of course), I was here in end February, the coffee harvest season. On my free day I went hiking with one of the staff members, this was a super good experience! I saw a lot of villages, stupa’s and temples. The food is super tasty, healthy and abundant👌🏼 It's is a very clean place, good toilet and hot shower, and very comfortable room. All in all I would really recommend this place for anyone who is looking to learn more about organic farming, nepalese village life, nepalese ecosystem and meet wonderful people❤️

This was my first Workaway experience and as someone who doesn't like Public Speaking, in the end I was Happy to see how I overcame my fears of doing the tours. The ladies that run the Restaurant/Shop are the sweetest, very motherly and their cooking is amazing. The kids that hang around are the cutest, always laughing and playing - Reminding you to cherish the simple things. The owners of the farm are also very down to earth and offer words of encouragement should you need it. All and All, I appreciate my time here - I Will miss the Beautiful Views of the Surrounding Area!

Two weeks turned into over three months. In the end, I found a kind of home here. I was warmly welcomed and immediately fell in love with Anca's cooking. Together with Alexandra, I helped with or independently carried out many different projects on the grounds and in the house. From painting and building to harvesting and tending to driving tractors and balancing 😉 There is always work to be done, so you usually have the choice of what you want to do. I quickly took the people and animals into my heart, integrated myself and celebrated at parties. It was a very special time for me and I will definitely come back. You don't often find such great places and people in this world.

had the honour of being Elaine’s first Workawayer! I can guarantee that you will not only feel safe, but also be very well taken care of. “Nobody starves in this house,” as Elaine says. She is easygoing and very open to meeting new people. She warmly opens her home to you and makes you feel at ease straight away. I had my own bedroom and even a private bathroom. I worked in the garden, walked the dog (going to miss lovely Vegas!), and helped around the house. Tasks may vary depending on what needs to be done and the talents you bring. I had a wonderful time with Elaine.

Really hardworking couple , who helped me so much at my place. Very independent with tasks and responsibilities. Enjoyed them staying a great deal 🤩

Yulinn was incredibly helpful and truly a multitalent. She knows how to cook, clean, and gets along wonderfully with the kids. Her patience, cheerfulness, and calm nature made everything so much easier for me and more enjoyable. She especially loves baking and surprising everyone with desserts, which of course the kids really appreciate!

My time at Lorenzo's house in Gavoranno was so special, being a solo female traveler he made me feel comfortable as soon as I arrived. We worked about five hours a day cleaning the front entry to the house but the time flew by, overlooking the mountains in the Tuscan sun. We shared our meals together (what a great cook!), talked about life, and I am lucky to be able to call Lorenzo my friend. What a pleasure to be in nature with such good company. The work was fulfilling and since the property is quite large, I'm happy I was able to contribute in a meaningful way. I would recommend this experience to anyone who loves gardening and is ready to get their hands dirty :) Thanks so much for everything Lorenzo!

I was hosted by Michelle for the month of February. It was a wonderful experience! Michelle is a wonderful person and very helpful. You can see his passion for animals. Cats are wonderful, you can't help but get attached as well as dogs. The work I did at the sanctuary, if you can call it that, was cleaning and cuddling the animals. The apartment that Michelle kindly provided me has everything and is by the sea. I highly recommend having an experience with her, I have learned a lot about animals and Thai culture, I will definitely be back one day. Thanks again from the bottom of my heart Michelle!

Fran is a delightful workaway, easy going, organised and efficient and a very good house and pet sitter. We had total confidence in her and were able to leave animals and house in very capable hands. She was very helpful in creating websites and updating promotional materials on Canva. Fran inspired us by finishing writing her second book and we wish her every success for the future.

Antonio y Viola son una pareja joven, discreta y tranquilla. Hemos pasado casi 2 meses juntos y hemos logrado coger nos cariño y acabar una larga lista de mantenimiento. Antonio es muy profesional y autónomo con tareas de pintura, electricidad y también en el campo con la motosierra, desbrozadora y cualquier herramienta. Viola destaca en cuestiones de informática y redes pero está dispuesta a realizar cualquier otra cosa.

We really loved our volunteering experience with Mumbi in Kilifi. We helped her put up a fence, make a path, built composting boxes and little tasks here and there. We stayed for 2 months and wish we could have stayed forever. Mumbi was always recommending us things to do in the area and even showing us around the area, she is super fun and always there to help you. The accommodation was super nice, a comfortable room with an ensuite, common area with a fully equipped kitchen. If your looking for a really fun time with a nice host I highly recommend this Workaway. Thanks again Mumbi for everything, we will miss The Shamba Community and Miss Potato. All the best xxxx

I had a lovely time with Aine. She showed me markets, cafés and alternative restaurants/cinemas in the neighbourhood. We had nice morning walks with coffe and talks. She is a direct and open person, with a big knowlege and interest about health. The work was reasonable and times where flexibel. I had enough time to go out on my own and discover the city. She also helped me hire a bicycle at the station for a cheap price. This allowed me to explore the city even better.
