Workaway reviews, feedback and ratings - page 9

Su and Wolfgang is amazing couple. I have had fantastic time for 12 days in their house . I believe that I perhaps will be able meet with this host again in future.

All good there. We had some issue with the caravan but we fix it. Ewald is a nice person and keen to help you.

I really enjoyed my experience there at the ecovillage! I worked with Jen, Brian and Leah with differents shifts, mainly focusing on Leah’s permaculture garden. My contribute was about to dig and dob the soil, to paint and more tasks outdoors, 3h x 5 days in exchange of a comfy place to stay. The family is so kind and quite open to communicate and, above all, to the listening :) Thank you guys! I hope to see you next time!

Our time with Cole was amazing. She was so friendly, such a great cook, and such a good teacher when it came to the things she needed help with on the farm. The farm is in a quaint and lovely part of New Zealand with beautiful sunsets. The animals are cute and so much fun to work with. It is a farm and we definitely got our hands dirty so be prepared for “the farm life” when attending. Overall, the conversation shared between us was so inspiring and thought provoking and Cole is just an amazing human! Such a great week! My wife and I feel very fortunate to have had this opportunity and to meet Cole ❤️

It was really lovely to have Athira stay with us for a couple of weeks.....the only problem was that we would have loved for her to stay longer! She became part of our family in that short period. Athira is so easy to get along with and an interesting conversationalist with a great outlook on life. She was so good with our son who has autism showing him much kindness, patience and understanding. Athira is courteous and respectful, motivated and very good at finding things to do when we had nothing organised yet. She worked confidently in the garden (collecting manure, picking and processing produce, etc), helped with cleaning, general kitchen duties and worked in a not-for-profit community nursery, but when she cooked it was a pleasure for us all. Athira loves to cook and we all loved to eat what she made for us. We learnt many new dishes, often with and Indian theme and we'll definitely be trying some of them ourselves. The caramelised onion and egg pastries are a favourite in southern India and were just devine!! We are hoping for a revisit one day (we miss her already) and can highly recommend Athira to any prospective hosts.

I spend a week for my first Workaway experience with Brett and another Workawayer. Together we cut wood, took care of olive trees, the vineyard, did some weeding and some other tasks. I really enjoyed my stay - I had an own room with a very! comfortable queen size bed :) Besides work we enjoyed lovely food and also made a very good Pavlova! The overall experience couldn't have been better- I learned a lot about gardening, improved my English, used my free time to explore the beautiful area and looked for a car to buy. But the best was spending time with Brett , the other Workawayer and on the weekend with Brett's partner as well. Furthermore we saw the Aurora Borealis, did a Trip to Little River, to Akaroa and also to the Peninsula. I’ve gained many new memories and experiences that I’m sure will stay with me. Thank you Brett!

Laura had great disposition to help around the house; she was friendly with family and friends, and had great interest in learning more about Mexican culture and life in general. I would highly recommend her for a workaway experience!

There’s so much to say — this was truly an adventure! We stayed here for two months during the winter. It was an amazing experience, but also intense and definitely not easy, so best suited for outdoorsy people who don’t mind hard work:) The place is very remote (the closest town is about three hours away), but the nature is stunning and close encounters with wild animals are almost guaranteed. Jennifer and David are amazing people — kind, generous, and welcoming. You really feel like part of the family, and they take great care of you. At the same time, the environment can be a bit chaotic and sometimes overwhelming, but if you stay open-minded, it becomes part of the experience. You’ll also have the chance to learn many new skills and try things you might not otherwise. We’re very grateful for this unique, challenging, and rewarding experience:)

Luca is a wonderful person. We chatted a great deal on the first day we met. His friend Michele is also amazing—he helped us at our farm, and Luca organized a beautiful sound bath on our terrace, which I, along with some other participants, enjoyed a lot. It’s been great hosting you, Luca. Wishing you all the very best.

