Workaway reviews, feedback and ratings - page 7

Seven was a very good volunteer: enthusiastic, hard working, pleasant to host. She values physical fitness, and keeps herself in good shape, working out daily and attending all the yoga classes. She did some devotional songs in Chinese for our radio station using AI. We'd welcome her back any time.

Mrs. Isabelle a wonderful women, amazing and joyful person to have around. I enjoyed sharing my cooking skills with her and also learning from her about Canada and her cooking skills. I enjoyed all the food she made for us. Having her around felt great and I regain this spark I never thought I had out. Isabelle is so full of life, helpful outgoing and we love and miss her so much, we can't wait to have you back with us ❤️🇧🇿.

Corinna was a wonderful and outgoing person. Very friendly,respectful and easy to work with.My family and I enjoyed her company, Having her around felt like another daughter in my care and i surely miss her so much. I can't wait to have her back with us. Wishing her all the best on her travel journey. We love you Corinna ❤️

Discover the warm and welcoming home of Amel & Bertrand in the Laurentians, where you’ll have your own calm and cozy space after spending a beautiful day with the girls. Dancing, playing hide-and-seek, drawing, building snow dens… the main tasks mostly involved taking care of the children and doing the dishes. Bonne continuation!

Viktoria was reliable, positive and willing to get involved in different tasks around the Temple and kitchen. She brought a calm and happy energy to the space and we definitely would recommend her to other hosts.

Miklos was very kind, he even helped us with a move we had in our company, he shared and got along very well with our daughter.

I had a really great time at Evonne's farm. She is super nice and Darell and the dogs are awesome. In the morning you walk with the dogs and in the afternoon you do some work in the garden or cook dinner which wasn't hard. I had the chance to talk to them about everything and it was really important for them that you have your 2 days off. They showed us the small town around the house and it was really amazing to have such nice people around me. Thank you for the time and everything!

From the day of our arrival, Rosa and Vincent treated us like their daughters. As two young female travelers we felt so safe and welcomed. They have become like a second family to us. We loved playing with their animals and grew special bonds with the dogs and cats. We loved helping bring Rosa and Vincent's vision to reality by building a camp ground for future travelers. We are so grateful for Rosa's amazing cooking - her food is honestly amazing and she did so much for us! We experienced so much of Belizean culture, joining their family on cave tours, jungle hikes, boat trips and other family days out. It was also so wonderful to meet a family with such a strong faith and be able to share in our beliefs. Thank you so much to all of the family. We miss you very much and hope we will come and visit you again. Lots of love, Amy and Lauren

Jana was the perfect workawayer. She saw what needed to be done and just did it. After our heavy snowfall this winter Jana shoveled the driveway with no complaints. Jana is a strong girl and loves the outdoors. She cooked delicious dinners and always offered to help me. Jana has a keen sense of boundaries; being there when you need her and going out for her daily walks. Jana kept in touch with me when she was out asking if I had something for her to do later. Her personality is upbeat and positive. Jana knows that I love my cats and left me pancakes shaped like cats when she left. If you have a chance to have Jana join your home, you won't regret it, grab her! Thank you Jana!

Elke is an amazing person, full of stories and ideas. She knows so much about the island, to be hosted by her and a discover the area through her eyes and knowledges is a real privilege. Her house itself is magic ! A big yellow house that olds memories, juste looking at it you can feel it has resisted so many storms already. Just sitting at the table and having a chat with Elke and her roomate Katja gives you a feeling of safety and calm.

We really liked our experience at Ricardo's place! He is a caring person, He's always in a good mood and always wants to spend quality time with his volunteers. Also, he leaves us a lot of liberty in the projects that we want to do. For example, he didn't have a project for a garden but we proposed to him to do one and he was very enthusiastic about our idea. He helped us with some ideas and he got us all the material we needed. The environment is very fun to work at since it is in the beautiful jungle and Ricardo is always playing some good music for everyone to be in a good mood. Ricardo even invited us at his social events with his friends! We got to learn salsa and to do mayan canoe. We really had a blast, thank you Ricardo!

