The best part of volunteering? Meeting a bunch of new friends (and bananas)! Check out the winning images in September 2025’s photo competition to view our community’s most memorable travel moments.
We love to see how travelling as a volunteer not only brings stunning views, but also warmth and community in May 2025’s Workaway photo competition. Get inspired to see the world in a different way!
There's no better classroom than nature, and this applies to both children and grown-ups! With a dream of starting her own permaculture farm, Fenia didn’t let the role of being a single mother stop her, and together with her son Adam, they embark on a series of farming adventures through Workaway.
When we were planning our honeymoon, we thought we can make the best of our round-the-world trip by experiencing the rural lifestyle as a farmer via workaway, as a test to make sure we weren’t just romanticizing the idea of living on a farm (especially because we were both working office jobs in New York City)! We were also hoping that the new skill set we would gain can really carry us through our big retirement plan of living on a ranch or a farm.
In our brand-new ‘Workaway Ambassadors’ blog series, they will share their volunteering stories, travel hacks, tips and more to inspire you. Next up is the story of Workaway Ambasssador Nina (teamed up to travel together with Giuse), a born-and-raised city girl who left the comforts of home to experience life in rural Chile. Her story truly illustrates the transformative power of travel and cultural exchange!
Can you believe it’s been over a year since we first started interviewing Workawayers from around the globe. What a beautiful experience to be a part of! And without further a do let’s jump into this months, and Celeste a photographer who has just returned from Scotland!
