...we are still very much in love with each other (hurray!) and have learnt that being grumpy or picking a fight is something we can take in stride, even during when we were working side by side in the garden or on some DIY projects."

By our fourth month in Southeast Asia and another two more to go, we realised that even though we were loving the trip, we were craving more interactions with local people, rather than simply moving from one beautiful place to another. We like that Workaway membership gives you access to all countries in the world. We registered while cycling to Greece and have been using Workaway ever since.

We’ve seen beautiful places, but it's connecting with those people when you're in their home and they're cooking you food, which is just … yeah, it's amazing. After you’ve finished your hours helping the host, you’ve still got half a day to go and explore the local area. Those little moments are the reason why we're doing Workaway.

When you sign up as a Workawayer you can access the host list and contact host families, NGOs or projects directly for one year to offer your help. You will also be able to find travel buddies, or contact other Workawayers for meet up or language exchange.
Workaway is a cultural exchange, you offer a few hours of help in exchange of food and accommodation.Take a look at the info on the site here again and if you have any more questions drop us a line.
To register as a Workawayer: https://www.workaway.info/en/signup/workawayer
Couple accounts are made for either friends, couples or families etc that ALWAYS travel together. It means you can share the cost rather than signing up as two individual members!
When you sign up to Workaway as a couple you should both fill in your details in the profile, but it's important to understand that any enquiry you make means you are applying for two.
If you are planning to travel just for a short while with your friend, we recommend that you sign up as individuals and link your profiles together so hosts know you are travelling together for that period of time.