Emily — Front of House Emily joined us for a full season and was an absolute asset from day one. As our front of house, she was the face of the chalet — warm, welcoming, and consistently brilliant with guests. No request was too much trouble, and she had a natural ability to make everyone feel at home from the moment they arrived. Beyond her guest-facing work, Emily brought a positive attitude to everything she did and was completely reliable throughout the season. She went above and beyond time and again without ever being asked. Any host would be lucky to have her — we'd welcome her back in a heartbeat. Mike — Snow Ops & Maintenance Mike worked with us for a full season handling snow operations and maintenance, and he was outstanding in every respect. He kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes — no small feat in a mountain environment where conditions can change quickly and things inevitably need fixing. Hardworking and dependable, Mike got on with the job without fuss and always went the extra mile when it counted. His positive attitude made him a genuine pleasure to have as part of the team, and guests benefited from his work even if they never knew it. We couldn't recommend him more highly.

Freddie is a very sociable and modest person. He helped us teach French to children and teenagers at the center. He was always friendly and had a good connection with the students. He also helped at home with the other volunteers, especially with cooking and doing the dishes, which we really appreciated. Freddie was respectful and easy to live with. I highly recommend him to other hosts.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure having you here. Your help on the farm was very appreciated, and you always had a great attitude with every task, even the ones that involved getting a little dirty. It was really nice sharing this time with you, the conversations, the meals, and the daily life on the farm. You were very respectful, easygoing, and open to the experience, which made everything very enjoyable for us. I definitely recommend you as a volunteer to other hosts. You were always open to any task and approached everything with a positive attitude, which makes a big difference in farm life. We’re very happy you got to explore and enjoy the valley and other beautiful places in Ecuador. You are always welcome back anytime. Safe travels and enjoy the rest of your adventures! 🌿🐄🐶🐈✨

Nous sommes restés 3 semaines chez Teiki et cela s’est très bien passé! Nous avons principalement aidé à faire des petits travaux de construction et de peinture, et nous sommes allés dans la brousse. Teiki s’est montré accueillant et bienveillant envers nous, nous avons partagé beaucoup de moments ensemble. Merci Teiki pour ces 3 semaines passées ensemble, et de nous avoir permis de découvrir Nuku Hiva de manière authentique !😀

I had a wonderful time staying with Sharyn and David in their lovely home, they were the perfect hosts for my first workaway. They were always very helpful, giving me lifts to places and providing tasty meals. The caravan was very cosy and it was really nice to have my own place after staying in hostels for 2 months. Finally, I have to mention the brilliant location and the grandkids who rounded up a great stay.

It was truly a pleasure having you both here. Your help on the farm was very valuable, and I really appreciated your positive attitude and willingness to contribute to the daily work. Beyond the work, your company made everything very enjoyable and easygoing. It was wonderful sharing meals, conversations, and moments around the farm together. I also loved how open you were to learning about and experiencing the culture of my country. You are always welcome back here anytime. I wish you both many more amazing adventures on your travels! 🌿🐄🐶🐈

Motte, was a wonderful workawayer who carried out every task requested. We loved the evening chats and loved the cooking she did for our evening dinners. Painting , gardening and land clearing was all done with a smile. We highly recommend Motte to any host and wish her all the best with her travels.

Pasamos 6 semanas perfectas con David y Alex en la finca. Estuvimos haciendo un trabajo super interesante - principalmente bajando café - aprendiendo todo el proceso y trabajo que se lleva al cabo para terminar tomando un café! Los horarios eran muy claros, el trabajo muy bien explicado y organizado y con un ambiente muy relajante y abierto. Tuvimos nuestro propio espacio separado que nos permitió convivir muy fácilmente sin que sea demasiado intenso. Con David y Alex, siento que hemos encontrado amigos por vida! Platicamos y cenamos juntos todos los días y nos hicieron sentirnos completamente bienvenidos en su casa. Martha estaba aprendiendo español, y le vino super bien estas horas conversando todas las noches - mejoró muchísimo su nivel de español. Aprendimos mucho con ellos, y estuvo muy bonito pasar 6 semanas todo el tiempo afuera en el bonito clima de Jalisco! Creo que nunca nos hemos sentidos tan en paz y tan relajados en nuestras vidas que estando en la finca - y me imagino que cuando estemos de vuelta en Inglaterra que pensaremos todo el tiempo la vida que tuvimos ahí!! Un abrazo fuerte y gracias por todo!

Ophélie and Juan were wonderful volunteers. The kind who leave a lasting impression on a place, one you won't forget. They're a fantastic couple. She's excellent with horses; she truly loves them and is very dedicated to learning and training them. Juan, on the other hand, was the chainsaw king of the farm! I think he cut down mountains of firewood, enough to last five winters! :D Plus, they're both great cooks. They would truly be the perfect couple to hire and entrust with a large project. We are eternally grateful. Sojamm!
