Description

Hello! Abi and Ben recently arrived in Australia both with a working holiday visa and are looking to explore new areas & meet new people and workaway seems perfect! Ben (25, from Kansas) has a BA in Physics and hopes to become a teacher one day and Abi (21, from South of England) last year graduated with a BSc in Animal Behaviour Welfare & Conservation - both have experience working on animal farms, vegetable farms, gardens, and as children camp counsellors and are excited to help wherever they can, have fun & giggles, and learn new skills wherever they end up! :) Abi loves the arts (musicals, live-music, movies - may hear her singing from time-to-time!) and is a keen baker, walker & reader. Ben plays an array of instruments & loves to make songs on his laptop, and is a fan of sports, and exploring nature.

Ben and Abi stayed with us for about 3 weeks. We very much enjoyed their company and their work ethic is great! They worked mainly in the garden, which at times was rather cold and wet. They never complained, turned up on time and always gave it their best - resulting in good outcomes.
We can highly recommend them to the workaway community.

We stayed with Peter & Tinne for just over 2 weeks and it was a lovely, very comfy stay! They were both very friendly, great company and ensured we had everything we needed.

Ben and Abi were fabulous workawayers. It was a absolute pleasure to share our home with them. They were hard working and good natured, with a happy and positive attitude, ready to do anything that was asked of them. The help they gave got me through a very busy period of work, I'm very grateful they were so self-motivated. My pantry and drawers … read more

We stayed with Ally (husband Geoff was away) for 3 weeks and what an incredible stay it was! Ally was very friendly, instantly made us feel comfortable in her home, was always checking in on us & great company. Most tasks involved deep cleaning inside the home/the balcony, tidying & organising (my favourite was organising the pantry!). If we made … read more

We stayed with Vanessa for a month and had a wonderful time. Vanessa was always so friendly and welcoming and made sure we were comfortable - her partner Dan & daughters (often in the home) were also friendly. Most of the work was daily house chores like taking care of cats, cleaning the house and pool, and weeding, as well as driving her daughter … read more