Alessia and Casper are truly the kind of Workawayers every host hopes to meet. They are kind, thoughtful, clean, and well-organized. What touched us most was how proactive they were — always observing, helping, and exploring different ways to contribute, even before we could fully explain things. They joined village activities with genuine respect and openness, and everyone was so happy to have them around. More than helpers, they became dear friends to us. We shared many meaningful moments and conversations about life that we will always remember. Thank you for your time with us — it really meant a lot. Wishing you both a beautiful journey ahead, and we hope our paths will cross again someday.

I have been 4 Weeks on Adams Farm. A beautiful place to forget the world world around you. Adam is taking great care for all the people in his team and is creating a warm open minded and peaceful environment. It was a pleasure to be part of it. Would love to come back one day.

Satyam is a very nice young man. Reliable hard working and very easy to get along with. His English is quite good and he helped me out with classes and cleaning the hostel. Was a pleasure to host and get to know him. Highly recommended.

Thank you AJ for your feedback. It was a great pleasure to host you. Your skills, attitude and openness to have a go at whatever, really made you a wonderfull guest. You also have a gift working with others. That coupled with your kindness and respect, makes you a great team leader. I have thoroughly enjoyed the time when you and 3 other contributing guests were here. We had a lot of fun and you were certainly a quiet instigator for making it special for all of us. I wish you a great many blessings on your journey. Dont hesitate to make another last minute request if you would be back in the hood. Margreet

I stayed three weeks at their Residence in Kampot and got the chance to dive into nonprofit work in Cambodia. You jump right into different projects that help sustain the NGOs work, from social media posts, promoting their own water production sale or creating banners, flyers etc. And of course the best few hours during the weekdays, English teaching to local kids (:

I stayed at Shay and Ems place for a little over a month to look after the house and pets whilst they were on holiday. I had the most amazing time - the cats and possum are super cute and the house is so peaceful. I had a really relaxing stay and would recommend to anyone who is looking for some peace and solitude. Shay and Em were also great at checking in on me and answering any questions I had whilst they were away. Ensure you have your own transport to stay here as the house is very remote. Thanks for having me!

With great enthusiasm, newly- engaged Pearly and Hiroki arrived with open hearts and minds ready for action. These beautiful souls couldn't do enough for us during their stay. They followed through to a high standard of completion, many assigned tasks that were on our 'to do' list . Nothing was too onerous. They melded well with our family, including dogs.Their consideration and respect at all times was appreciated . We were all in awe of the exquisite meals they prepared and shared. To have keen cooks here is a HUGE help. It was a treat to be a part of their new life together. Pearly and Hiroki, we wish you both good health and a happy future together.

I had such a brilliant time at Gills farm! She is so kind and warm to have interesting chats with. I loved hanging out with all your animals - especially Bruce the rabbit. It was a fun experience also meeting the local permaculture community! The farm has a really cool set up, and it’s so peaceful being in the Irish countryside. I enjoyed preparing the garden for planting, and mulching around bushes etc. and feeding the chickens. If you can rent a car I would recommend as there’s so many beautiful sites within a 45 min drive including beautiful lakes and waterfalls you can swim in! Thank you Gill for such a good experience.

MIchelle es una muy dulce y entusiasta joven, llena de energía y cordialidad. Desde el inicio demostró sus grandes habilidades y conocimientos con las plantas, su ayuda con los platos después de comer siempre la valoramos demasiado, muchas gracias por eso. Tiene gran capacidad para conectar y comunicarse, fue muy agradable contar con su presencia.

Tatzy has been a delightful guest. She fitted in with everything and has made a noticeable impression on the garden joining in willingly with our autumn tasks. Being independent and having her own passions and interests means Tatzy is such an easy exchange guest as she is more than happy to enjoy her time off and explore the surrounding area. Meals were a treat as she seemed to love Steve’s cooking..and helped with everything. We’d welcome her back anytime, and can definitely recommend her to anyone.
